Is It True That Plated Rich Plasma Make the Fat Cells Survive Up to 90 %? i read some dr used prp in fat transfer ( The fat that has PRP added is called “SmartFat”. SmartFat can be thought of as sending “text messages” to the body to help promote fat cell survival. PRP also helps the stem cells within the SmartFat to excrete a hormone that helps attract blood to an area) to make the risul preminant ?

A: The effects of PRP are still not clearly known.

This procedure needs a good double blind study to see if there is any real substance to the claims. We are all hoping the ultimate youth serum that promote good healing, longer life and beauty. We will need to wait for some good scientific evidence. It is a safe procedure, however you may be paying extra for no greater benefit.

Is Stored Fat Safe to Use for Fat Transfer? I had fat removed from my thigh and injected into my face in March 2008. Some of it was stored and frozen. Is the frozen, stored fat safe to inject again? My fat has been frozen now for 10 months.

A: Frozen fat for fat grafting

Fat grafting is fickle. Frozen fat would not be expected to have the same viability as freshly harvested fat. A better strategy would be to harvest only the amount of fat that is being transferred in the same setting.
