At Kayal Dermatology & Skin Cancer Specialists in Marietta, GA, we’re proud to offer the latest in body contouring and aesthetic enhancement with the Alma BeautiFill™ system—a revolutionary laser liposuction and fat transfer treatment. Whether you’re looking to smooth stubborn fat areas or enhance facial volume, breast shape, or the buttocks, BeautiFill offers a minimally-invasive, safe, and highly effective option.

Below, we’ve answered some of the most frequently asked questions about BeautiFill to help you understand if this transformative treatment is right for you.

What is Alma BeautiFill?

BeautiFill™ is a cutting-edge laser-assisted liposuction and fat transfer system developed by Alma Lasers. It’s designed to remove unwanted fat from areas like the abdomen, flanks, thighs, or arms—and immediately purify it for safe reinjection into other areas of the body, such as:

• Face (for restoring youthful volume)
• Breasts (for subtle enhancement or symmetry)
• Buttocks (as a natural alternative to implants)

Unlike traditional liposuction, BeautiFill uses laser energy to gently liquefy fat before it’s removed, resulting in less trauma, minimal downtime, and tighter skin in the treated area.

How is BeautiFill different from traditional liposuction or fat grafting?

Traditional fat transfer procedures involve multiple steps, often requiring general anesthesia and longer recovery. BeautiFill streamlines the process by:

• Performing liposuction with precision laser energy
• Preserving a high percentage of live fat cells for successful transfer
• Allowing for immediate reinjection of purified fat

The result is a quicker, more efficient treatment with excellent contouring results and high patient satisfaction.

Is BeautiFill safe?

Yes. BeautiFill is FDA-cleared and widely recognized for its safety and effectiveness. The procedure is performed in-office under local anesthesia, significantly reducing risks associated with general anesthesia or hospital-based surgeries.

At Kayal Dermatology & Med Spa, all procedures are overseen by Dr. John D. Kayal, a board-certified dermatologist and fellow of both the American Academy of Dermatology and the American College of Mohs Surgery. This ensures the highest standards of medical safety and aesthetic precision.

How long does the procedure take?

Most BeautiFill treatments can be completed in 2 to 4 hours, depending on the areas being treated and the amount of fat removed and transferred. You’ll be able to go home the same day and resume most light activities within a day or two.

What is recovery like?

Because BeautiFill is minimally invasive, recovery is generally mild. Patients can expect:

• Mild swelling or bruising at the liposuction and injection sites
• Temporary soreness similar to a tough workout
• Compression garments may be recommended for a short period

Most patients return to work and normal routines within 48–72 hours, making it an ideal option for busy individuals in the Marietta and greater Atlanta area.

How long do the results last?

Liposuction results in the permanent removal of fat cells – fat cells do not regenerate.

Fat that successfully integrates into the new area becomes a permanent part of your body. While some fat resorption is natural, the survival rate with BeautiFill is higher than many other methods due to the gentle laser extraction technique. With a healthy lifestyle, results can last for years.

Who is a good candidate for BeautiFill?

You may be a great candidate if you:

• Have areas of unwanted fat you’d like to reduce
• Want to enhance or sculpt another area naturally using your own fat
• Prefer a non-surgical, natural-looking enhancement
• Are in good general health and have realistic expectations

BeautiFill is ideal for both women and men looking for subtle body sculpting and facial rejuvenation without implants or extensive surgery.
