Fat transfer is a procedure that adds volume in areas of the body where it is lacking. The surgeon removes fat from areas such as the abdomen and thighs. The fat is purified and injected into the area where the additional volume is desired. The fat can be placed in any number of areas including the cheeks, the lips, breasts and the corner of the eyes to enhance the appearance of the area and reduce signs of aging such as wrinkles and fine lines. It can also be used to lessen irregularities in the skin.
