The super wet technique uses a specialized solution to cut down on the length of your liposuction procedure, as well as limit any bruising or swelling that may occur. This advanced liposuction option is ideal for patients looking to achieve long-lasting fat reduction results. Super wet lipo can be utilized for large-volume fat reduction and precise fat removal procedures to target a variety of areas, including the buttocks, thighs, abdomen, breasts, neck, and more.

How Does Super Wet Liposuction Work?
The super wet liposuction technique uses a special solution to reduce discomfort during your procedure. This solution is injected into the target area and provides a firming effect so fat can be easily and safely suctioned from the body. Small incisions are made in the skin to insert thin cannulas which gently suction fat cells. These minimally invasive incisions can reduce the amount of patient recovery, as smaller incisions result in less scarring and bruising. Once fat is removed, patients will see a noticeable increase in body shape and definition over time.
How Is Super Wet Liposuction Different From Tumescent Liposuction?
Both super wet liposuction and tumescent liposuction uses a specialized solution to prepare the target area(s) before suctioning fat. However, super wet lipo uses approximately half the amount of the solution used during tumescent lipo. By utilizing a smaller amount of solution, super wet liposuction can reduce the length of your liposuction procedure. Dr. Levine will help you decide whether super wet liposuction or tumescent liposuction is ideal for your procedure goals.
Can Super Wet Liposuction Be Used Alongside Other Procedures?
Yes. Super wet liposuction can be used alongside other lipo procedures to provide optimal results, including VASER® LipoSelection, SmartLipo®, SculpSure™, power assisted liposuction, and tumescent liposuction. Additionally, super wet lipo can complement other facial rejuvenation and body contouring techniques. Dr. Levine will discuss which procedures may best enhance your super wet liposuction results.
Am I An Ideal Candidate For Super Wet Liposuction Treatment?
Super wet liposuction is designed to enhance contours for slimmer-looking definition. Patients should not consider super wet lipo to be a substitute for weight loss methods. Instead, the super wet technique can enhance weight loss results by trimming deposits of fat from troublesome areas of the body to create natural-looking curves. Those looking to reduce fat from smaller areas, including the chin, knees, and inner thighs, can also benefit from the super wet technique. Patients considering super wet liposuction should be relatively close to their ideal body weight. Dr. Levine will discuss if super wet lipo is right for you during your consultation for liposuction at our New York City office.
What Type Of Anesthesia Is Involved During My Super Wet Liposuction Procedure?
Super wet liposuction requires the use of either local, twilight, or general anesthesia, depending on the specifics of your procedure. Dr. Levine will discuss which type of anesthesia is right for you during your liposuction consultation at our New York office.
What Can I Expect After Undergoing Super Wet Liposuction In New York City?
Super wet liposuction recovery varies according to the needs and specifics of each individual patient. Mild swelling and bruising are common in the weeks following your super wet lipo treatment. These effects should subside in the subsequent weeks following your procedure. Many patients return to work within one week of undergoing super wet liposuction. Additional healing time may be required before resuming certain physical activities, such as exercise.
What Kind Of Super Wet Liposuction Results Can I Expect?
Super wet liposuction can produce long-lasting results for patients. Our lipo doctors can precisely suction fat cells to reduce unsightly bulging around the body for smooth-looking contours. Patients can achieve natural-looking results that complement the entire body with super wet lipo. Additionally, super wet liposuction results can be further enhanced and maintained through consistent dieting and exercising, as these lifestyle choices can reduce the probability of additional fat build ups occurring.
How Can I Maximize My Super Wet Liposuction Results?
In order to maximize your super wet liposuction results, it is important to follow all pre and post-operative instructions provided by Dr. Levine.
Pre-Care
Certain products and supplements should be avoided in the weeks prior to your super wet procedure, unless medically necessary. By doing so, patients minimize their risk of bruising and swelling. Blood-thinners and medications that contain ibuprofen or aspirin should be avoided. Patients should also refrain from taking multivitamins and herbal supplements.
Post-Procedure
Patients may be recommended to wear a compression garment after undergoing super wet liposuction. This garment assists your recovery in the weeks following your procedure by reducing swelling and improving skin tightening. Patients can wear their compression garment while going about their day-to-day routine. Additionally, lymphatic massage may be recommended to promote healing and enhance the appearance of skin around the treatment area. Lymphatic massage can improve your body’s immunity after liposuction, enhance your circulation, and result in smooth, glowing skin.
Certain medications, including Tylenol, Bromelain, and Arnica Montana, may be recommended to alleviate pain or discomfort post-procedure. For more details regarding our liposuction aftercare suggestions, click here.
