Dr. Koehler and Kirstin discuss the art of taking fat out with liposuction—and putting it right back in with fat transfer. From sculpting waists to plumping booties (and even rejuvenating hands), they break down the techniques, the aftercare, and what really happens to all that fat.
Gone are the days of manually chiseling away with liposuction. Dr. Koehler now uses power-assisted technology for a smoother, more precise process. And once that fat is out, it’s not always just tossed; it can be put to work, whether that’s adding volume to the right places or restoring a youthful touch.
