Body Jet Liposuction
La Body Jet Liposuction, It is a method increasingly used by the best plastic surgeons in the world.
The technique, also known as WAL (Water Assisted Liposuction), consists of injecting a jet of pressurized water to extract excess fat from localized areas.
We are talking, especially, of the fat known as "liposistrophies", which are those that commonly accumulate on the sides of the abdomen. Those that don't go away no matter how much you exercise and eat a balanced diet...does it ring a bell?
Our Plastic Surgeon, Dr. de los Ríos, performs this technique by means of some cannulas that at the same time that they inject the water, they have the possibility of absorb fat which is going to be withdrawn.
One of the many advantages of this novel method, is that when using a fluid with saline solution, fat cells are not destroyed as with laser liposuction devices. In this way, the absorbed fat is not damaged and can be reused for grafting (Lipofilling technique) in other areas of the body such as buttock augmentations, breasts, cheekbones...
