Where Can BeautiFill® be Used on the Body?
Volume loss occurs when collagen — a protein found in the skin that provides structure and support — breaks down over time, leading to wrinkles, folds, and signs of aging on the face and body. Now BeautiFill at Limitless Me Wellness provides fullness in these areas to create a natural, youthful-looking appearance you can feel great about.
Many areas can be enhanced with BeautiFill, including the cheeks, lips, under-eye area, and smile lines. We also harvest natural fat to improve the breasts and buttocks.
This week, double board-certified medical physician Dr. Kia Mitchell describes how laser liposuction and fat transfer work in Jacksonville, FL. Our goal is to provide facial rejuvenation and advanced body contouring with excellent outcomes.
What causes volume loss in the body?
Volume loss occurs as a result of natural age, weight changes, sun damage, smoking, and other environmental factors. Our skin loses elasticity, collagen breaks down, and fat cells shrink in size. Though wrinkles and sagging skin are inevitable, laser liposuction can restore volume with minimal downtime.
What is BeautiFill and why is it needed?
Laser-assisted liposuction uses a laser to liquefy fat before it is removed. This technique can be more selective and minimally invasive than traditional liposuction techniques, with the potential for fewer complications and faster recovery times.
Limitless Me Wellness harvests fat from the abdomen, thighs, and hips to fill hollow depressions and creases. This method is much more effective than implants alone since fat is derived from the patient's own body, meaning that it is biocompatible and unlikely to be rejected.
What areas are treated with BeautiFill?
Dr. Mitchell may recommend a fat transfer to the following areas for great results in Jacksonville, FL:
-
Cheeks: BeautiFill restores hollow areas in the mid-face and manages issues like flat, sagging cheeks.
-
Lips: Our team can plump up thinning lips while adding natural definition around the border.
-
Eyes: A fat transfer fills dark circles under the eyes to create a more youthful look.
-
Smile lines: These deep wrinkles can be filled with natural fat for a smoother, brighter appearance.
-
Breasts: Fat grafting provides fullness and improves the symmetry of the breasts.
-
Buttocks: Enhance the size and shape of the buttocks while creating improved contours.
The good news about BeautiFill is that results are personalized based on your needs and goals. During a consultation, Dr. Mitchell assesses the above areas and decides if you are a suitable candidate for treatment. We may even enhance multiple areas for a more balanced appearance that looks and feels proportionate.
When are results possible after BeautiFill?
Results from fat transfer procedures are usually visible shortly after the procedure and will continue to improve as swelling subsides over the following weeks. Your timeline varies based on the treatment areas involved. Dr. Mitchell may provide a compression garment to reduce swelling and improve your chances of success. Exercise can be safely resumed 4 – 6 weeks following laser-assisted liposuction.
