Smartlipo™ in Long Island, NY
Smartlipo™ is one of the more popular, cutting-edge offerings available at Dr. Bourhill’s practice. Smartlipo utilizes laser technology to liquefy stubborn fat deposits within the top layers of your skin. This safe and effective method of fat removal ruptures the unwanted fat cells, and the remaining substance is removed through a tiny and discreet incision by Dr. Bourhill. SmartLipo patient’s love the fact that they experience less swelling, bruising and bleeding than traditional liposuction, because this technology seals blood vessels while attacking the trouble areas of fat. Since SmartLipo is a minimally invasive technique that only requires local anesthesia, patients will experience fewer risks, while realizing a quicker recovery time.
SmartLipo is ideal for patients who:
- are in good health
- maintain a regular exercise routine
- are within 25 lbs. of their ideal weight
- has one or more areas of stubborn body fat that have not responded well to diet or exercise
- are seeking to permanently remove these areas of body fat
Like any other plastic surgery procedure, when choosing to go with SmartLipo, you must have realistic expectations. SmartLipo, similar to liposuction, is not a solution for weight loss. SmartLipo can improve upon your self-confidence and appearance, so think about your body image goals and discuss them at a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Bourhill at his Huntington, New York office.
