Choosing the right surgeon for laser liposuction with cellulite removal

A laser liposuction with cellulite removal procedure can help you get rid of excess fat, contour your body, and improve skin quality. Choosing the right plastic surgeon is necessary for optimal results. Here are some tips to help: • Qualifications and experience: Make sure you surgeon is qualified and experienced in performing both liposuction and cellulite removal using the latest laser-enabled technology. A surgeon who can perform liposuction surgery utilizing Smartlipo Triplex would be ideal. Likewise, the physician must also be trained in Cellulaze treatment – the revolutionary FDA-approved procedure for cellulite reduction. Getting references from persons who have been treated by this surgeon will help. • Meet the surgeon: Set up an initial consultation. This will help you get to know your surgeon. Good communication and support is important. Ask your surgeon about the procedures and cost. Make sure you get satisfactory answers to your questions. Ask if you may have a second consultation if you have more queries. Make sure that your surgeon explains about the time you need to recover fully. • Ask to see before and after photos: This is important as it will give you an idea about your surgeon’s skill. Of course, you cannot expect cookie cutter results. Ask to see average results. • Speak with other patients: Ask your surgeon if you can speak with other patients who have had laser cellulite treatment with liposuction. People who have had a good experience will be happy to talk about it. • Anesthesia: Local anesthesia minimizes patient risks. Ask your surgeon if your liposuction and cellulite laser treatment are performed under local anesthesia. This will also reduce downtime. Enquire about the anesthetist and surgery support staff. • Surgical facility: Both these procedures can be performed in a hospital, free standing ambulatory facility or doctor’s office. Make sure that the plastic surgery center is AAAASF-accredited. This will ensure that it conforms to safety standards. Ask about provisions for post-surgical care and whether you can stay at the surgical center if you need to • Staff: Your first call to the doctor’s office will help you understand if the staff is inviting and friendly. You may need to short-list and consult a few plastic surgeons before you find the right one. As a patient, do not seem uncooperative – your surgeon will be sizing you up too. You should have realistic expectations about the results – laser liposuction with cellulite removal works best for women who are healthy and close to their normal weight.
