For the underarm region, one entry point is made on each elbow to provide access to the front and back of each underarm, one on the front of each arm where the bicep meets the forearm, and one additional entry point for each armpit. When targeting the front bra roll, three entry points are made on each side: one on the back of the armpit crease where the arm meets torso, one several inches directly below on the side of the torso even with the breast, and one more on the waist. 

Patients are advised to take walks and other forms of light movement as soon as a day after AirSculpt but should wait at least two weeks before resuming strenuous activity.

AirSculpt always leaves a treated area’s skin tighter than before, but our primary focus is always fat removal rather than skin tightening. Patients who have vast amounts of fat removed may want to consider a skin tightening procedure like AirSculpt+ afterward. In contrast, those who had smaller amounts removed will experience sufficient skin tightening effects from AirSculpt alone. 

AirSculpt helps improve the appearance of arm muscles’ definition, specifically in the tricep region, while also permanently removing stubborn fat resistant to diet and exercise.

Yes, you will be able to use your hands after a fat transfer. Restrictions are relatively minimal, with only gauze wrap required on the hands for the first few weeks after treatment.

Because AirSculpt® is minimally invasive, recovery is much quicker than with traditional liposuction-based fat transfers. Most patients return to normal activities, including work, playing instruments, or light cardio, within 48 hours. Beyond that point, restrictions are relatively minimal for hand rejuvenation patients, with gauze wrap being the primary requirement for the first few weeks after treatment. Strenuous exercise and activities that could interfere with the gauze wrap should be avoided for at least two weeks.

Fat removed during an AirSculpt® session is permanently removed and will not come back to that body part. If you gain weight after your procedure, the fat will appear anywhere but the treated area, so your new proportions tend to be preserved even in this scenario. We, therefore, recommend a healthy diet and exercise following your AirSculpt® treatment. 

Regarding the area that was enhanced during an AirSculpt fat transfer, results will be permanent after the initial reabsorption that ensues any natural fat graft. Dramatic weight fluctuations can also affect results, although newly achieved proportions should remain relatively intact.

By grafting fat in precise quantities, an AirSculpt hand rejuvenation will help plump up hands that are either naturally skinny or have lost volume over time.
