advances in plastic surgery for augmentation procedures. Fat cell
transfer or body fat transfer is a natural alternative to enhancing
parts of the body, such as the breasts and buttocks. Compared to
traditional breast augmentation techniques, a fat transfer
augmentation removes fat from the body and transfers to the designated
area(s) without the risk of complications or rejection.
As an added benefit, liposuction is used to remove the fat that will
be used in the fat transfer to augment certain areas of the body. The
fat is removed from the thighs, abdomen, buttocks or another area with
excess fat, which slims and tones that area of the body on the patient.
Once the fat cells are harvested through liposuction, they are
processed and purified before being injected into the area of the body
being augmented. The fat is placed with precision to ensure the right
aesthetics and most natural appearance while allowing the fat cells to
survive.
"The ability to enhance an area of the body while trimming another is
one of the many great benefits of a body fat transfer," said Dr.
Edward Bednar, medical director of Bednar Cosmetic Surgery of
Charlotte. "Our patient's results have been outstanding and thanks to
the use of the patient's own body fat, the risks are minimal and
therefore one less thing a patient has to worry about when deciding on
an augmentation procedure."
