Fat Transplantation

Fat is collected with syringes to where there is a large amount of fat like the stomach and thighs during fat transplantation; and pure fat is extracted by using centrifugal separators. Then the fat is injected into places where fat is needed such as the cheeks and forehead. It gives volume to a flat face and adjusts parts with many wrinkles and where it is sunken. Some of the fat that are transplanted are absorbed into the body but the fat that are engrafted are maintained almost permanently, and there are no rejection since the fat is collected from your own body.
