Fat transfer to legs - is it a viable and safe option?

Question

I want to augment my quadriceps and hamstrings and was wondering if fat transfer is a viable and safe option?

Zoran Potparic, MD · Answer

Augmentation and shaping of the muscles of upper extremity and torso is new and evolving concept in plastic  surgery. Very few surgeons in the world have enough experience in this area to be able to discuss benefits and risks. It is quite possible that some have done fat grafting of lower extremity muscles? Implants may be a good alternative in some patients. You should approach this area of body sculpting with wide open eyes. Hope this helps.

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

Fat transfer in those areas may not work well, but nonsurgical EMSculpt is very safe and effective way to build and tone muscle in those areas.
