What Is Fat Grafting?

Posted September 29, 2017 in Body Procedures

Fat grafting is an incredibly effective procedure that can be used to rejuvenate and enhance the beauty of your lips, face, hands, and buttocks. Fat grafting is a unique procedure because it uses fat harvested from your own body that is processed and used as an injectable filler.

The first step of the procedure is harvesting excess fat from another area of the body. Common areas for fat harvesting include the thighs, flanks, back, and abdomen. The fat is placed in a centrifuge, which separates excess fluid and damaged fat cells from the healthy intact fat cells. The processed and purified fat is then placed into syringes, where it can then be injected into the desired areas.
