Fat grafting, also known as fat transfer or fat injection, is a cosmetic procedure that involves transferring fat from one area of the body to another to enhance volume, contour, and rejuvenate the appearance. At the GBL Aesthetics Dedicated Centre for Cosmetic Surgery and Plastic Surgery and Hair Transplant in Central India, Dr. Ekta Mishra Gautam utilizes the magic of fat grafting to revitalize and enhance the natural beauty of her patients.
The procedure of fat grafting involves harvesting excess fat from areas of the body where it is available, such as the abdomen, thighs, or buttocks, and transferring it to areas that may lack volume or require rejuvenation, such as the face, breasts, or hands. Fat grafting offers a dual benefit of sculpting and contouring the donor area while enhancing the target area, resulting in a more balanced and harmonious appearance.
One of the primary benefits of fat grafting is its natural approach. Since the procedure uses the patient’s own fat cells, there is no risk of rejection or allergic reaction. The harvested fat is processed and purified before being injected into the target area, ensuring that only healthy and viable fat cells are utilized. This natural approach provides long-lasting results and a more organic rejuvenation compared to synthetic fillers.
Fat grafting can effectively restore volume and rejuvenate the face, making it appear more youthful and revitalized. As we age, the face may lose volume, leading to hollowed cheeks, deep creases, or thin lips. Fat grafting can address these concerns by strategically injecting the harvested fat into areas that require augmentation or rejuvenation. The injected fat can fill out hollow areas, smooth out wrinkles, and enhance facial contours, resulting in a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
Furthermore, fat grafting can also enhance the appearance of the breasts. It can be used to achieve subtle breast augmentation or to improve the symmetry and shape of the breasts. The transferred fat can add volume and fullness to the breasts, creating a more natural and proportionate contour. Fat grafting can also be utilized in breast reconstruction procedures following mastectomy, helping to restore a natural appearance and improving overall breast aesthetics.
The procedure of fat grafting begins with a thorough consultation with Dr. Ekta Mishra Gautam. She evaluates the patient’s concerns, discusses the desired outcomes, and determines the areas suitable for fat harvesting and transfer. The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the extent of the treatment.
During the procedure, fat cells are carefully harvested using a gentle liposuction technique. The fat is then processed to isolate and purify the healthy fat cells. Dr. Ekta Mishra Gautam strategically injects the processed fat into the target areas, sculpting and contouring as needed to achieve the desired results.
Following fat grafting, patients may experience some swelling, bruising, or temporary discomfort in both the donor and target areas. Dr. Ekta Mishra Gautam provides detailed post-operative care instructions and closely monitors the healing process. Over time, the swelling subsides, and the injected fat cells establish a blood supply, resulting in long-lasting and natural-looking results.
