What Makes Laser Lipo Different

Laser-assisted liposuction uses dual-action technology: melting fat cells while stimulating collagen remodeling. This means smoother contours and firmer skin — something traditional lipo can’t deliver.

In our St. Louis practice, we perform BeautiFill laser lipo under local anesthesia, offering quick recovery and visible contour changes within weeks.

Collagen Activation and Skin Tightening

The laser energy gently heats the dermal layer, causing collagen fibers to contract and new collagen to form over time. As a result:

• Skin appears smoother and firmer
• Irregularities or dimples fade
• Post-procedure sagging is minimized

That’s why patients often say it feels like they had “lipo plus a lift.”

Ideal Candidates

Laser lipo is perfect for individuals who:

• Maintain a stable weight
• Have small to moderate fat deposits
• Want skin tightening along with fat removal
• Prefer a minimally invasive option

Those seeking large-volume fat reduction or major weight change should start with metabolic evaluation and Functional Medicine Weight Programs.

The Procedure Experience

Most procedures take 60–90 minutes per area. After applying local numbing, a laser fiber liquefies fat, which is gently suctioned out.

Patients walk out of the office the same day — no hospital stay, no stitches, and minimal downtime.

The Beauty of Fat Transfer

One of BeautiFill’s biggest advantages is the ability to reuse the extracted fat.
Natural fat transfer enhances:

• Facial volume loss
• Breast or buttock contouring
• Hand rejuvenation

The Bottom Line

Laser lipo is where science meets artistry. It tightens, sculpts, and refines — all with your body’s natural materials.
At Sheen Vein (Aesthetics and Functional Medicine), we believe in combining regenerative technology with holistic health to deliver both immediate and lasting results.
