What is laser liposuction with fat transfer?

Laser lipo with fat transfer is an innovative body contouring procedure that involves removing fat from one area of the patient’s body and using it to enhance another. During the procedure, which can be performed with local anesthesia right in our office, Dr. Christy utilizes the breakthrough Alma BeautiFill® technology. Of note, Dr. Christy is the first and only certified provider of BeautiFill laser lipo and fat transfer in all of Indiana. Once the targeted fat has been removed from the first site, it is almost immediately purified and prepared for transfer. Using skill and precision, Dr. Christy will carefully inject the fat into the desired location(s) for a full, youthful, stunning new look.
