Fat transfer requires non-traumatized fat cells.

MS76,

Fat transfer requires non-traumatized fat cells. Smart Lipo uses a laser to melt the fat. These fat cells would not be viable for transfer techniques. Depending on how much fat you need transfered, it would be possible to do traditional liposuction to get enough fat for transfer and then perform Smart Lipo everywhere else.

I hope this is helpful.

Fat melted down by Smart Lipo is not live fat.  The Brazilian Butt Lift relies on live fat being reinjected into the buttocks.

Using fat from Smartlipo to augment the breast is probably not a good idea.  SInce Smartlipo uses a heating component to melt the fat, I do not think that the fat cells will be viable to take in the buttock tissues.
