Lipofilling

Lipofilling, also known as fat grafting or fat injection, is a procedure in which the body’s own fat tissue is taken from one area of the body and transplanted to another area to add volume or enhance contours. The fat is usually taken from areas such as the abdomen, hips or thighs and, after preparation, injected into specific areas of the body that need more volume, such as the face, breasts or buttocks.

Procedure

At the beginning, there is a detailed consultation with Dr. Adžemović. During this conversation, your individual wishes, expectations and goals will be discussed. Dr Adžemović will assess your physical condition and the areas to be treated to determine whether you are a suitable candidate for lipofilling treatment.

The actual procedure begins with fat removal. This is usually done under local or general anaesthesia. Dr Adžemović uses a gentle liposuction technique to remove excess fat tissue from areas such as the abdomen, hips or thighs. Small incisions are made to insert the suction cannulas and suck out the fat.

The fat tissue that is removed is then carefully processed. This can be done by centrifugation or filtration to separate the fat from blood and other unwanted components.

After the fat has been prepared, the actual injection of the transplanted fat takes place. Dr Adžemović uses fine injection cannulas to inject the fat into the areas to be treated. In doing so, he strategically places the fat to achieve the desired volume and improve the contours. The precise injection technique and placement of the fat are crucial to achieve natural and symmetrical results.

The treatment is followed by a recovery period. Dr Adžemović will give you precise instructions for aftercare. This may include wearing compression garments on the donor site to reduce swelling, avoiding strenuous activity and relieving pressure in the infiltration area for a period of time. It is important to follow our instructions carefully for smooth healing and optimal results.
The exact procedure of a lipofilling treatment may vary depending on individual needs and goals. A personal consultation with Dr Adžemović will help you to discuss the specific treatment plan and expected procedure in detail and clarify any open questions.

FAQ

Lipofilling, also known as fat transfer or fat injection, is a procedure in which fat tissue is taken from one part of the body and then injected into another part to increase volume or improve contours.

Lipofilling can be used in various areas of the body, including the face (such as cheeks and lips), chest, buttocks, hands and other areas of the body that show volume loss or need contour enhancement.

The lipofilling procedure consists of two steps. First, fat tissue is removed by gentle liposuction from donor areas, such as the abdomen, hips or thighs. The suctioned fat is then processed and injected into the desired recipient areas to add volume and enhance contours.

Some of the transplanted fat tissue may be resorbed by the body after the treatment. However, the surviving fat cells have a tendency to remain permanently at the injected sites. The final long-term durability of the results may vary from patient to patient.
