Autologous (own) fat transplantation serves to fill in tissue irregularities or deep wrinkles and creases in the face, but also in other regions of the body. For the own fat transplantation fat is removed by liposuction from a fat pad then specially prepared and transplanted into the affected body part. Ideally a combination of liposuction with autologous fat transplantation will be used, as this can be performed in one session and mostly by local anesthetic.
