Body Liposuction

Smart lipo and laser liposuction in Toronto and greater Area

Also serving North York – Melt Away the Fat

Dr. Sean Brian Rice proudly performs traditional liposuction, giving his patients in the greater Toronto the chance to transform their appearance dramatically. Dr. Rice also is proud to be the first Canadian plastic cosmetic surgeon authorized to offer his patients laser liposuction, a revolutionary new surgical technique that uses laser energy to blast away fat and tighten loose skin from the abdomen, hips, and other areas of the body, creating a slimmer, firmer, and more attractive figure. By using a laser instead of the suction involved in traditional liposuction, Dr. Rice can dramatically decrease swelling and bruising while shortening recovery time to a day or two.

Liposuction

Liposuction is an effective way to remove stubborn fatty deposits from traditional trouble spots on the body such as the abdomen, thighs, upper arms, and neck. Using suction through a stainless steel tube called a cannula to break up and remove fatty tissue, a surgeon can shape areas of the body into more attractive forms, rejuvenating the patient’s figure in the process. Liposuction has been widely and safely performed in North America since 1974 and remains one of the most commonly requested plastic surgery procedures.

While liposuction and other body-slimming procedures have long been associated with only female patients, more and more men are receiving the treatment to trim, sculpt, and define parts of their bodies. The abdomen, chest, upper arms and “love handles” on the hips are commonly targeted by male liposuction patients.

Patients who are generally physical fit, are within the normal weight range for their age and body type, and have healthy, elastic skin are the best candidates for liposuction. Many of our patients throughout Toronto, North York, and Barrie have enjoyed dramatic improvements in their appearance with liposuction. The procedure can be combined with a tummy tuck and other body contouring options in order to ensure a comprehensive improvement of a patient’s figure.

Smart Lipo Laser Assisted Liposuction

Dr. Rice is the first plastic cosmetic surgeon in Canada to offer laser liposuction. Dr. Rice has also lectured on the technique and benefits of laser liposuction to other surgeons. laser liposuction differs from traditional liposuction in that the fat is easily melted by the laser. The laser also helps to coagulate small blood vessels, therefore resulting in decreased bruising. One of the most significant improvements over traditional liposuction is that laser liposuction will aid in tightening the loose skin, leaving the patient with an enhanced aesthetic result. Occasionally, laser liposuction can be used in areas such as the neck and knees as a way to tighten loose skin only.

laser liposuction is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that employs the amazing power and versatility of lasers to melt away fat. By using a single laser fiber to heat and disintegrate fat cells inside the body, Smart Lipo™ produces significantly less bleeding, bruising, and trauma than traditional liposuction, resulting in far shorter recover times. Laser liposuction is best for treating localized fatty deposits in patients who are in generally good health and has the added benefit of improving skin firmness by boosting tissue coagulation, further enhancing the surgeon’s ability to reshape and sculpt the area.

Smart Lipo Laser Procedure

Smart Lipo is most often performed under local anesthesia while the patient is conscious. The surgeon inserts the handheld laser through a small incision in the skin and locates unwanted pockets of fat. The laser beam appears beneath the skin as a dim red light that is visible to the surgeon, allowing for effective location and removal of fatty deposits. The laser wand is waved like a fan back and forth beneath the skin, where it eliminates the fat cells it comes in contact with.

A typical laser liposuction procedure lasts about 45 minutes, but yours may be longer or shorter depending on the number of areas being targeted and the amount of fat being eliminated and skin tightening. Experienced plastic cosmetic surgeon Dr. Sean Brian Rice can achieve amazing results using laser liposuction at his office in Toronto.

Laser Liposuction with Slim Lipo

Dr. Rice is proud to be the first plastic surgeon in Canada to offer slim lipo. Dr. Rice and his premier liposuction surgery clinic in Toronto have been selected by manufacturers of slim lipo to be the Canadian training facility for laser assisted liposuction by slim lipo.

Slim laser lipo is the latest in laser assisted liposuction procedures. It offers both an improved tightening effect than older lasers as well as a faster recovery time and less bruising. This amazing combination has allowed many liposuction patients to return to work in record times – sometimes on the same day. Furthermore, skin tightening and smoothing effects of slim lipo are unseen with older laser assisted liposuction devices. Many patients who are left with skin irregularities as a result of traditional liposuction (lumps and bumps on the skin) are now seeking the smoothing effects of slim lipo at Dr. Rice’s Toronto Liposuction surgery centre.
