FAT TRANSFER TO FACE/BUTTOCKS/BREAST

Fat grafting to the buttocks is a surgical procedure that enhances the buttocks’ size and or contour without implants. Liposuction removes excess fat from desired areas, and a part of this fat is then surgically injected into the buttocks.

 When you choose fat grafting, Dr.Kim will use undesirable fat cells from specific body areas, giving you a two-for-one treatment solution. Fat is typically suctioned from your flanks, thighs, or abdomen, and re-injected into your buttocks during the treatment, giving the backside a more youthful, rounded, and contoured look.

As for the face, it is always exposed to the elements and thus prone to premature aging. With time, we begin to see the signs of facial aging with the hallowing of the cheeks and other specific locations of the face, all of which result from loss of soft tissue volume, sagging skin, and loss of skin elasticity. By injecting your own fat tissue into specific locations, we can achieve a more youthful and balanced appearance with little downtime and lasting results. 

As for the breasts, there are a number of reasons a patient may want to have fat grafting. Typically it is to enhance the upper pole fullness or volume of the breasts, or sometimes by correcting a deformity or scar. The same technique applies as far as Dr. Kim assessing which area of the body to take the undesired fat from and then using a filtration system to then distribute the fat to the desired area in the breast. Choosing a breast enhancement method is a personal decision. You may consider this procedure if you want slightly larger breasts, but don’t want breast implants or other reasons listed above.

Setting up a consultation with Dr. Kim to discuss your tailored surgical plan is the best place to start the process. He will be able to provide you with all the information to make the best-informed decision. We look forward to meeting you.
