Post-Marketing Study of Smartlipo Procedure Reveals Significant Skin Tightening

SmartLipo is the original laser assisted liposuction system available for body contouring and lipo-sculpture. It provides a revolutionary and minimally invasive procedure for the removal of fat using a high-powered laser to sculpt body contours and tighten skin with less downtime and side effects.

Cosmetic patients seeking out the best Smartlipo should be encouraged by a recent study of Smartlipo MPX that showed significant improvements in skin tightening and new collagen markers in patients who participated. Smartlipo MPX, a MultiPlex technology, blends dual-wavelength lasers to dissolve fat cells and tighten skin. A dermatologist pioneered the original Smartlipo laser liposuction in the United States and led a clinical study on the new Smartlipo MPX that was recently presented at the annual conference of the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery (ASLMS).

In this most recent post marketing study, 20 subjects who reported unwanted skin laxity and localized fat were treated with the Smartlipo MPX. In five of these patients, temporary tattoo markings were used to measure skin tightening through surface area reduction in addition to pre- and post-surgical biopsies to test for the presence of new collagen markers. The study revealed significant decreases in fat deposits, as well as an 18% reduction in skin surface area, following the Smartlipo procedure. Patients rated their results as good to excellent in all cases and independent observers gave high ratings in all cases as well.

This study clearly demonstrates that significant skin tightening is a realistic expectation with Smartlipo. Not only that, but the procedure also encourages the formation of new collagen, which is extremely vital to skin tonicity.
