Fat injection has become increasingly popular over the past few years. The procedure involves withdrawing fat from one area of your body and injecting it into another. For example, fat injections can be used to smooth lines in your face or build up other features such as your lips. Because the fat is your own tissue, there is no chance of allergy or rejection.
Although patients achieve long-lasting results, a certain percentage of injected fat is reabsorbed by the body. Therefore, the procedure may need to be repeated to achieve and maintain the desired results.
Fat injection that is properly performed in facial areas or used to "fill in" contour irregularities in other parts of the body is a safe and effective procedure. Please note that injection of fat to enlarge the breasts is a dangerous procedure and is not recommended because of the possibility of dense scarring that may seriously hinder accurate interpretation of both breast self-exams and mammograms.
