Fat transfer, also known as fat grafting, is a procedure where fat is removed from one area of the body (such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs) via liposuction, then purified and injected into another area to restore volume—commonly the face, breasts, or buttocks.

After major weight loss, some patients experience volume loss in areas like the face, breasts, or buttocks. Fat transfer can restore natural fullness and enhance body contour without implants.

Common areas include the cheeks, lips, under-eyes, breasts, hands, and buttocks (e.g., Brazilian Butt Lift). It’s a versatile option for soft, natural-looking volume enhancement.

You may be a good candidate if you have unwanted fat in one area and volume loss in another, and you’re in good health with realistic expectations.

Fat is harvested through gentle liposuction, purified, and then strategically injected into the desired areas. This is typically done under local or general anesthesia, depending on the extent of the procedure.

About 60–80% of the transferred fat typically survives long-term. We often slightly overfill the area to account for natural absorption during healing.

Recovery depends on the treatment area. You may have mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness. Most patients resume light activities within a few days and return to full activity in 2–3 weeks.

Yes, the fat that survives becomes a permanent part of your body. However, future weight fluctuations can affect the results, so maintaining a stable weight is key.

Our skilled surgeons use advanced techniques to ensure safe, precise fat transfer with natural-looking results. Whether you want subtle rejuvenation or full-body contouring, we customize every plan to your goals.
