WHAT IS BODY-JET LIPOSUCTION?
Referred to often by plastic surgeons and patients as ‘water lipo’ or ‘H2O lipo,’ this latest technology offers a new gentle technique for body contouring and body sculpting for both women and men.  Body-Jet liposuction offers patients a totally different experience from standard tumescent liposuction or even laser-assisted liposuction.

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, arms and beneath the chin. Because Body-Jet Lipo is a quick procedure with minimal downtime, patients often choose to treat multiple problem areas at one time.   Patients can also space out treatments if desired.

WHEN CAN I RETURN TO NORMAL ACTIVITY?
Recovery is usually easy and quick with Body-Jet Liposuction. In fact, many report being almost pain-free after just a few days and are thrilled with how quickly they are able to return to normal activity, including exercise.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
Body-Jet Liposuction is comparable to the cost of standard liposuction. Please talk to your doctor about the exact pricing based on your personal situation.  Body-Jet is truly the affordable liposuction alternative.

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. 

IS BODY-JET RIGHT FOR ME?
In general, the ideal candidate for Body-Jet Liposuction is in good health and not more than 25 pounds overweight. Those with localized, exercise-resistant fat deposits will obtain the best results. If you are looking for a way to shed fat without a lot of downtime, discuss with your doctor to determine if Body-Jet might be right for you.  

ADDITIONAL BENEFITS:  YOUR OWN FAT AS A NATURAL FILLER!
With the advanced technology of the Body-Jet ®, the procedure preserves healthy fat cells making natural fat transfer a viable option by using unwanted fat as a natural filler. After removing fat with the Body-Jet® Water-Assisted technology, Dr. Staahl can inject it into any problem area where you desire more volume. Because the fat comes from your own body it is natural and reduces chances for complications—making natural fat transfer the safest and most natural way to restore volume to your cheeks, lips, eyes, hands, breasts or buttocks.
