SmartLipo and SmoothShapes at ViVa Skin Care

Posted by Sandy

ViVa Skin Care Center is now offering SmartLipoâ„¢ and SmoothShapes® as treatments in removing unwanted body fat and cellulite. SmartLipoâ„¢ is the first and only laser-assisted lipolysis system to offer a revolutionary and minimally invasive procedure for the removal of fat. The SmoothShapes® System uses a proprietary technology called Photomologyâ„¢, which brings a unique combination of laser and deep, penetrating light, to treat cellulite and improve the skin’s appearance.

SmoothShapes®™, as seen on The Today Show, is a new FDA cleared device designed to improve the appearance of cellulite. The SmoothShapes® treatment, when compared to conventional treatments, provides longer lasting results from dimpled and cellulitite stricken skin. Studies show that up to 98% of women have cellulite. You are not alone and SmoothShapes® may just be the treatment you have been looking for. Many doctors have turned to SmoothShapes® out of frustration and disappointment with the same old treatments that at best yielded very temporary results. To treat the affected area the SmoothShapes® System uses a proprietary technology called Photomology™.

Viva is well known as a center of excellence in clinical care and is very selective in only offering the delivery of safe and proven technologies such as SmartLipoâ„¢ and SmoothShapesâ„¢.
As the doctor maneuvers the instrument over the area to be treated this new technology combines a proven combination of laser, light, and vacuum energy to remodel the tissue that is responsible for the appearance of cellulite. This results in tighter, smoother, and more youthful looking skin. SmoothShapes® represents a significant improvement in the way cellulite is being treated and both doctors and patients are singing its praises.

If you have tried diet and exercise and have parts of your body that will not tone up no matter what you do, then Smart Lipoâ„¢ may be right for you. Smart Lipo is a revolutionary, minimally invasive treatment that safely melts your fat away and tightens your skinUsing a high-powered laser, Smartlipoâ„¢ is a new Laser Body Sculpting procedure with less down time and side effects than traditional liposuction. During the procedure a very small laser fiber, no bigger than the diameter of a pencil lead, is inserted into the skin. The laser is used to “pulverize” the fat cells. When the laser makes contact with the fat cells they burst and drain away easily and effortlessly. The laser energy also interacts with the dermis, shrinking old collagen and regenerating new collagen, and results in a more youthful appearance. Due to the small size of the laser fiber, Smartlipoâ„¢ is a minimally invasive procedure and can be performed under local anesthesia. No more hospital operating rooms and no more general anesthesia.

At Viva, SmartLipoâ„¢ is performed on an outpatient basis and you can drive yourself home. All this adds up to a quicker recovery time than conventional liposuction. Because hospital anesthesia is unnecessary, the procedure is very safe with only minimal side effects. Almost anyone with unwanted fat can be a good candidate for Smartlipoâ„¢. If you don’t have a lot of time to spend in recovery, Smartlipoâ„¢ may be what you are looking for as patients are typically back to work within 1-2 days following the procedure.

Board Certified world renowned Plastic Surgeon and hands on Medical Director Elliot Lach, MD FACS reports, “Viva is well known as a center of excellence in clinical care and is very selective in only offering the delivery of safe and proven technologies such as SmartLipoâ„¢ and SmoothShapesâ„¢.”
