How would that work? Would another cosmetic doctor need to be hired? What can I expect as far as results?
Answer: Fat transfer for lip augmentation Fat can be transferred to anywhere on the body. Lip augmentation requires very little volume and grafts are permanent (a blessing or curse depending upon outcome). Additionally, graft take rates in the face are relatively higher often exceeding 50%.With regards to your specific question, BBL can be combined with lip augmentation without difficulty. Expectations will depend upon how much fat is grafted and the technique employed. Fat should be used sparingly in the lip. Due to the high vascularity, special care should be taken to avoid intravascular injection and fat emboli.As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS).

Answer: Fat transfer to lips during BBL As a American Board of Plastic Surgery board certified plastic surgeon, I combine fat transfer procedures of all types. By 6 weeks, you should see much of the final result, but it may take 3 to 6 months to realize a stable result. In general, fat grafting has a permanence in the face of greater than 50%.

Answer: BBL and Fat Transfer to Lips It is possible, and you can have great results! It is only about 4cc's of fat needed for the transfer. Keep in mind that for best results with a BBL, High Definition liposuction with VASER technology, as well as Puregraft fat transfer will give the highest yield of fat.
