SmartLipo in NJ at Nusbaum Medical Centers removes stubborn fat and tightens skin in one minimally invasive procedure — with less downtime than traditional liposuction.
At Nusbaum Medical Centers in Cedar Knolls, New Jersey, SmartLipo is performed by Dr. Michael Nusbaum, a board-certified surgeon, FACS FASMBS, who has led medical and aesthetic care in New Jersey for more than 25 years. This laser-assisted technique adds skin tightening to fat removal, a meaningful advantage for the right patient.
How SmartLipo Works
SmartLipo uses a thin laser fiber inserted through tiny incisions. The laser energy liquefies fat for gentle removal while simultaneously heating the skin to stimulate collagen and tightening. Because it's less traumatic than traditional liposuction, many patients enjoy a quicker, more comfortable recovery — often under local anesthesia.
Benefits of SmartLipo
- Removes stubborn, localized fat
- Tightens skin as it sculpts
- Minimally invasive with small incisions
- Often performed under local anesthesia
- Quicker recovery than traditional lipo
SmartLipo vs. Liposuction vs. CoolSculpting
SmartLipo adds skin tightening to surgical fat removal. Traditional liposuction handles larger volumes, while CoolSculpting is non-surgical for smaller pockets. Dr. Nusbaum offers all three and recommends the best fit.
