For countless men and women, stubborn neck fat is one of the most frustrating side effects of weight loss, aging, or simply genetics. Even relatively young and fit patients often struggle with excess fat in the neck that makes them look heavier than they actually are. Board-certified physician Dr. Christy Watson (aka Dr. Christy) and the acclaimed team at Body Bar MD are proud to offer the breakthrough Alma BeautiFill® laser liposuction system in Carmel and Terre Haute, IN to help patients get rid of their double chin and, in some cases, enhance another feature in a single step! Read on to learn more about laser lipo for neck fat here, and find out whether you may qualify for this groundbreaking procedure.

How can I get rid of my double chin?

Like it or not, people of virtually any age and size can develop a double chin. In some cases, genetics and/or hormones are to blame, while other men and women begin to notice excess neck fat as a result of weight loss or the aging process. Unfortunately, losing weight is not always effective for reducing neck fat. For patients frustrated by hanging neck fat, laser liposuction offers the incredible opportunity to restore a slimmer, sexier, more youthful neckline with long-lasting results.

What is laser lipo?

Much like traditional liposuction, laser lipo is designed to remove fat cells from the body using a minimally invasive approach. However, laser liposuction offers a number of compelling benefits compared to regular liposuction, including:

• Can be performed using local anesthesia
• Quicker recovery period
• Less postoperative swelling
• More efficient fat removal
• No damage to surrounding tissues
• Encourages skin tightening
• Smaller incisions
• Fat can be used to enhance another feature in a single step
• Higher fat survival rate for fat transfer

How does laser lipo for neck fat work?

During laser liposuction in Terre Haute or Carmel, IN, patients will be given a gentle form of local anesthesia to ensure comfort. To begin, Dr. Christy will make a tiny incision near the treatment site, through which a handheld cannula will be inserted. The BeautiFill system will then emit precise heat energy to loosen the fat cells, making them easier to remove and preventing damage to the surrounding tissues and the fat cells themselves. In addition, the laser energy promotes skin tightening for an even more dramatic transformation. At the conclusion of the case, the incision is closed with tiny sutures. Patients can resume the majority of their routines within just a few days, though strenuous physical activity and exercise should be restricted until cleared by Dr. Christy.

Where does the fat go after laser lipo?

In addition to giving patients a firmer and more slender neckline, the BeautiFill system also allows men and women to augment another feature through its all-in-one laser lipo plus fat transfer technology. After the unwanted fat has been removed, BeautiFill’s advanced technology separates and purifies it, leaving only high-quality, uniform fat cells. This fat can then be injected into other areas of the face and body, including:

• Lines and wrinkles
• Lips
• Cheeks
• Under the eyes
• Breasts
• Buttocks

Unlike traditional liposuction with fat grafting, the BeautiFill system accomplishes laser lipo, fat purification, and fat transfer in a swift, single step with gorgeous, reliable, long-lasting results.
