Answer: Fat viability Dear 12312345123,in most cases 30-40% of transferred fat will be lost. You should expect to see the final results 4-5 weeks after transfer. Fat viability depends a lot of surgeon technique. The fat has to be placed back into the buttocks as soon as possible so that it has a greater chance of survival. It has to be placed carefully so that not too much fat is placed in only one area. Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, Am. Society of Plastic Surgery

Answer: How long does it take for fat to "take"? Your buttocks and hips will shrink for the first 4 to 6 weeks, and many patients wish more of the fat would stay.
