Can fat cells be moved from one part of the body to another?

Following a butt lift more fat can be placed into the buttocks in a secondary procedure. After several months, the fat acquires its own blood supply. New fat can then be grafted in the same manor. It is important to discuss how much fat may be necessary to obtain your ideal result. Best Wishes Theodore T. Nyame MD

Well, I am interpreting your question differently from the other 2 physicians answering prior to me.  Once the fat cells are grafted into the buttock of a moderately healthy individual, they will quickly become anchored into place (not move elsewhere), and develop a good blood supply within the first month.  It is important not to sit on hard surfaces for prolonged periods for one full month after the transfer.  Hope this helps!Windell C.
