Asked By:DreamCatcher19 in Los Angeles, California

Ok, so weird question and I know it sounds kind of gross but I'm rather curious so pose this more as a hypothetical; Could one use the fat from a lipoma in a facial fat transfer? I understand the amount needed probably varies based on how big the procedure is but in theory, is this something that's possible? Is it a different kind of fat than what is needed for the face?
