Fat transplantation

Fat grafting is a procedure in which fat cells are harvested from a part of the body where there is excess fat, such as the abdomen or thighs, and then injected into another part of the body that needs more volume or shape. This procedure can be used to improve the appearance of areas such as the face, breasts, buttocks, or hands.

The fat transfer process begins with the patient being assessed by a plastic surgeon at Kalbakkenklinikken. The surgeon will discuss the patient's wishes and expectations, as well as evaluate whether the patient is suitable for the procedure. It is important to note that not all patients are good candidates for fat transfer, as it requires a sufficient amount of fat tissue to harvest from.

Once the patient has been approved for fat grafting, the surgeon will perform the procedure under general or local anesthesia, depending on the extent of the procedure. First, the fat cells will be harvested using a special suction cannula through small incisions in the skin. This fat is then processed and purified before being injected into the desired area.

Fat grafting can be an effective method for improving the volume and shape of various parts of the body. It can be used to fill in wrinkles and lines on the face, increase breast volume, add shape to the buttocks, or smooth out unevenness on the body. The results of fat grafting can be permanent, but it is important to note that a certain percentage of the transferred fat cells may not survive and be absorbed by the body.

After fat transfer, the patient will experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated areas. It is important to carefully follow the aftercare instructions provided by Kalbakkenklinikken to ensure a quick and successful recovery. The patient may also be advised to wear compression garments to reduce swelling and support the new shape.

Like any surgical procedure, fat grafting also involves certain risks and complications. These may include infection, bleeding, asymmetry, unevenness, or loss of fat cells. It is important to discuss these risks thoroughly with a plastic surgeon at Kalbakkenklinikken before making a decision about fat grafting.
