“Smart Liposuction arms, no visible scars! I am 44 years old and have had “batwings” for arms since I can remember. They got worse with pregnancy and I was done and wanted them fixed! I went to three Plastic Surgeons for advice. Dr. Laurie Casas was the only one who gave me options and all under local anesthesia. We decided to pretreat my arms by applying a moisturizer twice a day and starting an arm and shoulder exercise plan to help hydrate my skin and improve the contour of my arms and shoulder. After 3 months she said I was ready to have Smart lipo of my arms and axilla or Brachioplasty, both under local anesthesia. I chose Smart Lipo. The day was amazing. No pain and a feeling of being cared for by her amazing staff. It’s been 6 months and my arms look amazing. I have a tiny bit of excess skin close to my armpit but I don’t want a visible scar so I am done. Dr. Casas and her staff are wonderful. Once you meet them you will know you’ve gone to the best place.” As the industry’s leading laser-assisted lipolysis system designed to disrupt fat cells and tighten tissue, Smartlipo is an ideal adjunct to liposuction for treating localized fat deposits on the face and body. In addition, Smartlipo is a minimally invasive technique that safely coagulates blood vessels resulting in less bleeding and bruising than liposuction alone. Smartlipo Advantages

• Treats areas of undesired fat
• Promotes tissue coagulation resulting in tissue tightening

We start with a complimentary consultation with Dr. Laurie A. Casas, a board certified cosmetic plastic surgeon, who has been certified by Cynosure in SmartLipo and who has 20 plus years of experience in cosmetic plastic surgery. We explain in great detail what you can expect to experience during your SmartLipo procedure and Dr. Laurie A. Casas will answer every question you may have. On the day of your SmartLipo procedure, Dr. Casas first numbs the skin and then, after making tiny incisions no larger than the tip of a pencil, painlessly infuses anesthetic under the skin. There is no need for IV lines and no general anesthesia. Once the layer of fat is completely numb, a fiber optic thread the size of a strand of thin pasta delivers the laser energy that melts fat and tightens skin. Because you are fully wide awake, you may chat with Dr. Casas while we sculpt a new you. The melted fat is removed with suction and we help you into a compression garment that you wear for the next two weeks. Here at Casas Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, we also recommend using Alastin TransFORM Body Treatment twice daily after your SmartLipo procedure. This new technology helps accelerate the body’s natural removal process of post procedure fat debris along with tightening and improving the quality of the skin. You use Alastin TransFORM Body Treatment by applying the product in the area of treatment in the morning and evening. Dr. Casas and her team use Alastin Products with Tripeptides and Hexapeptides to improve and hasten your recovery following procedures.  Her research shows that using topical treatment following procedures, there is less postprocedural swelling, pain and discomfort. There is also an overall improved skin quality visually and to the touch.   Here at Casas Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, we strive to optimize patient experience and satisfaction following procedures.
