The Slimlipo method not only removes the fat accumulated under the skin, but also increases collagen production in the skin, making the skin look tauter and younger.
Slim Lipo is one of the FDA approved laser lipolysis methods. It is also called laser assisted liposuction. It can be performed with local anesthesia and sedation anesthesia. Slim Lipo laser wave size is specific to fat tissue and does not damage other tissues other than fat. It directly explodes the fat cell membrane. The fat that liquefies and comes out of the cell is aspirated by the device and the very little part that cannot be aspirated is easily metabolized and excreted from the body.
The advantage of Slim Lipo over Smart Lipo is its superior skin tightening and stretching capacity due to better laser wavelength and energy. Slim Lipo is effective in areas such as waist, abdomen, back, hips, as well as arms, jowl, ankle, knee, inner leg and leg areas. These are the areas where patients are most uncomfortable. Because the fat in these areas does not disappear no matter how much weight is lost. This makes the body look overweight. However, thanks to Slim Lipo, you can get rid of the fat in these areas in a single session without bleeding, painless and general anesthesia. The fats eliminated with Slim Lipo surgery do not come back again. However, if the patient gains excess weight, there may be an increase in the existing fat tissue. In such cases, the procedure can be repeated. Patients can prevent this by doing sports and paying attention to their nutrition after Slim Lipo surgery. Of course, despite everything, as with all laser lipolysis procedures, it is possible to increase fat again. However, this is minimal with new generation laser lipolysis procedures such as Slim Lipo.
Before Slim Lipo surgery, the area is anesthetized by injecting a special solution. With sedation anesthesia, the procedure is painless and stress-free. There is no need for general anesthesia. Through 2 mm holes, the Slim Lipo probe is entered by adjusting the laser wavelength and energy. Laser beams targeting fat cells melt and aspirate the fat with photomechanical effect. Simultaneously, it stimulates skin fibroblasts with photothermal effect and provides skin stretching. Since there is no deformation, there is almost no bruising, swelling, tenderness, edema, pain after the procedure. A corset is worn to eliminate postoperative edema. However, the corset is removed in a shorter time than other methods.
After the procedure, the patient is able to leave within 1 hour and is discharged on the same day. He/she can return to his/her daily social and work life. Recovery is quite fast.
