| There are several fat removal processes and body contouring treatments at Snowberry Lane Clinic. So how do you know which one is right for you? Here’s a helpful guide so you can see the options. Smart LipoSmartLipo allows for precision removal of fat cells without damaging surrounding healthy cells. It is ideal for smaller areas of the body, but can also be used for the stomach, buttocks and thighs. SmartLipo uses a fine canula (1mm. diam.) to deliver a safe, powerful laser to heat fat cells, causing them to break down. The fat deposits are simply absorbed by the liver and disposed of naturally. At the same time, the laser seals-off minor blood vessels and stimulates collagen production to give a smooth, sculptured finish. Smart Lipo is ideal for treating many smaller areas of the body such as the jowl, knees, ankles, chin and arms, but can also be used for the buttocks and stomach, and for patients with a body mass index of 25 or less. Vaser Lipo SystemIf you have larger body areas that need treating, Vaser Lipo could be the best option. The Vaser Lipo System uses ultrasound energy to break up the fatty tissue. The liquefied fat is then removed from the body through a gentle suction process. This method is ideal for larger areas of the body, and for those with a body mass index of 25 - 30. Whilst the procedure is very similar to the SmartLipo treatment, the incisions made are usually larger and compressions post-treatment are recommended to remain in place for approximately 4 - 6 weeks to achieve optimum results. BodyTiteIf you’ve recently had a baby or lost a significant amount of weight, then BodyTite may be for you. BodyTite targets those stubborn areas of fat that refuse to move, even after much dieting and exercise. It effectively removes this surplus fat whilst leaving the skin feeling tighter, and less saggy post treatment. The BodyTite™ procedure uses Radio Frequency Assisted Lipo Tightening (RFAL) technology to gently melt and remove excess fat. A tiny incision is made in an inconspicuous part of the body from which the pre-melted fat is removed. Results can be seen immediately and are usually complete between 6 and 12 weeks after treatment.
