Airsculpt after Coolsculpting failure?

Question

I've had coolsculpting in the past on a my lower abs and flanks, I've only gotten larger and am wondering if airsculpt is a better option? Also what should I really expect post -op, recovery wise, with airsculpt? Thanks in advance.

Cool sculpting has a notorious overall low patient satisfaction and is viewed by most as being fairly ineffective and rarely giving impressive results.It is also imprecise, unpredictable and inherently poor at sculpting or contouring sense fat removal follows the contour of the suction device used. when cool sculpting is truly effective it leaves what looks like cell phone imprints. because it fails to deliver on a consistent basis the cell phone in print issue is pretty rare.
You’ll find that most plastic surgeons do not recommend cool sculpting and those who are driving that industry generally do not offer surgical options which are far superior.
Air sculpt is a branded name owned by Elite Body Sculpture. it is a form of laser Power assisted Liposuction done with patients using local anesthesia with mild sedation.
Air sculpting is a form of liposuction and therefore can be highly effective and deliver impressive results in the hands of a talented provider if the patient is a good candidate for Liposuction.
Without including pictures we can’t make an assessment so it’s difficult to say if this will be a good procedure for you or not. I recommend all patients have in person consultations discussing their concerns needs and desires directly with local board-certified plastic surgeons including doctors working for Elite Body Sculpture if you choose air sculpt.
Best,

If you have had coolsculpting done, you likely possess fibrotic fat that is difficult to remove using conventional liposuction. Airsculpt is just a brand name and does not denote any special technology. Instead, you should consider VASER liposuction which is the definitive GOLD STANDARD in liposuction techniques. Please consider a virtual consultation from a high definition liposuction expert to help you get an accurate recommendation of what will work best for you.
