Body jet liposuction, also known as Water Jet Liposuction (WAL) is different from conventional liposuction procedures because of the way the fat is suctioned out of the body.  Instead of injecting high volumes of saline solution into the tissues to reach the fatty areas, Dr. Carreon can use a water-spray device that simultaneously injects water into the body while taking the fat out. 

Dr. Carreon controls the amount of water pressure used throughout the procedure, and the fatty deposits are broken down quickly and efficiently within seconds. This process causes much less swelling and discomfort, and the procedure can be performed under local anesthetic. The results are significant, and few patients experience extensive bruising or discomfort immediately after the procedure.

Since the incision sites, for the water assisted lipo (liposculpture), are relatively small, patients can heal and recover easily within a few weeks and sport a bathing suit without worrying too much about scars. Some patients report a significant reduction in cellulite in addition to body fat removal; this can be especially beneficial for individuals who are of average weight and want to get rid of unsightly bulges while losing the excess pounds.
