AirSculpt may have skin tightening effects but there is little evidence to back this up. It still leaves small scars. Since laser lipo is very similar to AirSculpt, the benefits can be considered comparable, but this still amounts to extrapolation and should not be taken as an exact reflection.
No studies have yet confirmed the safety of AirSculpt. The inventor claims that the procedure doesn’t damage the skin or cause swelling. However, all lipo lasers use heat and can burn the skin if not used with care. Safety profiles of certain FDA-approved laser lipo devices remain questionable.
The most common complications from laser lipo include deformed shape, unsatisfactory results, burns, and scarring.
This is a new technique, so it's probably hard to find a doctor who has already a good reputation and good results. I wouldn't want inexperienced doctors to hone their skills on my body.
Ethical question - are they harvesting the fat?
Elite Body Sculpture offers sculpting for the whole body and specifies that the removed fat can be transferred to improve other areas - for instance, natural breast augmentation, a Brazilian butt lift or infused into hands for a more youthful appearance. Could your fat be inserted in someone's butt?

Airsculping and coolsculping aren't the same:
Laser liposuction is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a laser to
melt away fat under the skin. It’s also called laser lipolysis.
CoolSculpting is a noninvasive cosmetic procedure that uses a cooling applicator to
freeze away fat beneath the skin.
CoolSculpting is noninvasive, while laser lipo is a minor surgical procedure.
Laser lipo carries many of the same risks and side effects as traditional liposuction, but on a smaller scale. And while laser lipo results are immediate, CoolSculpting results take several weeks (and up to two months) to be noticeable.
After the procedure, the frozen fat cells die and are processed away and absorbed by your body over a period of several weeks to two months.
