Does Airsculpt remedy issues after procedure?

Question

If after 6 months post-op, a patient feels unsatisfied with the results of their airsculpt procedure (based on what they had originally talked about with their doctor going into the procedure and then what actually happened), does Airsculpt remedy issues or mistakes? What recourse do patients have?

Anna Chacon, MD, FAAD · Answer

AirSculpt is a procedure used to remove and sculpt fat from various parts of the body, resulting in a more contoured and defined appearance. However, like any medical procedure, it may not completely eliminate all issues or concerns. The effectiveness of AirSculpt in remedying issues after the procedure may depend on individual factors such as the patient's overall health, the specific area treated, and the skill of the surgeon. It's also important to note that AirSculpt is not a solution for weight loss or obesity, and it does not replace a healthy diet and regular exercise. Complications, while rare, can occur, such as infection, bleeding, and changes in skin sensation. It's recommended that patients discuss their expectations and potential risks with their surgeon before undergoing the procedure.

To understand what responsibility the company has from a legal perspective, you should read the paperwork you signed.
Typically issues after surgery are dealt with on an individual basis.
The doctors will often do what they can, but patients should recognize that the doctor does not own the company and has some limitations on what they can or cannot do to help patients after surgery.
If the result or problem can be improved with a revision procedure, then that’s usually the course of action.
Talk to your provider.
Best,
