How Many Fat Transfers with Laser Lipo Treatments Will I Need?
Any number of contributing factors, including age, genetics, childbirth, and lifestyle choices, can morph our bodies and create unpleasant fat deposits that are challenging to get rid of with diet and exercise alone. At Wellness Diagnostic and Medispa, our team offers patients near Temecula, CA, Menifee, CA, Murrieta, CA, or San Diego, CA the latest laser technology to perform minimally invasive fat transfers to reshape bodies and achieve gorgeous silhouettes. Dr. Gloria Tumbaga is a medical aesthetics specialist who helps patients meet their body contouring needs, so they leave our clinic satisfied with their new body-contouring results.
What is a fat transfer with laser liposuction?
A fat transfer and laser lipo treatment, or fat grafting technique, is a two-step, minimally invasive cosmetic process. First, fat cells are removed from specific parts of the body using laser liposuction. Those fat cells are purified and then carefully transferred to other target areas to add volume that’s been lost with age or naturally occurring wear and tear. At Wellness Diagnostic and Medispa, Dr. Tumbaga utilizes laser technology to safely extract fat cells to optimize results and aid in faster recovery.
What are the benefits of using a fat transfer with laser lipo?
Fat transfers with laser liposuction provide patients with numerous cosmetic benefits, including:
-
A customized body contouring treatment plan
-
Faster recovery with long-lasting results
-
Slimming the figure while accentuating natural curves
-
Diminishing stubborn fat deposits
Unlike dermal fillers or implants, fat transfers utilize the patient’s own fat cells. This reduces the patient’s risk for adverse health reactions and creates natural-appearing outcomes.
Am I an ideal candidate for a fat transfer with laser lipo?
Both men and women can be candidates for fat transfer with laser lipo treatment if they:
-
Are committed to the cosmetic process
-
Have realistic expectations for their fat transfer results
-
Are at a healthy weight
-
Have enough fat deposits for a sufficient transfer
Fat transfers with laser lipo treatments are not designed for weight loss. Dr. Tumbage collects each patient’s personal and medical history, and reviews their cosmetic goals to determine if a fat transfer with laser lipo is a suitable and safe option.
What areas of the body can be treated?
For the laser lipo portion of the cosmetic process, fat cells are typically removed from the following areas:
-
Buttocks
-
Inner thighs
-
Hips
-
Abdomen
The extracted fat cells are purified and then injected into the area of the body where the patient wants to add volume, which can include the following:
-
Face (cheeks)
-
Hands
-
Butt (Brazilian butt lift)
-
Breasts
Each patient has the opportunity to create their own customized treatment plan combined with Dr. Tumbaga’s expert recommendations for successful results.
What does the fat transfer with laser lipo look like?
A fat transfer with laser lipo takes place within the comforts of one of our private treatment rooms at Wellness Diagnostic and Medispa. Each treatment area is sanitized and numbed with local anesthesia. Using laser technology, fat cells are extracted and put in a centrifuge. Once the fat cells are ready, they are injected into target treatment areas for added volume. Patients may return home the same day after treatment. Patients should expect some temporary and mild swelling and bruising, which subsides within a day or two. During the first few weeks, patients should avoid strenuous activities and exercise to optimize incisional healing.
How many fat transfers with laser lipo treatments will I need?
Patients can decide how many fat transfers they would like to receive based on Dr. Tumbaga’s recommendations and their personal cosmetic goals. Typically, all fat transfers can take place within one outpatient session.
How long will my results last?
Fat transfer results can potentially last for many years as long as patients adhere to Dr. Tumbaga’s recovery recommendations and a healthy lifestyle. Patients who experience drastic weight changes or become pregnant after a fat transfer risk altering their results. Some patients may choose to return to our clinic for occasional touch-ups.
