Body-jet - Water Jet Assisted Liposuction
Patients eager to remove those stubborn deposits of fat that seem to stick around despite diet and exercise have an ally in Body-Jet, a new water-assisted form of liposuction. Instead of scrapping or relying on suction to remove fat, body jet uses water to loosen fat and remove it permanently from the area of the body you are targeting.
WHAT IS WATER-JET ASSISTED LIPOSUCTION?
Water-jet assisted liposuction is a transformative new approach to liposuction, 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 providing many advantages:
• Gentle procedure
• Minimally invasive
• Rapid recovery
• Excellent results
HOW DOES BODY-JET WORK?
With Body-Jet, the physician simultaneously introduces gentle pulses of fluid into the body while dislodging and removing fat through a cannula. In essence, Body-Jet is designed to aid in loosening fat using a unique pulsating fluid spray that 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 fast and potentially more accurate procedure is possible.
STEPS
1. Infiltration- Slightly pressurized fan-shaped laminar jet anesthetizes tissues.
2. Irrigation and aspiration- Cannula gently loosens and removes fat simultaneously while functional tissues are spared.
3. Drying- Aspiration of fluid. Body-Jet Result : Undesired fat is gone, functional structures left intact.
HOW IS BODY-JET DIFFERENT FROM TRADITIONAL TUMESCENT LIPOSUCTION?
• Body-Jet uses saline fluids to gently dislodge fat
• Brute force is unnecessary
• No lengthy pre-infiltration phase required
• Better anatomical assessment due to efficient fluid management
• Performed under local anesthesia
• Superior cosmetic result
• Performed in less time
• Minimal bruising, swelling and recovery for patient
WHO IS BODY-JET FOR?
In general, the ideal candidate for Body-Jet Liposuction is in good health and not more than 25 pounds overweight. People who have battled with exercise-resistant fat deposits localized to certain trouble spots will experience the best results. Patients, who seek a solution that will get rid of fat without a lot of downtime, will find Body-Jet appealing.
A consultation and evaluation with one of our staff physicians will reveal if Body-Jet is the appropriate procedure for you.
