How Smartlipo Works

While the most important factors that lead to a positive laser liposuction outcome are the experience, skill, and knowledge of the surgeon, the technology makes a difference as well. The Smartlipo laser uses wavelengths that selectively target fat and tighten the skin. The thin Smartlipo cannula contains a laser fiber that melts targeted fat cells.

Dr. Ching performs laser liposuction as an outpatient procedure in his on-site surgical center. It is both safe and fast; most treatments take only 1 to 2 hours. Dr. Ching first prepares the targeted areas in the same way as for tumescent liposuction, by injecting a large volume of tumescent solution. This infusion controls pain and bleeding; it also makes the fat tissue firm so it is more easily removed.

Dr. Ching is a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon
When choosing a liposuction surgeon in Honolulu, it’s important to choose one that is board certified. Dr. Ching is not just board certified, he’s certified specifically for plastic surgery. This certification means Dr. Ching is continually undergoing training in new techniques and refining his surgical skills.

For you, that means you are receiving care from a knowledgeable plastic surgeon with tested abilities. Some surgeons in Hawaii offering laser liposuction are not board certified in plastic surgery, denying you an important guarantee of quality and knowledge.
