Dr. Pratha Alturi at Cincinnati Smartlipo relieves bulk and manages weight with non-invasive treatments. Cincinnati Smartlipo is the first center in the tri-state area to carry the Vaser Shape system, a non-invasive, penetration-free procedure that may temporarily reduce cellulite's appearance. Two wands emit ultrasound waves that infiltrate fatty layers 1–5 centimeters beneath the surface, loosening factions of fat and quieting cellulite-sympathetic rebellions. The soothing sensation of the treatment may be similar to a hot-stone massage or baby space shuttle landing gently on your back, as the ultrasound wands also give the lymphatic system a rubdown, corralling feral toxins and stray fat cells so they exit via the bloodstream’s series of chutes and ladders. Whether deflating spare tires or degripping love handles, each treatment lasts 30 to 45 minutes, has minimal recovery downtime, and usually shows noticeable results in one or two visits.
