2- What is the concept behind Fat Transfer Lahore?

Fat cells are very delicate and fragile cells present in subcutaneous plane (beneath the skin) throughout the body and only loosely connected to their blood supply. The fat cells are harvested very gently with special cannulas, then prepared and injected into the treatment area in crisscrossed tunneling method. The fat cells survive and maintain their volume when the new blood supply grows into them.

3- How much fat is usually available for Fat Grafting in Lahore?

This depends on your body status. If you have a lot of fat, it is easy and mostly taken from the thighs and/or abdomen. But if you do not have much fat, it may need harvesting from multiple areas of body.

4- Are all areas on the body equally good sources for fat?

No. Soft and non-fibrotic fat is best, from the central abdomen. Areas previously treated for liposuction with scarring are not good harvesting site of fat.

5- How do you harvest the Fat?

Through very small incisions in skin, fat is harvested with fine cannulas so that only small fat parcels will be harvested. It is harvested under very light suction so that the fat cells will not be damaged or destroyed.

6- How is the Fat Prepared?

The harvested fat is carefully and gently washed with normal saline and healthy fat cells are then separated from the dead cells and the fluid. They are filled into syringes and are ready for injection.

7- How is the Fat Injected?

Fat is injected and transferred using the micro-grafting technique with the help of very small cannulas. With the cannulas very thin tunnels will be created that is then filled with the prepared fat.

The fat tunnels are at different tissue levels, and crisscross through the area to be augmented. Together, these will allow the best opportunity to have the new blood supply grow in.

8- Is there a preferred age for patients receiving Fat Transfers?

Fat Transfer / Fat Grafting gives beautiful results in all ages.

Fat Grafting Lahore can be performed in younger age groups to correct deep acne scars or facial asymmetry. Its other indications are — lip augmentation or cheek augmentation, buttock and breast augmentation.

9- When will I be able to return to my normal routine after Fat Grafting Treatment?
