AIRSCULPT® VS. TRADITIONAL LIPOSUCTION

AirSculpt® is a minimally invasive body sculpting procedure performed in a relaxed setting. This patented treatment permanently removes fat and tightens skin while sculpting targeted areas of the body. Results are achieved with minimal pain by plucking away fat, cell by cell. A majority of unwanted fat cells can be removed with a single minimally invasive procedure; all this is done without leaving an obvious scar. AirSculpt® enables your surgeon to sculpt your body’s contours precisely to your desired look with no lumps or ridges for a naturally attractive outcome.

Traditional liposuction is an abrasive surgical procedure that removes excess body fat and leaves a tell-tale scar. It uses a hollow suction tube inserted through an incision to remove fat from under the skin with a scraping motion that is quite violent and imprecise. The patient is put under general anesthesia before the surgery and stitches are required to close the incision. Recovery is generally painful with excessive bruising, which lasts for days or even weeks, and extended downtime. Results can leave bumps, shelves, ripples, and other irregularities. Patients sometimes requiring additional procedures to revise disappointing results.
