Candidacy and Safety Review
A consultation reviews medical history, medications, allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding status, prior procedures, skin type, healing history, and the timing of events or travel before a treatment plan is recommended.
Body Contouring Candidacy
- Best-fit plans depend on stable weight, pinchable fat, skin laxity, BMI, medical history, and recovery availability.
- Non-surgical fat reduction is not a weight-loss substitute.
- Laser lipo and fat transfer require more recovery planning than non-invasive treatments.
- Maintenance depends on weight stability, nutrition, activity, and follow-up recommendations.
Local Service Area

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does fat transfer last?
Transferred fat cells that successfully integrate into the new area can provide volume that lasts over time. However, aging and significant weight fluctuations can still affect your overall appearance.
Is fat transfer safe?
Because fat transfer uses your own tissue, allergy risk is lower than with some synthetic materials. Risks, healing, fat survival, and suitability still vary and should be reviewed during consultation.
What is the recovery like?
Recovery is generally quicker than traditional liposuction. You may have some swelling or bruising for a week or two, but most patients return to light activities within a few days.
Where can fat be transferred?
Common areas include the face (to restore volume), hands (to hide veins and tendons), breasts (for modest augmentation), and buttocks (Brazilian Butt Lift).
