Here, we will explore the best areas to transfer fat to and from.
What Is Fat Transfer and Why Choose It?
Fat transfer, also known as fat grafting, involves using liposuction to remove fat from one part of your body and then purifying and injecting it into another area needing volume or contour. Common recipient areas include the face, the breasts, and the buttocks.
A fat transfer is a minimally invasive option with a lower risk of allergic reactions, as it uses your own body’s tissue. Additionally, it helps contour the donor area by removing unwanted fat.
Common Areas To Transfer Fat From
The most common donor areas for fat transfer include the following:
- Abdomen: Often the top choice due to its larger fat deposits.
- Thighs: Both inner and outer thighs offer significant fat tissue.
- Flanks: Also known as the “love handles,” this area provides another excellent source for fat removal.
Ideal Areas To Transfer Fat To
The fat harvested can be injected into areas such as:
- Breasts: Fat transfer to the breasts can add volume and improve shape naturally. This is ideal for modest size increases without implants and offers a natural feel.
- Face: Fat transfer reduces wrinkles and restores youthful contours, enhancing areas like the cheeks, under the eyes, and around the mouth for natural results.
- Buttocks: The Brazilian Butt Lift uses fat transfer to create a fuller, more rounded buttock shape, providing natural-looking results that enhance your overall silhouette.
