Benefits of Fat Grafting
Fat grafting utilizes fat from within the patient’s own body to transform the body, making it a more natural form of body contouring. This reduces some risks of complications compared to treatment methods that involve the implantation or injection of synthetic materials.
Unlike dermal fillers, which are typically absorbed and eliminated by the body over the course of several months, fat grafting results can last for years. Fat grafting is also less invasive than other methods of treatment. Perhaps the most obvious benefit to fat grafting is that it can be used to improve two areas of the body simultaneously as fat is removed from an area in which it is less desirable in order to enhance another area of the body in which more volume is wanted. Another really fascinating benefit of fat grafting is that fat cells appear to have a kind of memory. If you tend to gain weight in a certain part of the body (such as the hips or thighs), and then the fat is transferred to your breasts, those same fat cells will continue to be the first to grow if you gain weight! They’ll just be in your breasts instead of your hips.
