Fat Transfer Frequently Ask Questions
What is fat transfer?
Fat transfer is a procedure in which fat is harvested through a small incision from either the neck or the abdomen and then injected into the desired area, such as facial wrinkles.
Who is the best candidate for fat transfer?
The best candidate for a fat transfer procedure is a physically healthy man or woman who has realistic expectations and is interested in improving the appearance of facial skin. It can be particularly beneficial for those seeking a natural alternative to collagen.
Are there any limitations to what fat transfer procedures can achieve?
Fat transfer is often not able to treat severe surface wrinkles, which are better treated with chemical peels, dermabrasion or laser treatments. In addition, a brow lift or facelift can typically better treat deep folds in the face or brow caused by loose skin or overactive muscles. The results achieved with fat transfer are not permanent.
Where is the fat transfer procedure performed?
Most fat transfer procedures can be performed in a surgeon's office, though they may take place in a hospital if combined with other procedures.
Is anesthesia used for fat transfer?
The donor and recipient site are typically treated with a local anesthetic, though some patients may also opt for sedation.
How long does the fat transfer procedure take?
Fat transfer procedures can typically be performed in under an hour.
Is fat transfer a painful procedure?
Fat transfer has minimal discomfort.
Will it be possible for me to drive myself home after the fat transfer procedure?
Fat transfer procedure typically involves little or no downtime, though patients receiving sedation should not drive themselves home after the procedure.
What is the recovery like after fat transfer?
Fat transfer procedures typically involve minimal swelling and little or no bruising. There is very little downtime, if any, and patients can typically resume their normal activities right away.
Will I need to take off from work after a fat transfer procedure?
Patients can typically return to work and other normal activities shortly after the procedure.
Is fat transfer covered by insurance?
Procedure performed solely for cosmetic purposed are typically not covered by insurance. However, some degree of coverage may be available for fat transfer procedures used to treat scars resulting from accident or injury.
Is it possible to get financing for a fat transfer procedure?
Financing is available for many plastic surgery procedures and your plastic surgeon should be able to provide you with additional information.

Lipofilling
Lipofilling otherwise known as fat transfer, can either be done on its own or in combination with other surgical procedures such as face and neck lift. It is possible to perform the procedure under local anesthetic but is usually performed under general anesthetic. Small incisions, less than 1 cm, are made in either the abdomen or inner thigh from where the fat will be harvested. This is done using a low pressure liposuction technique. The fat that has been harvested from this area is re-injected into the required areas of the face again using tiny 2-4 mm incisions which are covered with a Steri-strip sticking plaster.
Duration of the operation:
The operation for lipofilling alone usually takes between 45 minutes and 1 hour.
Post operative care:
You will expect swelling and bruises. These are all normal and should be taken cared of. You will be instructed to take all of your medications on time, keep your treatment are immobile and allow proper healing. This includes no high impact exercise or activities for approximately 2-3 weeks, depending upon the extent of the surgery. Small dressings are placed on these wounds and occasionally an absorbable suture is used to close them

Recovery period:
The area is usually swollen after the treatment and sometimes bruised, a cold pack can be soothing. The swelling and bluish colour gradually clears up a few days after the treatment. With a reasonable skin concealing cream product, you can disguise any skin discoloration, allowing you to resume your activities more quickly.

Possible risk and complications:
The risks for fat grafting are asymmetry, infection, fatty cysts, hematoma, fat embolism, seroma, permanent discoloration from the bruises and others.
Anesthesia used:
Lipofilling takes place under local anaesthesia. Both the donor and recipient zones are treated with an anaesthetic that also prevents bleeding.

Preparation before Surgery
- Assessment of the medical history (any allergies, serious medical condition and all medications taken both prescribed and non-prescribed), physical examination, and laboratory tests will be performed during consultation.
- Blood and urine samples will be collected for routine preoperative laboratory tests.
- Smoking must be avoided for about 3-4 weeks prior to surgery, as nicotine interferes with circulation and will greatly affect healing process.
- You will likely to be asked to stop drinking alcohol, a week before the surgery and throughout your recovery period.
- Avoid taking any medications such as hormones, anticoagulants, anabolic steroids and supplements at least 4-6 weeks to prevent complicating medical factors prior to surgery. Avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements as they can increase bleeding.

How long is the healing process?
While the recovery process is usually minimized with VASER Lipo compared to traditional liposuction surgeries, you can expect to go through a period of healing post-treatment. This healing process can be affected by the total amount of fat removed and the number of body areas treated.

How VASER Lipo Works?
VASER Lipo uses a minimally invasive technique calledLipoSelection® to selectively break apart and gently remove unwanted fat.
To begin the procedure, the targeted area is injected with a special saline solution known as "tumescent fluid." Tumescent fluid numbs the target area and shrinks local blood vessels. It also temporarily expands the volume of the targeted area, making fat cells easier to remove.
Small-diameter probes are then inserted into the body through small incisions. By resonating at a high ultrasonic frequency, the probes literally shake loose fat cells — while leaving blood vessels, nerves and connective tissues unharmed.
The loose fat cells mix with the tumescent fluid, which is then removed from the body using gentle suction.
After the surgery, patients are prescribed a recovery regimen to promote maximum skin retraction and smooth results. Your physician may recommend massage therapy to enhance results and speed recovery.
Visualizing VASER Lipo
Infiltration
The fatty layer is injected with tumescent fluid.
Ultrasonic energy delivery
The high frequency vibration of VASER® ultrasonic probes causes the fat cells to shake apart and combine into the tumescent fluid.
Aspiration
Loose fat is easily removed via specially designed suction tubes.
Skin retraction
During the healing process, skin will retract to give smooth, natural-looking results.
