Operative Technique
Standard liposuction technique allows us to retain the viability of the fat cells and allow it to survive in other tissues such as muscle or subcutaneous fat. Lasers, or other devices, achieve the goal of reducing fat by heating or cooling the cells, thus causing them to burst or shrink. These liposuction techniques are not appropriate for harvesting healthy fat cells and therefore should not be used for an any transfer.
Fat transfer techniques have also been used for procedures of the face and breast. Dr. Hazani uses fat to augment areas of the face during a facelift or eyelid surgery. Similarly moderate enhancement of the breast can be achieved with fat grafting in breast augmentation or in breast reconstruction procedures.
