What’s the difference between liposculpture and airsculpt?

Question

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Airsculpt is Laser Liposuction which uses laser technology to destroy fat cells, liposculpture, specifically VASER Liposuction uses ultrasound technology. For best results with body shaping, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermiRF and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Airsculpt uses a laser to disupt the fat cells. From the promotions it is suggested that Airsulpt is not Liposuction. Airsculpt is in fact a type of Liposuction using a laser and suction..  
Lipostructure is a selective removeal of fat from an area to create dfinition to the underlying muscle. One of the best ways to perform Liposculpture is with Power Assited Lliposuction (PAL)  This  techniques uses a cannula with hundreds of small vibrations or oscillations to break up fat cells with minimal trauma to the surrounding tissue. 
Despite what is puported for Airsculpt it is an invasive procedure. Laser fat removal can result in burns  and for any significant fat removal Airsculpt  cannot be done without general anesthesia. Like any Liposuction procedure it  is painful post op.

Hello and thank you for your question. Fortunately, you have many options when it comes to reducing or eliminating stubborn body fat that won’t respond to diet and exercise. LipoSculpture and AirSculpt both can help you achieve better tone and contours if you are healthy and near your ideal body weight. LipoSculpture uses straight suction or ultrasound energy to compromise fat cells which are then suctioned out or your body then will eliminate over time, while AirSculpt relies on laser energy to do the same. Both methods are minimally-invasive, have little or no downtime, and give patients noticeable results. Talk to your specialist plastic surgeon about which option will work best for you during an in-person consultation. Good luck!

Hi. Today there are many liposuction tecniques being marketed mainly for "commercial purposes" like : laser, Vaser, airsculpt, etc. all of them melt and explote the adypocites cells(  fat cells ) decreasing their chance  as viable fat cells for transfer.Consumers are attracted to this well marketed methods to  expend much more money and boost new practitioners  with no real benefits. International Member of the American Society of Plastic SurgeonsMember of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery

Airsculpt is a patented and trademarked term offered exclusively by a Elite Body Sculpture.

It’s a combination of different things brought together to create an ideal overall procedure and experience for the patient.

For example the procedure does not require a general anesthesia, has a fast recovery and the clinic is known for hiring some of the most talented surgeons in the country.

Going to a specialty center allows you to have your procedure done by someone who has more experience of doing the same thing over and over.

To learn more about airsculpt  and to get an assessment I suggest making an appointment for a consultation at the Elite Body Sculpture nearest you.

Best,
