Autologous Fat Transfer is the procedure women have been dreaming about for decades. Now that dream is a reality. This is the revolutionary procedure that has finally allowed women to transfer fat from an unwanted place on their body, to another area that needs a boost. This procedure is safe, quick, and changing the face of plastic surgery as we know it.
In the past when a woman wanted to change the contour of her body it meant going through traditional surgery. This included unsightly and painful incisions and general anesthesia. This type of surgery carries many risks. Autologous Fat Transfer is safe and requires no incisions.
The procedure is done under local anesthesia. Anesthetic is injected into the areas of the body where fat will be removed and the area where fat will be added. No incisions are required! The fat is removed with a syringe or a procedure similar to typical liposuction. It is then treated with your body’s own stem cells to stimulate growth of the fat in the new body part. After treatment, the fat is introduced into the desired area.
Because this is a natural procedure, there is not risk of allergic reaction. What could be more natural than using your own fat to contour areas of your body? Autologous fat transfer is used to increase breast size, and shape the buttocks. It can also be used to contour the lips and reduce wrinkles. Wrinkles are caused by a loss of volume that occurs as we age. This volume can be replaced in the face and hands with a simple injection.
Fat transfer is a simple and quick procedure. Local anesthetic will last for approximately 18-36 hours. Recovery time is minimal. Most patients can expect to return to their normal daily routine within 3-4 days and will require only Tylenol for pain after they leave the center. A small amount of bruising, redness or swelling in the donor and receiving areas of the body is normal.
Dr. Cappiello has a personal touch and will be involved in all stages of your procedure from planning to performing the procedure himself in his state of the art facility which is licensed by the state of Florida. Call Dr. Cappiello today for a free consultation.
