Body Jet Liposuction is a cosmetic surgical procedure used to wash away fat cells in the body with the help of a fluid spray. This method is safe and offers permanent results. The procedure completely eliminates cellulite from the treated area and is done on those who have less than 25% fat to be removed in order to achieve ideal weight.
In this procedure, the flow of water is used to dislodge fat. Fat that is loosened from the connective tissues is then removed with the help of a hollow tube called a ‘cannula’. The fluid introduced into the body is removed quickly to ensure minimal discomfort and trauma for patients. The Body Jet Liposuction technique offers various advantages including minimal invasion, gentle procedure, fast recovery and good results.
Body Jet Liposuction sculpts patients to improve contours and offers an improved appearance. Body Jet Liposuction is used in combination with different treatments, as this procedure is effective in tightening skin. When excess fat is removed from under the skin, the elastic property of the skin allows it to retract to its predetermined position. This is evidently seen when Body Jet Liposuction is used in the stomach, arms and breasts.
Enhancing Body Jet Liposuction with Other Procedures
Body Jet Liposuction may sometimes result in skin droop, especially in aging skin. Surgical lifts such as abdominoplasty, mastopexy, rhytidectomy, buttock lift, thigh lift and lower body lift are then used in combination to remove excess skin.
If the skin lacks enough elasticity to spring back to shape, Body Jet Liposuction may leave wrinkles. Thermage is a non-invasive procedure used in combination to help firm the skin and improve overall final result.
Tummy Tuck/Abdominoplasty
Aging, pregnancy and weight gain result in protruding lower abdomen. Over a period of time, the stomach wall is pushed by the internal organs. Combined with loose skin, this results in the tummy bulge. Tummy tuck or abdominoplasty tightens the abdominal muscles and helps reduce fat and excess skin from on the stomach.
This procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, as an outpatient procedure, and patients can get back to their normal lifestyle within four weeks. Abdominoplasty is combined with Body Jet Liposuction to contour and refine the body and ensures proportionate overall appearance.
Arm Lift/Brachioplasty
Excess loose skin caused by weight loss, aging or genetics is removed and a proportionate body contour including a more defined upper arm shape is possible with brachioplasty. Cosmetologists combine arm lift with Body Jet Liposuction to remove excess fat from the upper arm area. This treatment is done under local anaesthesia as an outpatient procedure and patients can return to light activity in a couple of weeks.
Thigh Lift
Excess skin from the upper leg resulting from genetics, weight loss or aging is removed with the help of a thigh lift procedure. This treatment provides a toned appearance to the thighs. This procedure is combined with Body Jet Liposuction to remove the excess fat from the thighs. Thigh lift is an outpatient procedure done under local anaesthesia and patients can return to work in two week’s time.
