Is Fat Transfer Liposuction Safer Than Liposuction?

May 2, 2011
Asked By:DeniJ in Los Angeles, California

I want to know if getting a fat transfer liposuction from an area of the body (thighs, etc) to the face, is safer than just straight liposuction? If so, why? I am concerned that the fat transfer lipo-method has the same odds of complications of liposuction. (However you take out MUCH more fat with body sculpting, and go deeper, correct?)
