Fat Grafting
Grafting of autologous fat tissue is a minimally invasive surgical technique that starts with the harvest of fat tissue from the abdomen or thighs using liposuction through incisions less than 2mm in length. The lipoaspirate is then processed to concentrate the adipose fraction and reinjected into the graft site. This surgical procedure involves the immediate transplantation of a patient's own tissue in a single operative procedure.
