Laser Lipo and Fat Transfer FAQ
What's the difference between BeautiFill and other energy-assisted liposuction procedures?
The key difference between BeautiFill and other fat transfer treatments is the adipose gathering approach. The targeted system can extract a portion of viable fat tissue and refine it to be injected into the chosen regions. In comparison with different procedures, BeautiFill can produce a good percentage of live fat cells and is known for its dependable, stunning outcomes.
Am I going to feel pain during my procedure?
Since BeautiFill is performed under a topical anesthetic, the majority of patients experience very little discomfort during the treatment session. You may feel mild discomfort, bruising, and swelling after you go home since the BeautiFill treatment is minimally invasive in nature.
Will I need to take time off work or my regular activities?
It's up to you when to resume your normal activities. You may have some post-treatment bruising or swelling, which might remain for up to a week, but this can vary, depending on the size and number of treated areas. However, these symptoms will not prevent you from resuming your day-to-day activities the next day should you decide to do so.
