Now, interested in having this fat removed, but concerned that following the procedure the fat will return in another area (visceral and/or face, arms..etc.). I'm curious if fat grafting to another area - similar to how woman may have thigh lipo and use the fat to augment their breasts..etc.. I am curious if that is done in men, as it is in woman, and if so, where are some areas where the removed fat may be grafted/reinserted?

Answer: Male liposuction Hello and thank you for your excellent question. Based on your description, you are certainly a candidate for additional liposuction. With regards to fat grafting in men, it is possible to have fat grafted to many different areas. This may include your pectoral muscles, calves, biceps, facial fat grafting, or even penile fat grafting. Of course, you will need an in-person consultation to evaluate you for this procedure. Preoperative visualization and surgical simulation with the Crisalix system may help with your decision. Any treatment plan should be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you and your surgeon. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation in person with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!

Answer: Don't gain weight after liposuction. After a liposuction you simply cannot gain much weight. Weight will always go somewhere. Weight can collect around the intestines, on arms or back, or any area not treated. Fat transfer in males is less common than in females but fat can be transferred to the face or to any deficient area. My Best, Dr Commons
