Can Fat Removed During TT Be Stored to Use Later for a Fat Transfer to the Butt Area?

November 16, 2011
Asked By:MiamiMama01 in Miami, FL

I'm having My gallbladder removed and a TT with some light sculping lipo (he is not doing any lipo to my back area). I would also like to do a fat transfer but does not think it will be a good idea to flip me over. So can I ask him to store the fat so I can have it transferred to my butt at a later time? Will there be enough fat to use for fat transfer to that area? Can the transfer be done under local? I don't want a huge butt just something a little more plump than what I have now.
