Fat Transfer

What is Fat Transfer?

A surgical fat transfer, also known as a fat graft or lipomodelling, is a cosmetic procedure that involves removing fat from one part of the body and injecting it into another to enhance volume, improve contours, or correct defects.

How Does Fat Transfer Work?

Harvesting

Fat is removed from donor areas (e.g., abdomen, thighs, flanks) using liposuction, which involves inserting a cannula and using a vacuum to extract the fat.

Purification & Preparation

The extracted fat is processed to remove impurities and excess fluids, often through centrifugation, ensuring only healthy fat cells are used for transfer.

Injection

The purified fat is carefully injected into the target area using small syringes. The surgeon places the fat in layers to ensure even distribution and achieve natural-looking results.

Benefits Of Fat Transfer

Body Contouring

Liposuction removes fat from areas like the abdomen, thighs, or flanks, sculpting the body.

Rejuvenation

Fat transfer can smooth out wrinkles and fine lines, providing a more youthful appearance.

Enhanced Contours

The procedure can add volume to areas like the cheeks, buttocks, or breasts, enhancing their shape and definition.

Skin Enhancement

Fat grafts can improve skin texture and elasticity, contributing to a healthier look.

Permanent Results

A portion of the transferred fat is considered permanent, integrating with existing tissues.

Two-in-One Solution

The procedure addresses two issues simultaneously—removing unwanted fat from one area and adding volume to another.

Common Application Of Eat Transfer

Face

Enhancement:
Adds volume to cheeks, fills in hollow areas under the eyes, and smooths out wrinkles and fine lines.

Rejuvenation:
Improves overall facial contours for a more youthful appearance.

Hands

Rejuvenation:

Restores volume to aging hands, reducing the prominence of veins and tendons and improving skin texture.

Lips

Augmentation:
Increases lip volume for fuller, more defined lips.

Correction:
Smooths out fine lines and improves lip symmetry.

Post-Operative Care for Fat Transfer Surgery

What to Expect:

Swelling: Expect swelling to peak on the second or third day after surgery, gradually subsiding afterward.

General Care:

Avoid Direct Pressure and Heat: Refrain from applying direct pressure or exposing the treated areas to heat.
Head Elevation: Keep your head elevated during sleep to help minimize swelling.
No Smoking: Avoid smoking for at least one month to reduce the risk of complications and support the survival of the fat graft.
Rest and Relaxation: Ensure plenty of rest and sleep to promote a faster recovery.
Stay Calm: Contact the clinic with any concerns or questions.

Medication:

Antibiotics: Complete the full course of oral antibiotics as prescribed.
Pain Management: Use painkillers as prescribed when needed.

Wound Care:

Cleaning: Clean the wound with a cotton tip soaked in sterile water or saline.
Antibiotic Ointment: Apply antibiotic ointment to the wound; dressings are not required.

Physical Activity:

Limit Exercise: Avoid heavy physical activity and exercise for at least one month.

Follow-up:

Suture Removal: Return to the clinic one week after surgery for suture removal and a follow-up review.

Emergency Situations:

Contact the Clinic/Doctor: Immediately reach out if you experience heavy bleeding, a rapid increase in swelling, or severe pain.

How Much Does Fat Transfer Cost?

The cost of a fat transfer procedure typically ranges from RM 5,000 to RM 10,000, depending on several factors, including:

Area Treated: The cost may be higher for larger or more complex areas that require more intricate work.
Amount of Fat Transferred: The price can increase with more extensive procedures, as a greater amount of fat needs to be harvested and transferred.
