Benefits of Waterjet-Assisted Liposuction

  • Faster recovery time
  • Enhanced precision in fat removal

How It Works

Waterjet-assisted liposuction employs a unique technology that uses a fine, fan-shaped water spray to separate fat cells from surrounding tissue. This technique minimizes trauma to blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue, resulting in less bruising and swelling. Suction gently removes the dislodged fat cells, providing a more comfortable experience and smoother results.
