Fat Transfers

Fat Transfers - What is it?
A fat transfer procedure is also known as fat grafting or fat injection transfers fat from body areas where excess fat exists, such as the inner thighs to areas where the volume may be lacking; for example the buttocks, breasts, face or hands.
 
From The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery’s Smart Beauty Guide: This safe, long-lasting, well-tolerated procedure produces natural-looking results. Every year, thousands of people undergo successful fat grafting and are pleased with the results.
How do Fat Transfers Work?
Harvesting: The patient and their surgeon will decide on an area of the body for fat removal. After a local anesthetic is applied a small incision is made in this area and by using a thin tube called a cannula connected to a syringe is inserted and then fat is extracted (liposuction).
 
Purification and transfer: Purification may require a centrifuge to spin the fat or impurities may be removed by way of a filtration process. The extracted fat is then processed for transfer by injection with small syringes.
 
Placement: The surgeon will insert a needle or cannula in the designated area for transfer. Generally, the injection needle is passed in and out multiple times and a line of fatty tissue is deposited in natural tissue creating a grid of natural fat.
 
What Areas of the Body Can Fat Transfers be Applied?
  • Hand rejuvenation
  • Facial areas such as laugh lines, crow’s feet and smile lines
  • Breast augmentation for modest increase in breast size
  • Breast implants plus fat grafting
  • Buttocks such as Brazilian Butt Lift
Compared to Synthetic Dermal Fillers:
When you use synthetic dermal fillers to reduce wrinkles and lines, there’s a chance you will experience an allergic reaction to the filler. Since your body’s fat is acting as the dermal filler in a fat transfer, there’s no chance of a similar complication. What’s more, dermal fillers break down in the body so they must be repeated every few months.

What You Need to Know

During the consultation, Dr. Marvel will examine your facial features, ask you questions about your medical history and evaluate your general physical condition. The result of this examination will determine procedures involved. For example, a Rhinoplasty involves the reshaping of the nose, while a facelift requires making an incision that follows the hairline.

Dr Noah performed my procedure. I am very impressed with the result. Dr Noah exceeded my expectations. I've never been this confident about myself before. I was nervous and anxious, but Dr Noah and Sandra always answered all my questions and were available when I had concerns. I am beyond happy and grateful to Dr Noah and the entire staff.

Can't say enough about Dr. Marvel and his amazing staff. He has done several procedures on me, and they are perfection. I have not had to take any pain pills, I didn't even bruise with my procedures. He is also extremely honest, if he doesn't think you need something done he will tell you that, which is unheard of these days. I highly recommend him

I’m two week post-op from a BBL and I love my results so far! My waistline is exactly how I envisioned. My bum looks awesome as well, can’t wait for final results. Dr Noah did my procedure, he’s a true artist and listened to my concerns. The nurses were wonderful and Maria does lymphatic massages, she’s been a huge help and gives great BBL advice. Thank you Dr Noah! Hazel Webster/Nashville

I couldn’t be happier with the results that I received from my surgery at Marvel Cosmetics. For years I’ve exercised and ate healthier in an effort to maintain my weight. I’ve always been on the heavier side. Fortunately, I was able to drop about 60lbs, but there was an excess of loose skin and muscle loss in my stomach that I couldn’t tone or tighten. I received a few consultations, but I didn’t feel that everything was right until after having a consultation with Dr. Alisha Jefferson. She’s personable, patient, and made me feel extremely comfortable. She performed a tummy tuck w/muscle repair and lipo on my back. Im currently 9 weeks post op…my recovery went well, the incision is perfect, and my overall results met my expectations.. Additionally, her team was great from beginning to end.
