Air sculpting is a minimally invasive body sculpting procedure that removes fat and tightens skin using a patented handpiece and thin, vibrating cannula. The procedure is performed in a relaxed setting and does not require needles, scalpels, stitches, or general anesthesia. Air sculpting is a type of liposuction that removes fat cells cell by cell from an opening smaller than a pencil eraser, leaving behind a blemish that looks similar to a freckle. The procedure is considered safe in the hands of an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon.

Air sculpting is different from CoolSculpting, which is a noninvasive body contouring procedure that uses cold to kill fat cells. Air sculpting is a surgical procedure that requires a small incision, while CoolSculpting does not require any incisions. Air sculpting is generally recommended for healthy adults who want to remove pockets of stubborn fat or sculpt specific areas of their body, including the abdomen, hips, thighs, arms, buttocks, or under the chin.

In summary, air sculpting is a minimally invasive body sculpting procedure that removes fat and tightens skin using a patented handpiece and thin, vibrating cannula. It is a type of liposuction that requires a small incision and is considered safe in the hands of an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon.
