The Benefits of the Fat Transfer Procedure

What is the fat transfer procedure?

Fat transfer is when the fat is removed from certain parts of the body through liposuction and is transferred to another part of the body. Fat can be transferred to areas like the arm, face, buttocks, and breasts. The two most popular areas for fat transfer are the breasts and buttocks. A patient who wants to create a shape of fullness or add volume to an area on their body may want to consider the fat transfer procedure, which uses your own fat and not synthetic substances like silicone.

Like all surgeries, the fat transfer procedure comes with common risks such as bleeding or infection. Because of those possibilities, it’s crucial to only rely on the very best cosmetic surgeons for fat grafting.

Why the fat transfer procedure might be ideal for you:

If you’re noticing signs of aging and are troubled by persistent fat that doesn’t seem to go away no matter what you do, then you might be an excellent candidate for a fat transfer procedure, also known as fat grafting. If unsightly fat is lingering on your thighs, back, hips and lower stomach, fat transfer surgery could be highly effective for removing it, when diet and exercise have failed. Please note that patients who are significantly overweight or obese can not undergo the fat transfer procedure for health reasons. The surgery is beneficial not only because it can minimize undesirable fat in certain areas of the body but can also utilize that unwanted fat to create an improved appearance in other parts of the body.

Those who consider fat transfer, usually, want it inserted in their buttocks to give the appearance of a rounder, fuller behind. Another fat transfer that is very popular is fat transfer to the breasts. Fat transfer to the breasts can make the breast area fuller and larger. The appearance of breasts then becomes rounder and firmer instead of sagging. Many who consider fat transfer consider it because they refuse to have silicone implants and want a more natural look.

If you’re looking to achieve a face that looks more radiant and youthful, then fat transfer procedures could go a long way for you. The aging process triggers the loss of fat in the face which can make hollows, wrinkles and fine lines more prominent on the complexion. The fat transfer procedure, depending on your needs, can help reverse the situation and restore the youthful, vibrant and full visage you enjoyed before. Fat transfers help people achieve fullness and volume that feels and appears natural simultaneously.

If you’re dissatisfied the amount of fat in a specific area of your body and would want to use that fat elsewhere to create volume or fullness, the fat transfer procedure might be able to change your life in a positive way.
