Most Fat Transfer procedures take between 1-3 hours to complete, depending on the areas being treated and the amount of fat being transferred. The procedure typically involves gentle liposuction from a donor area, processing of the fat, and careful injection into the treatment areas.
Typically, 50-70% of transferred fat cells establish a new blood supply and remain permanently. We account for this expected resorption by slightly overcorrecting during the initial procedure. Some patients may benefit from a second procedure for optimal results.
Most patients report moderate discomfort, primarily in the donor area where fat is harvested. We provide appropriate pain management solutions to ensure your comfort during recovery. Many describe the sensation as similar to bruising rather than sharp pain.
Initial volume enhancement is visible immediately, but some of this is due to swelling. As swelling subsides and the transferred fat establishes its blood supply, your true results emerge over 2-3 months. The fat that remains after this period typically provides lasting enhancement.
Absolutely! Many patients combine Fat Transfer with procedures like facelifts, eyelid surgery, or laser treatments for more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. We’ll discuss all available options during your personalized consultation.
The fat cells that successfully establish a new blood supply in the treatment area can provide permanent volume enhancement. While you’ll continue to experience natural aging, the improvement from Fat Transfer can last many years or even decades, unlike temporary fillers that dissolve within months.
