How is fat transfer done in Iran?

The process of fat grafting and Fat injection in Iran includes three stages: fat extraction from the donor area, fat purification, and fat injection to the desired areas. In the stage of extracting and emptying, fat is extracted from the donor area using liposuction techniques. The fat injection device removes the right amount of fat from these areas using suction power. In the fat purification stage, the extracted fats are processed using a centrifuge to separate waste materials, excess fluid, and dead cells from living fat cells. Pure fat is finally poured into special injection syringes. In the last step of fat transfer surgery, the fats prepared for injection will be injected into the specified areas. At this stage, fat injection is not done all at once, and after the injection, a specific amount of the needle must be removed from the skin and inserted again. This causes the fat areas to be placed in the damaged areas and fill them completely.

The amount of injected fat in fat grafting is measured in cc and varies according to the physical characteristics of the patient and the area of the body where the processed fat is injected. Also, in some cases, the extraction and injection steps are repeated several times to create a suitable volume in the area. This procedure may take about 1 to 3 hours; Of course, if the injection area is wide or the severity of the injury is high, the operation time will increase up to 4 or 5 hours.

“Fat injection is one of the methods that delay the aging process.

 

• Facial fat injection

Facial rejuvenation is a procedure performed by plastic surgeons to transfer fat from areas that have excess fat to other areas of the face that lack volume. The purpose of Fat injection in Iran is to rejuvenate the face by increasing volume, changing lines, and reducing the appearance of wrinkles. In other words, the main use of fat grafting is to fill the parts of the body that have sagging and lines (wrinkles) due to sudden weight loss with age.

• Cheeks and lips enhancement
• Shaping the chin and angularizing the jaw
• Getting rid of wrinkles forehead and around the eyes
• Treatments of scars and dents
• Removing wrinkles around the mouth (marionette lines, nasolabial lines) 

• Breast augmentation with fat grafting

Breast augmentation by fat grafting is a newer and more natural method compared to implants. Breast augmentation is a cosmetic surgery to increase the size and shape the breasts. In this method, cosmetic surgeons use liposuction to extract fat cells from your body. In the next step, the extracted fats are purified and ready for injection. Breast augmentation with fat transfer has fewer risks than breast implants. Also, fat transfer surgery is successfully performed in breast reconstruction after mastectomy surgery in patients.

 

• Fat grafting for patients with breast cancer

Breast reconstruction in breast cancer patients after mastectomy is often performed with fat grafting. The purpose of breast reconstruction is to correct the changes in the appearance of the body in these patients. Fat grafting is a selective method for breast reconstruction. According to the patient’s body shape, patient’s age, patient’s mental state, request for possible future pregnancy, medical history, radiotherapy, and other diseases, the expert doctor suggests the method of fat injection and the necessary number of times. In breast reconstruction with fat grafting, excess fat is usually collected from the abdomen or thighs by liposuction and then injected into one or both breasts for cosmetic improvement.

• Fat transfer to the buttocks and hips

Buttocks and hip augmentation increase the volume, shaping, removing sagging, and smoothing the skin. Fat injection in Iran is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures for the augmentation of the hips and buttocks. The buttocks and hips fat injection procedure creates rounder, firmer, and younger-looking buttocks. In this method, fat around the abdomen or upper thighs is removed through liposuction. Then the fat is purified and the pure fat is injected into the required parts. As a result, the person’s hips become large and prominent to a very desirable extent, and this added volume makes the body more shapely and attractive. Although buttock augmentation with fat injection has a more natural appearance than prosthetics, because some of the injected fat is absorbed after the operation, the butt bulge will decrease over time. Generally, 60 to 80% of fat will be retained in the body after injection.

• Hand rejuvenation with fat injection

Fat injection in Iran for hand rejuvenation is one of the popular beauty methods. Fat grafting in the hands is used to correct the decrease in the volume of the hands that occurs due to the effect of increasing age.

Fat injection into the hand can eliminate wrinkles and laxity of the hand skin, and on the other hand, it can create a good appearance in thin hands.
