What is a Fat Transfer?
Say yes to wearing shorts and skirts again! You deserve the best of the best. That’s why you should try BeautiFill™, the first laser-based system that combines liposuction, skin tightening, and fat grafting (cosmetic fat transfer) procedures in one convenient appointment. It’s a game changer!
In the past, fat transfer treatments were time-consuming, risky, and unreliable. When fat cells were removed before the development of BeautiFill™, they were permanently damaged. The body’s recovery from this process was so traumatic that it produced unpredictable outcomes. Despite some positive results, many patients were dissatisfied. Patients usually lose most of the fat transferred within the first year because doctors cannot predict fat reabsorption rates. As a result of the unpredictable nature of the procedure, many patients end up being overfilled, underfilled, or left with fat in areas where they don’t want it. That’s really frustrating!
The BeautiFill™ system is transforming the industry. The fat removed from the body with this new technology is more uniform, undamaged, and has a higher survival rate. As a result, overfilling and unpredictable results are no longer a problem. Additionally, the BeautiFill™ system uses a laser to break down fat while suctioning it out gently to rapidly break it down. Once the fat cells have been removed, this system uses thermal energy to tighten the skin, so there is no sagging. The results are remarkable!
How does fat transfer with the BeautiFill™ work?
BeautiFill™ is a groundbreaking laser technology. During the procedure, gentle heat is applied to the tissue surrounding fat cells in the donor area. As a result of this heating, more fat can be removed. It removes oil, blood, or fibrous tissue from the extracted fat. Even though it might sound unpleasant, it’s an important technical step that helps fat tissue survive. As a result of this process, you get small uniform fat cells that have a higher viability rate. With the BeautiFill™ that we use today, we can retrieve over 95% viable and quality fat for injections.
During your initial consultation for fat transfer with BeautiFill™ in Alpharetta, GA, Dr. Lie will carefully evaluate your areas of concern and discuss whether fat transfer may be suitable for you.

Patients love BeautiFill™ because of its dramatic results. As well as enhancing your facial and body contours, Dr. Lie can also remove excess fat and contour your body with thermal tightening in the donor area. With BeautiFill™, you can enjoy a smoother and easier recovery than traditional liposuction. You can use this combination of procedures to enhance or completely rejuvenate your face or body if you lose volume or have too much skin.
As technology advances, fat transfers are becoming more popular. Procedures like breast augmentation, Brazilian butt lifts, hand rejuvenation, and facial enhancement previously required synthetic implants, dermal fillers, or risky fat grafting. You can now enhance all those areas with your own fat, which the body will never reject. BeautiFill™ is revolutionizing these procedures, making them safer and more effective for everyone.

How much does Fat Transfer cost?
A fat transfer procedure’s cost depends on factors such as the technique, the treatment area, and the degree of contouring. Visiting LifeHope Healing Med Spa to schedule a consultation is the best way to determine how much a fat transfer will cost.
What does recovery look like?
Recovering from fat transfer depends on where the fat came from and how much was taken. For example, the face doesn’t require downtime, but you may need a full day to recover from larger fat transfers.
Are the results permanent?
The benefits of fat transfer can last a lifetime as long as you maintain a healthy, stable weight following the procedure. When you lose or gain weight after a fat transfer, the fat cells can shrink or swell, affecting liposuction and grafting. It’s also important to remember that fat transfer does not stop the natural aging process. Your looks may change over time because of aging, genetics, hormone fluctuations, etc. A repeat procedure can help maintain results.
Which areas can I remove fat?
Fat transfer with BeautiFill™ is often used to remove stubborn fat from areas, including the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, flanks, chest (male), knees, and chin/neck area.
How many treatments will I need?
The main advantage of BeautiFill™ is that it requires a single treatment per treated area. This means immediate and long-lasting results. The BeautiFill™ fat transfer and lipo is a one-and-done procedure for fat loss and fat grafting.
