Women across the globe are no longer the type who just wait and watch as their face and body lose volume and their abdomen gains kilos with age. In simple terms, they are not like the women of the past who were happy to age gracefully. They want to look young and have an ideal figure as long as it’s possible. Men too continue to be increasingly interested in looking younger than they really are. This article looks at how liposuction with fat transfer, a relatively new cosmetic surgery technique, can improve your appearance.

Fat Harvesting through Liposuction Surgery

Before going straight into how fat transfer can enhance your natural beauty, here’s how the fat for the procedure would be harvested. It is harvested by way of Smartlipo Triplex™ liposuction. The fat is taken from the areas of the body where there is more fat than is ideal such as the abdomen, thighs, flanks and buttocks. The fat extracted would then be purified before select cells are re-injected into areas that lack or have lost volume.

How the Procedure Enhances Your Appearance

When your own body fat is injected into specific areas, it would actually assume the same consistency of the tissue into which it is introduced. Resulting metabolic transformations that happen over a period of months would cause enhancements in appearance, skin quality and contours. Though the results from the transfer cannot really be called permanent, they would last for years, which is a much longer period of time than that associated with dermal fillers.

Fat transplantation to the face helps to add volume to certain areas such as the lips and cheeks, thereby practically reversing the aging process. It also improves the appearance of the wrinkles. Transplantation to the breasts and buttocks adds projection and volume to them, improving these contours and making them look more feminine.

Find the Right Plastic Surgeon

To ensure that you really do get the aesthetic benefits associated with liposuction and fat transfer, you must find yourself the right plastic surgeon to perform the procedure for you. First, look for accredited (such as AAAASF accreditation) plastic surgery centers near to where you live. You can get some names of such centers from your family physician or even from Google or other search engines. Find out if there are any surgeons who specialize in this combination procedure in those centers. If there are any, proceed to do the following:

  • Carry out a background check on the physician
  • Try to contact patients who have undergone the very same procedure under the particular surgeon you are considering for your requirement
  • Schedule initial consultations with specialists that you have shortlisted
  • At the initial consultation, analyze aspects such as his bedside manner, sincere interest in what’s good for you and not just in making money, openness about the procedure and its cost and possible risks

Now you not only know how liposuction with fat transfer can improve your appearance but also how to locate the right physician to perform the surgeries for you.
