Water-assisted liposuction works very well
Water-assisted liposuction, called Body-Jet, is a technique I've used for close to 3 years. It involves pulsing the local anesthesia solution under a slight pressure into the fat space, rather than the usual way of placing the fluid. Body-Jet is more like a power wash compared with a soaker hose method of placing fluid. It allows the anesthetic solution to placed more rapidly, and most importantly, in my experience more comfortably. The speed of pulses is adjustable.

Water Liposuction - More Hype than Hope
The short answer is yes - it really works. This past year I tried the Body-Jet- water assisted liposuction on several patients. We followed these patients for 6 months. Every patient had an excellent result and the technique wasn't that difficult to learn. However - in the cases that I performed - there wasn't any real advantage.

It the painter not the paint brush.
Hello,
Yes it does work, but so do the other type of liposuction technologies such as power assisted, ultrasound, laser, etc. The two most important parts about any liposuction procedure is #1 the plastic surgeon and #2 removing the fat as opposed to breaking it up or dissolving it and waiting for the body to absorb it.

Does water liposuction work?
Yes it does but as Dr Khoobehi stated, It is the experience of the surgeon not the techniques or machinery used! I use BODY JET as an additional item in my liposuction arsenal of choices. In my hands I see less swelling, less ecchymosis or black & blue, faster healing, larger volumes more safely removed. Best is to see in person a Body Jet Doc.

Waterjet liposuction is another option for the liposuction
Waterjet is another form of liposuction and does work. It involves using high pressure water to mobilize the fat deposits. The more important issue is the surgeon and not the machine or the method alone.
