Reducing the appearance of cellulite is one of the toughest goals to achieve in skin care. Millions of creams, treatments and lotions have been tried over the years, only to fail to make a dent in those unsightly dimples on our skin. Fortunately researchers have been hard at work on the tricky problem of cellulite. A number of new treatments are now available which target cellulite. Some use lasers to heat up the underlying skin, others use a form of mechanical message, while still other treatments aim to improve cellulite with radiofrequency energy. A number of new devices utilize a combination of all the above in an effort to improve cellulite as much as possible. Nothing yet is the perfect cure for cellulite, but these new technologies are often able to improve the appearance of it.
It’s important to understand the limitations of treating cellulite. If you go out looking for a ‘quick fix’, you are setting yourself for disappointment. If you are hoping to reduce the appearance of cellulite on your body, call today to schedule a consultation so a physician may sit down with you and discuss your options for treatment.

I first learned about SmartLipo when I called Dr. Lowen's office and his staff informed me about Smartlipo. I found that I was very interested in the procedure because I had this area that would just not seem to lose any weight. At first I was a little apprehensive about it since it is very new but then I noticed that it was mentioned in a few newspaper articles.
When I went to my appointment with Dr. Lowen it was explained in detail on what Smartlipo is...."little to no pain", very little down time PLUS it would tighten the area. That is what made me decide.
I had SmartLipo on my abdomen area on a Thursday morning and was fine that evening (you do have to take it very easy for the three days mentioned) but I could walk around with no pain. My abdomen feeling was sore (it felt like after doing stomach crunches for the first time). Also, I had no need to take any pain medication at all.
I had very good results immediately it has only been two weeks and I know it will just keep getting better. I have to mention that Dr. Lowen made me feel very comfortable and his staff are very friendly and warm. I am so happy that I don't have to "suck it in" ha-ha.
I am positive that if you chose to do Smartlipo you will not be disappointed!
Cheers,
P.S.

After treatment of my upper arms with Smartlipo MPX I went home and worked on my laptop. The next day I worked a full day. I never needed pain medication, not even an aspirin, and I'm one who feels every bit of pain. The procedure was straight-forward and easy, and I am very happy with the results.
I see huge improvement in my arms. They feel better in clothes, and it's an incredibly nice feeling. I have a photo of myself taken summer of 2007 where my left arm is reaching upwards. I loved the photo but hated how my upper arm looked so I paid someone $35 to carefully photoshop it so the ugly hanging fat was gone. I remember joking how paying a pro to doctor up a photo was way cheaper than paying a doctor for plastic surgery. But now I have everything because in pictures and in real life my arms look good and feel great. I can't wait for the warm weather to really show them off.
Today I did a boot-camp style workout in a gym class. It was a wonderful feeling in every way.
An added benefit: you'll love Dr. Lowen's staff. They are the best!
