Water-jet assisted liposuction is a totally new liposuction technique and the first of its kind in the United States. Using the Body-Jet device, this revolutionary alternative to traditional liposuction is gentle, fast and effective. Using the flow of water to dislodge fat, this technique is unlike any other, providing many advantages:

• Gentle procedure
• Minimally invasive
• Rapid recovery
• Excellent results

Using a gentle, pulsating spray of fluid, water-jet assisted liposuction dislodges fat without the brute force used in traditional liposuction procedures. Fat is loosened from connective tissues by the gentle fluid spray and then simultaneously removed. This gentle method results in minimal bruising and tissue trauma, while still achieving excellent results.

HOW DOES BODY JET WORK?

With Body-Jet Liposuction, the doctor simultaneously introduces gentle pulses of fluid into the body while dislodging and removing fat using a small tube (cannula) inserted through the skin. In essence the Body-Jet is designed to aid the physician in loosening fat using a unique pulsating fluid spray which separates it from other tissue effectively and with minimal trauma.

Body-Jet also removes fluids from the patient as quickly as the fluids are introduced. Because less fluid is in the patient at any given time, minimal discomfort and a faster and potentially more accurate procedure is possible.

HOW LONG DOES THE PROCEDURE TAKE?

A Body-Jet procedure actually takes less time than a traditional liposuction procedure since there is not a lengthy infiltration phase. Depending on your case and how many body areas you are having done, it could be anywhere from one hour to three hours or more. Please discuss with your physician for exact details based on your individual situation.

WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED WITH BODY-JET?

Almost any area of the body with excessive fat deposits may be treated. The most frequently treated areas are the abdomen, hips, thighs, knees, and back

IS THE PROCEDURE PERMANENT?

Fat cells that are removed by Body-Jet do not grow back. Typically, any post procedure weight gain is distributed elsewhere on the body.
