If you’ve ever wished you could take fat from one area of your body and use it to enhance another, a fat transfer might be the perfect solution. This procedure allows you to contour your body by removing unwanted fat from areas like the abdomen or thighs and redistributing it to enhance volume in areas such as the buttocks known as a Brazilian Butt Lift), breasts, or face. It’s a natural way to achieve balance and symmetry, helping you feel more comfortable and confident in your own skin.

ICLS Plastic Surgery is a leader in fat transfer procedures, welcoming patients from the Greater Toronto Area to our Oakville clinic. We take a highly personalized approach, ensuring that each fat transfer is tailored to your individual goals and body shape. By using your own natural fat, we can create subtle, yet transformative results that help you achieve the look you desire. Ready to explore the possibilities?

Aftercare and Recovery

As with all cosmetic surgery procedures, you will need to recuperate for a brief period following a fat grafting procedure. The recovery period for fat grafting will be different for each individual based on the extent of your surgery, the area of your body affected and the amount of fat cells being removed and being transferred. There will be some swelling, bruising and discomfort. These may last only a few days, or it could take a few weeks to recover, again based on the extent of your surgery.

The area where the fat has been harvested will have a very small incision less than 0.5cm. The injected recipient site will be swollen and reddened for a few days and this is normal. Swelling may persist for up to 7-10 days and will subside over time. You will be asked to wear a support garment for a few weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Who Is A Good Candidate For Fat Transfer?

    Fat grafting or fat transfer can be used in many areas of the body and combined with other procedures. It’s best for individuals who desire a more long lasting correction over the use of temporary fillers, wish to improve body contouring and facial rejuvenation.

    In the breasts, fat transfer can be used to fill in breast irregularities, enhance breast implants, or increase breast volume. If you wish for a modestly larger breast size, you are the ideal candidate. Those who desire a significant increase in breast size may want to consider breast augmentation.

  • How Long Does Fat Transfer Last?

    Not all the fat cells that are transferred will “take.” Patients can expect to lose 30-40% of the transferred fat cells within the first six months. It takes 6-12 months to see the final results, which will remain as long as their weight remains stable.

  • How Much Does Fat Transfer Surgery Cost?

    Fat transfer costs vary based on the area being treated and whether additional procedures are needed.

    • Fat Transfer to Breasts: The cost ranges from $15,900 to $26,000, depending on whether a breast lift is also required to achieve the desired result.
    • Fat Transfer to Buttocks: This procedure is generally priced at $19,900.
    • Fat Transfer to Smaller Areas (face, chin, tear troughs): Prices for this treatment range from $4,200 to $8,400, depending on the area and the volume of fat transferred.
    • S.I.E.F. (Simultaneous Implant Exchange with Fat): For those looking to remove breast implants and replace them with fat, the cost typically ranges from $17,900 to $28,000.

    As with all cosmetic surgeries, the final cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the specific goals of your treatment. A personalized consultation will provide a detailed quote based on your needs.
