Home General Fat Transfer – Keeping It Natural

February 23, 2018

The best-looking results are natural-looking results. Injectable fillers are able to achieve the magnificent results they provide by trying to mimic natural beauty. A fat transfer, also known as fat grafting, utilizes the body’s natural fat tissue to enhance your beauty.

The fat used in the process is harvested from your own body, ensuring that your body will not reject the tissue as something foreign. It also carries no risk of the possibility of an allergic reaction within the body. Once transferred, the fat cells will connect to the blood supply, prolonging your results.

Fat grafting can be used in place of a filler product in a number of situations. It is commonly used as an alternative to dermal fillers when providing facial rejuvenation. Contact our office to schedule a consultation. Plastic surgeon Dr. Jennifer Emmett can provide you with beautiful results.
