Can fat be harvested with bodytite liposuction for a bbl
Answer: Bodytite and BBL Bodytite is a radio-frequency treatment which serves to tighten skin. This accomplished by subdermal heating of the collagen fibers which can cause tightening as well as stimulate fibroblast activity for collagen deposition. This can be combined with liposuction (but does not necessarily need to be). The fat removal component is no different than traditional liposuction. For those patients with excess fat in the absence of skin laxity Bodytite does not necessarily hold an advantage over more traditional liposuction. However, in patients with laxity or in whom there is a concern for worsening laxity post liposuction, a radio-frequency tightening will help.With regards to your specific question, Bodytite can be performed in conjunction with liposuction for BBL fat harvest. However, Bodytite heating renders the fat not usable for transfer. Liposuction can be performed with Bodytite to follow. Thus preserving the fat and allowing for tightening. As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS).

Answer: Bodytite liposuction and fat transfer? A combination of Liposuction, Body Tite and fat transfer is possible. Liposuction will remove the offending fat while Body Tite energy will tighten the excess skin. Fat transfer to the breast, butt or face is possible. It all depends on the areas you are wanting to target.

Answer: Bodytite I would not treat the area with Bodytite if I wanted to use the fat from that area for fat grafting. Fat grafting can be very effective but I would not want the results potentially compromised with the Bodytite treatment.
