The Procedure
Cool Lipo: The laser liquefies fat for easy, gentle removal.
Traditional Lipo: A back and forth motion is required to plow through the fat. This can be dangerous as it can tear nearby blood vessels, nerves or connective tissue and may cause skin to become too thin.
Recovery
Cool Lipo: Many people return to work the very next day, but it depends on the area treated. The Cool Liposuction benefit here is a significantly shorter recovery time.
Traditional Lipo: This can range from a few days to a few months.
Side Effects
Cool Lipo: There may be slight bruising and discomfort for a few days.
Traditional Lipo: Possible excessive bleeding, scarring and damage can occur. Pain and discomfort are significantly greater than with Cool Liposuction.
Separate Skin Tightening Procedure
Cool Lipo: The Cool Liposuction laser tightens your skin as the fat is removed. It’s a two-in-one procedure.
Traditional Lipo: Traditional liposuction requires a separate procedure for skin tightening.
Other Advantages of Cool Lipo
- Treats areas that are difficult for conventional liposuction.
- Performed under local anesthesia
- Short, safe outpatient procedure
- Minimal post-procedure downtime
