Does SmartLipo treatment hurt?
The level of discomfort experienced by our clients ranges from moderate to virtually painless. Your botonics doctor will anaesthetise the surface of your skin at the entry area, then inject an anaesthetic into the fat layer that will be treated. Those clients that have experienced resistance to local anaesthetics (e.g. when having dental work) may experience a similar resistance to the local anaesthetic we use for SmartLipo treatment. The laser acts on the fat cells without affecting the nerve endings, so discomfort is significantly reduced relative to Liposuction. Some clients describe the sensation as tugging, scraping or a sensation of pressure.
