What Is an Autologous Fat Transfer?
Autologous fat transfer, also known as fat grafting, lipofilling, or fat injection, is a surgical procedure that harvests fat from one area of your body and transfers it to another area. “Autologous” simply means the fat comes from your own body, making it the most natural option for volume restoration with no risk of rejection or allergic reaction.
The procedure involves three key steps. First, fat is harvested from donor areas where you have excess, such as the abdomen, thighs, flanks, back, or arms, using the laser-assisted liposuction technology, BeautiFill. This gentle extraction preserves the highest quality fat cells for better survival and longer-lasting results. Second, the harvested fat is purified and processed to remove impurities, blood, and damaged cells, concentrating only the most viable fat for transfer. Finally, the purified fat is injected layer by layer into the treatment areas to restore volume and smooth contours.

Frequently Asked Questions
While dermal fillers are temporary synthetic or biologic products that dissolve over time, autologous fat transfer uses your own living fat cells for permanent enhancement. Fat transfer also provides the dual benefit of contouring donor areas through liposuction. However, fat transfer is a surgical procedure requiring downtime, while fillers are non-surgical with minimal recovery.
Once the transferred fat successfully integrates and establishes a blood supply, the surviving fat becomes permanent. You can expect 60-80% of the transferred fat to survive long-term, providing lasting volume enhancement. These results are permanent and age naturally with your body, though significant weight fluctuations can affect your outcome.
Good candidates for fat transfer have sufficient fat in donor areas for harvesting, are in good overall health, have realistic expectations about results and fat survival rates, and desire natural-looking volume restoration or enhancement.
Recovery varies depending on the areas treated. Facial fat transfer typically requires less downtime than larger body areas like the buttocks or breasts. Most patients experience swelling and bruising that improves over the first few weeks. You may need to wear a compression garment on donor areas and avoid pressure on treatment areas during initial healing. Your provider will give you specific guidance on activity restrictions, positioning, and what to expect during each phase of recovery.
