| An article contrasting the newer Smart Lipo procedure with older liposuction techniques such as SAL (Suction assisted liposuction), PAL (Power assisted liposuction) and UAL (Ultrasonic assisted liposuction), and Tumescent (or wet Liposuction).
The general conclusion is that some doctors resist newer techniques like Smart Lipo due to the high cost of the equipment (lasers), which can cost tens of thousands of dollars. So the new Smart Lipo procedure is being performed by a relatively small number of progressive doctors who are willing to risk the financial investment in an effort to provide better result for their patients. |
