Facelifts carried out using hydrodissection (Aqualift®) are a particularly gentle version of SMAS lifting in which waterjet assisted preparation (hydrodissection) is used.
The desire to develop efficient but gentle techniques with lasting results to rejuvenate the human appearance is the motivation behind the research and trialling of a number of new methods that all share a common goal: achieving better results compared to conventional and more laborious procedures with considerably less downtime, risk and discomfort. The Aqualift® hydrodissection method presented here is not a completely new technique but is rather an expanded concept to facilitate one of the most important steps during the facelift, the dissection. The water-jet assisted preparation method ensures high tissue selectivity with efficient and gentle dissection associated with minimal secondary damage.
