- Fat Harvesting:
Looking for expert solutions to restore natural volume?
Dr. Rachana Tataria offers advanced Lipo-Filling techniques to enhance contours, rejuvenate your appearance, and boost your confidence naturally.
Lipo-filling, also known as fat grafting, is a minimally invasive procedure that uses the patient's own fat to enhance volume in areas of the body or face that appear sunken or deflated and for.
This technique involves liposuction to extract fat from areas with excess fat, such as the abdomen or thighs, followed by filtration and re-injection of the fat into targeted areas to restore or enhance volume and contour various body areas.
Unlike synthetic implants, fat grafting offers a natural look and feel, using the body’s own tissue to create a youthful contour. It’s particularly popular for facial rejuvenation, breast augmentation and body contouring. With minimal risk of rejection and long-lasting results, fat grafting is a safe, effective, and versatile procedure.
Fat grafting uses your own fat, making it a natural alternative to implants. Implants are foreign objects placed into the body, which may have higher risks of complications over time.
Fat grafting, on the other hand, is a more organic procedure that offers a more natural aesthetic and reduces the risk of rejection.
Ideal candidates for fat grafting are those who have sufficient fat in other areas of the body that can be harvested for use.
It is also a great option for individuals who prefer a more natural method of enhancing volume, as opposed to implants, and those looking for subtle yet long-lasting results.
While fat grafting offers long-lasting results, it is important to note that some of the injected fat may be absorbed by the body over time.
However, a significant amount of the grafted fat typically remains, giving you natural, lasting volume. Sometimes the procedure will need to be done in stages to give you the extra volume and retain it.
The amount of fat required depends on the area being treated and the volume desired. For instance, facial rejuvenation may require less fat compared to breast augmentation.
Dr. Rachana will assess your individual needs and determine the appropriate amount of fat required for optimal results.
Fat grafting offers more than just cosmetic benefits. For patients who undergo liposuction for fat removal, this procedure can help restore volume to areas that may have lost shape due to aging or weight loss.
One significant health benefit of fat grafting is its ability to correct asymmetries, such as uneven facial features, scar rejuvenation and restore youthful contours without the need for synthetic implants.
Additionally, because the procedure uses your body’s own tissue, there is minimal risk of allergic reactions or complications. It’s an ideal choice for individuals looking for natural enhancement with long-term, safe outcomes.
Yes, fat grafting is highly effective for restoring lost facial volume, which helps smooth out wrinkles and restore youthful contours.
It is commonly used in facial rejuvenation to correct sunken cheeks, under-eye hollows, and other areas of volume loss. It can also help correct and rejuvenate scars which are hollow and asymmetric by restoring volume.
Since fat grafting uses your body’s own fat, it is considered a safe and natural procedure with a lower risk of rejection compared to synthetic implants.
However, as with any surgery, there are risks involved, which Dr. Rachana will discuss with you in detail during your consultation.
Fat grafting can fill in areas with scarring or skin depressions, making it a useful technique for improving the appearance of post-surgical scars, acne scars, or other skin irregularities. It helps smooth out the skin’s texture and provides a more even appearance.
The procedure typically takes 1 to 3 hours, depending on the areas treated.
The fat grafting procedure consists of several key steps:
The procedure generally takes 1 to 3 hours, depending on the number of areas being treated. Dr. Rachana will provide an estimated time during your consultation based on your personalized treatment plan.
Fat grafting is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation, though general anesthesia may be used in more complex cases or if multiple areas are treated simultaneously.
Dr. Rachana will determine the most suitable anesthesia for your comfort.
Recovery from fat grafting is generally shorter than other major surgeries. Most patients can return to work within a week or two, but full recovery, including the absorption of some of the injected fat, may take a few months.
Dr. Rachana will guide you through the recovery process to ensure optimal healing.

The recovery after fat grafting is relatively smooth, but there are a few important considerations:
Most patients can return to work within 5 to 7 days after the procedure, as long as their job doesn’t involve heavy physical activity. You may experience mild swelling and bruising, which should not significantly affect your daily routine.
It is advised to avoid strenuous exercise for about 4 to 6 weeks after the procedure. Light activities can be resumed earlier, but it's important to follow Dr. Rachana’s guidelines to ensure proper healing and to prevent complications
Yes, some of the injected fat will be reabsorbed by the body in the weeks following the procedure.
However, a significant portion of the fat will remain, providing natural and long-lasting results. The amount of fat that remains varies from patient to patient.
