Introducing SlimLipo™ — The Kinder, Gentler Liposuction

As mentioned in a previous post, I was smitten by the new laser-assisted liposuction technologies that I saw at the recent American Society of Plastic Surgeon annual meeting in Chicago. So I ordered the SlimLipo system from Palomar, and have been offering it here in my Duxbury plastic surgery practice since December. The results have been great and as expected — the new laser system actually melts fat through tiny incisions, so there is less trauma involved in "suctioning" out fat. This means a faster treatment, less bruising, faster recovery.

It's important to understand this is still a surgical treatment, so a surgical consultation is required. If you've been considering liposuction, SlimLipo may be the way to go. To schedule an appointment, call the office at 781-934-2200.
