BeautiFill is a highly advanced body contouring treatment system that involves laser-assisted liposuction and fat transfer. With BeautiFill fat removal and transfer, patients can reduce unwanted fat in one area of their body and use it to enhance other features, like the breasts, lips, or buttocks. Unlike traditional liposuction surgery, minimally invasive BeautiFill can be performed using local anesthesia only and significantly cuts down on post-treatment swelling and recovery times.
Virtually any area of stubborn fat or lost volume on the face and body can be treated with BeautiFill. Common areas for laser liposuction include:
Most often, the fat removed during laser lipo is then transferred to one of the following areas:
Patients undergoing laser lipo with fat transfer should keep in mind that the transferred fat cells will take some time to establish a blood supply before they settle in their new location. Additionally, a small percentage of fat cells will not survive the transfer, though Dr. Chakerian takes this into account when choosing how much fat to transfer. On average, patients can expect their final look to take shape about 4 – 6 weeks after laser lipo with fat transfer, at which time the majority of the swelling should have resolved and the tissues and fat cells should have settled. During your BeautiFill recovery, it is critical to avoid putting direct pressure on the newly transferred fat cells, as this can prevent them from establishing a long-term blood supply and ultimately compromise your cosmetic outcome.
Compared with traditional liposuction and fat transfer procedures, BeautiFill laser lipo provides more predictable results. This is primarily due to advanced technology, which purifies and isolates only the most viable, live, uniform fat cells and prepares them for transfer in a single step. With proper execution and appropriate aftercare – including maintaining a stable weight over time – patients can enjoy the remarkable results of BeautiFill for years to come.
Getting a slimmer, trimmer, or sexier look doesn’t have to mean extensive cosmetic surgery and a lengthy recovery period. With BeautiFill laser lipo plus fat transfer, patients can enhance more than one feature in just a few hours with limited downtime.
