Is fat transfer permanent? is fat transfer a permanent procedure, or will it have to be repeated to maintain results?

The : The fat that "takes" after facial fat grafting shuold give a permament result. However, as with the fat that was already in your face it too will age and decrease with time. I would expect you to always look better than you would have otherwise (more volume), but the natural aging process will proceed over the years. One aspect of the procedure is that there is some variability in how much fat "takes". In some cases it is beneficial to do a touch up transfer procedure 12 or 18 months after the first to maximize the results.

For : For the most part yes it may have to be repeated to maintain the gains you got.The aging process will continue and in the face, for example, obne of the things that happens is we lose fat.www.beautybybrueck.com.

Fat : Fat that is transferred to another body site and survives will, for all practical purposes, be permanent. However this does not mean the it is a one time operation. You may have to repeat this in order to supplement or compensate for the ongoing aging process which is constantly changing the appearance of your face.

Permanence: The best, most experienced surgeons do two procedures when possible to increase predictability, results, and "permanence". Single procedure fat transfers with predictably good, noticeable long term results will generally leave you being swollen for an extended period of time (few weeks), while more careful, double transfers will not as much. The reason better fat graft survival at 6 weeks: blood!

Should be permanent: Although fat transfer is permanent, not all of the fat that is transplanted survives. New techniques of processing the fat has significantly improved the viability of transplanted fat. The fat cells that survive the transplant are living tissue and should act like native fat. Generally, what you see left after 3 months is your final result.

Yes: Fat transfer is permanent. How much fat will survive the transplant depends on many factors, including harvesting techniques, use of PRP and injection techniques. Everyone loses fat as they age and this will continue; the transferred fat will act like the rest of the fat in the area. http://www.omahacosmeticsurgery.com/contouring-procedures-category/fat-transfer/

It can be permanent: When done correctly, fat grafts are permanent. When done incorrectly, they don’t last and you will likely need a redo. Fat grafting results are highly dependent on surgical technique (extraction, processing, and reinjection of the fat) and on following your post-op instructions closely to ensure fat survival. http://www.cosmeticsurg.net/blog/2009/12/03/recipe-for-permanent-fat-injections/
