What happens during the fat purification process for a BBL fat transfer?

Most of the obvious blood and saline is removed from the fat mixture prior to injection. Each surgeon has a slightly different protocol for handling the fat, some will wash it with saline, some will dry it on gauze and some will re-inject everything they removed from the liposuction. Some will also centrifuge (spin) the fat to removed some more blood and oil. For fat transfer to the buttock, most of the visible blood and saline is removed prior to straining the fat. Roughly about 60% or so of the fat will survive if strained and injected properly. Consult with a plastic surgeon in person to see if you are a good candidate for this procedure.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno

I use gravity filtration.  I use tumescent liposuction to harvest the fat.  I feel I get good results that way and I think it minimizes damage to the fat cells.  The harvested fat is placed in a special container that allows us to separate the liquid from the fat.  The fat is then removed and injected into the areas to be treated.
