Hello Interloper!

What are the downsides to fat transfer?
I have been performing fat transfer procedures since the year 2000.
To this day I have not seen many problems as a result of this procedure.
The most common problem that I have experienced is when the patients that wanted to have fat transferred to the breasts (especially!) are already too slim and do not have sufficient fat to have the procedure done properly.
This problem is now lessened with the use of more efficient fat extraction techniques so that sufficient fat can be transferred.
