Smartlipo is a laser procedure that uses wavelengths to offer optimal fat disruption and melting for effective body contouring.  It uses a laser to melt away fat cells while simultaneously heating and tightening the skin in the treated area. A small fiber optic cannula is inserted into the top layers of the skin through a small incision.  The laser causes the membranes of the fat cells to rupture.  The melted fat is aspirated through the same incision. The treatment offers a smooth result.

Smartlipo is a smart choice.  It is performed under local anesthesia, is less invasive and has less risk than traditional liposuction procedures.  It may also result in less bruising, swelling and bleeding.  Recovery time is reduced due to fewer traumas to the skin.

Because Smartlipo is less invasive and causes less trauma, it is extremely effective for contouring delicate areas such as face, chin, neck and arm.  While it also offers skin tightening which is effective for larger areas of fat removal.

As with any liposuction procedure, an ideal candidate is one that doesn’t plan on additional pregnancy, is at a healthy weight and is in good general health.  Liposuction is not for weight loss.

Don’t be fooled by anyone offering liposuction procedures.  Smartlipo is a technique that requires extensive training and should be performed by board certified plastic surgeons.

What is Botox?  Botox is a purified form of botulinum A toxin. Botox has a wonderful way of stopping wrinkles where they start.  Botox blocks the nerves that contract muscles so that the wrinkles do not even form, and it softens existing wrinkles to prevent them from deepening.

Can it really benefit me?  Yes!  Botox will keep your skin looking much younger with a more relaxed, smooth appearance.

Dr. Robert Heck M.D. is an aesthetic specialist and has given thousands of Botox injections.  He and his staff are prepared with the knowledge and skill to tailor a program for you.  A program specific to your needs in an environment that is suitable for such a procedure.  Your consultation with Dr. Heck will leave you feeling confident in your step toward the self-confidence you have been looking for.
