THE BENEFITS

OF AIRSCULPT®

Minimally invasive AirSculpt® is the next generation of body contouring. Designed to optimize both comfort and precision, our patented technology enables surgeons to physically pluck your fat by the cell, like berries off a bush. AirSculpt® reveals your body’s natural contours by delicately targeting just the pockets of fat you want gone forever while completely sparing surrounding areas

Tightens Skin

GET BACK TO WHAT MATTERS

24-Hour Downtime

AirSculpt® technology contours the body so gently that patients can get sculpted and return to work the very next day! Compare that with invasive procedures that call for weeks of downtime and drains for excess fluid. Not only is recovery quicker, but results also begin to appear as soon as one leaves the operating room.

ELIMINATING UNNECESSARY RISKS

AWAKE THE ENTIRE TIME

AirSculpt® never uses general anesthesia, meaning patients remain awake throughout the entire procedure listening to music or chatting with a friend, nurse, or surgeon. Using local anesthesia drastically reduces risks while also allowing patients to be maneuvered during treatment to ensure perfectly balanced results.

MAKING BODY SCULPTURE A SPA-LIKE EXPERIENCE

No Scalpels or Stitches

Rather than cutting large incisions with a scalpel, AirSculpt® uses a biopsy punch tool just two millimeters wide to create an entryway that heals with dissolvable sutures. Entry points wind up looking like mere freckle marks, and surgeons strategically make them in folds or creases where they can be easily concealed.

PERMANENT AND INSTANT TRANSFORMATIONS

Results in One Session

Don’t settle for time-consuming procedures that require upwards of five sessions only to deliver meager outcomes at best. With AirSculpt®, there are no sessions, just permanent results with one single treatment. Patients walk out of our doors with instant results that get dramatically better with time.

CUSTOMIZED TO YOUR PREFERENCES

Natural-Looking Results

Whether it’s just fat removal or a transfer as well, our patented technology produces natural-looking outcomes that accentuate your natural curves and maintain desired proportions. Furthermore, AirSculpt® always leaves the treated area’s skin tighter than before, meaning patients can skip the invasive lift procedure!
