Hello all I am new here - I am scheduled to have Smartlipo with the bodyjet to remove the rest of my wonderful fat and tighten the skin.  Has anyone tried this.

Going to Versalles Center in Mexico - I saw lots of great before and afters just hoping someone has first hand experience.   I really  don't want to do traditional lipo and have more lose skin

Thank you FLGail,

I first saw this on Good Morning America - it is water assisted liposuction and and is supposed to be more accurate with less brusing and they can take out more volume.

I have researched and researched and sometimes I'm still confused.  but I am going to give it a try and whenn done put up my photos - good, bad or indifferent.  Maybe they will be useful for others.

I have the newest, most powerful SmartLipo yet...the MPX system. tried it on a few of my staff and some patients.  I would say there is virtually no significant skin tightening.  I would not  consider it for a weight loss patient except to treat small pockets of residual fat.

Hello Doctor,

It is my understanding that the body jet (water assisted liposuction) is a very gentle way to remove several liters of fat.   They use the body jet first followed by the  Smartlipo.  I know a few Doctors are also doing this in the US but its quite costly.

The Versalles Center has done over 2000 procedures are certified by Deka the manufacture of the Smartlipo  (they were the first to have the machine pior to US approval).  In addition  I saw over 60 photos, asked lots of questions, and spoke with 15 patients.  So I am going to it a try. 

Will post my before and after photos.   - wish me luck.
