I want to get smart lipo for my abdoman, sides and a couple of other places. I want to also get fat transfer to my buttocks, is that possible?
Answer: Fat injections for buttock can't be used from Smart lipo
As SmartLipo is subjecting the fat to thermal (or heat) trauma, the fat cells are destroyed and won't live well in the new area. Tumescent liposuction, however, does not damage the fat in this way, and those fat cells can be retrieved and used for fat injecitons.

Answer: Can I Use Fat from Smart Lipo or Tumescent Lipo for Fat Transfer?
Yes, fat transfer is always possible if the patient has enough fat to liposuction. I would recommend standard tumescent liposuction as smart lipo will damage the cells.

Answer: No problem, combining fat harvest with any lipo technique.
We simply harvest the fat before the therapeutic liposuction begins. That way we are assured of good, healthy fat for transfer. We pick the area to be done that needs the most liposuction and take the deepest layer of fat, usually the sub-scarpa's fat of the abdomen. Knee fat works even better.

Answer: Fat transfer For successful fat transfer, it is best to use fat cells that are alive and not injured. Smart lipo uses laser to burst the fat cells. Thus most will not be viable. Therefore your result will be negatively affected.

Dear Punkin,
Thank you for your question. I am uncertain as to whether there is disruption of the fat cells with smart lipo- this laser actually targets water to generate heat and supposedly skin tightening. There are techniques to harvest your fat and use it to shape the face and body I have done this for the breasts, buttocks, face and contour irregularities from liposuction and other scars. The technique of harvest and injection are both important- and can achieve amazing results!
With Warm Regards,
