Laser Lipolysis (Smartlipo)


Some fats remain resistant even through dieting and physical exercise. These problem areas can now be treated through a laser assisted technology- a revolutionary concept.

Smartlipo is a breakthrough in technology performing Laser Lipolysis for removing excess fat deposits in more specific areas of the body. This is done safely and most importantly, effectively with minimal downtime.

Why Smartlipo?

  • Less invasive with no unsightly scars.
  • Reduced recovery time as it is a procedure that can be performed over lunch hour.
  • Treat areas unsuitable for traditional liposuction like forearms, upper abdomen, inner thighs, face and knees.
  • Promotes skin retraction and shrinkage.
  • Less blood loss with simultaneous coagulation of blood vessels.

What is Laser Lipolysis?

A technique that destroys fat deposits in specific areas of the body. The special laser system breaks down the membranes of fat cells where fats are then eliminated by the body in the most natural manner. It is a minimally invasive procedure that promotes a harmonious body shape within a short period of time. Patients are only given local anesthesia during the procedure.

How long is the procedure?

It takes approximately one hour depending on the size of the treated area. Patients can usually return to work after this lunchtime procedure.

Which parts of the body can Smartlipo be performed?

It is suitable for medium to slightly large sized individuals looking for targeted areas of their body to be reduced. It however doesn’t replace traditional liposuction, where larger areas can also be performed on.

How quick is recovery time?

Most people can return to their normal activities although it is advisable to avoid strenuous exercise, hot showers or intense massage for about 4-5 weeks.

Bruises and scars?

The occurrence of bruises and scars is much less compared to other more invasive procedures. The therapeutic effects of the laser coagulates the blood vessels immediately to reduce the trauma beneath the skin. On the other hand, the entry point for the laser treatment is so small that it does not require any stitches.

When will I see results?

Some may see results immediately while typically it may take two to three months for final results to come through.

Will it last?

Results are long term. It is important however to know that the treatment doesn’t guarantee one would never gain weight or accumulate fats in other areas of the body.
