Why Smartlipo™
If you have considered liposuction to get rid of unwanted pockets of fat and body sculpting, but are afraid of the risks and the cost, then Smartlipo™ LaserBodySculpting is a solution for you. Smartlipo™ is different than traditional lipo in that it uses a laser to melt the fat deposits, and removes them from the body through small, 3-4mm, incisions. No sutures are required. The small laser cauterizes blood vessels as it melts the fat, so there is less bleeding, bruising and swelling than with traditional liposuction. This minimally invasive procedure allows for faster recovery with fewer complications.
Smartlipo™ only requires a local anesthetic, whereas traditional liposuction requires general anesthesia. Because the patient is not under general anesthesia, Smartlipo™ has fewer risks and a much shorter recovery time than traditional liposuction.
You can now lose the fat deposits on your abdomen, thighs, arms and neck without the risk and cost of traditional liposuction with Smartlipo™, the smarter alternative to traditional liposuction.

Frequently Asked Questions About Smartlipo™
How does Smartlipo™ work?
This laser-assisted lipolysis procedure is performed by inserting a one-millimeter cannula (or tube) into the skin. A laser fiber inside the cannula causes the fat cells to rupture and become liquid. Simultaneously, tissue around the area coagulates, resulting in overall tighter skin tissue. Dr. Broder of Beleza Medspa acquired the newer SmartLipo MPX, which is the strongest laser in the Austin area and can more efficiently melt fat and tighten skin!
What areas can be treated using Smartlipo™?
Smartlipo™ LaserBodySculpting is ideal for the neck, jawline, breasts, "bra fat," abdomen, "love handles," arms, "saddle bags," knees, inner and outer thighs. Multiple areas can be treated during one session, depending on the amount of fat being removed.
Am I a candidate for Smartlipo™?
Smartlipo™ LaserBodySculpting is meant for those areas that do not respond to diet or exercise. The perfect candidate is in good health. This is not a weight-loss procedure but more of a body contouring process that will result in the loss of inches and clothing sizes, so the candidate should basically be within normal body weight. We sculpt the body by removing the fat from the areas where it matters, giving you noticeable results!
How does Smartlipo™ LaserBodySculpting compare to conventional lipo?
Conventional liposuction is meant to remove larger amounts of fat, usually done in the operating room under general anesthesia. Time is of the essence, due to the risk of anesthesia, so larger instruments are used to speed up the fat removal process. As a result, there are more irregularities and the fat is removed without tightening the skin. Smartlipo™ is performed in-office under safer, local anesthesia. We use smaller instruments to finely sculpt and contour the body. Finally, the Smartlipo™ laser tightens the skin after the fat is removed, for more satisfactory results.
Is there a recovery period following Smartlipo™?
Smartlipo™ LaserBodySculpting is a minimally invasive procedure which usually requires only local anesthesia and several 3-4mm incisions. There are no sutures required. There is some soreness and swelling afterwards, but most patients return to normal daily activities in 3-4 days. Within the first week, most patients can return to their normal exercise routine.
How many Smartlipo™ treatments are required?
Typically only one treatment is required. Smartlipo™ permanently removes the fat during the session. Noticeable results will be seen within 1 to 2 days, with continued improvement over 3 to 6 months.
What is tumescent liposuction?
The tumescent procedure consists of the injection of a large volume of saline solution into the fatty area under the skin. This solution contains a dilute anesthetic to reduce any discomfort and a dilute epinephrine to shrink capillaries and prevent bleeding. Once the fluid is under the skin, a tube is inserted and the fat is removed using a vacuum. This allows for larger areas of fat to be removed with less risk of bleeding, bruising or irregularities. At Beleza Medspa, Dr. Broder combines the use of tumescent liposuction with the powerful innovation of Smartlipo™ to produce superior results with less risk and a quicker recovery.
