I had thee best experience with both Dr. Schwartz and his staff. I went in for one thing and found out I didn't need it but that I had a disease that caused my issue. Dr Schwartz answered so many problems I've been having. I literally never …

My experience with Dr. Bruno and his team has been nothing but good! Prior to choosing Dr.Bruno for my breast augmentation, I had a consultation with another doctor. She stated that my type of BA would require a complex procedure that would increase the price of my BA significantly. After doing my research and posting on RealSelf, I felt that I needed a second opinion because what she said I had was not confirmed by other doctors. It left me feeling she was being dishonest about what I needed just to hike up the cost of the surgery. Dr. Bruno had been referred to me by a friend that also had a BA so I decided to book a consultation with him and I am sooooo glad I did. I've had such a pleasant experience with his team since the first time I reached out to them. Joselle has always been really sweet and accommodating. I explained to her that I would like to see Dr. Bruno as soon as possible because I had only a few days to decide whether I would go with the other surgeon (the other surgeon's quote was only good for a few days because of a promotion they had). She gave me an appointment slot that worked for me, later she ended up calling me the next day to let me know that there was an appointment that was a couple days earlier than my original appointment. I really appreciated it that as I had very limited time to make up my mind. The day of my consultation came and after meeting with Dr. Bruno, it was clear to me that I would be going with him for my BA. He explained the procedure in great detail and answered of all my questions honestly. It was completely different experience than my consultation with the other surgeon who was pushy and seemed annoyed that I had tons of questions. He and his team made me feel very comfortable and I never felt pressured by them, as I did with the other surgeon I consulted. Both Marisol and Joselle were just as helpful with answering all my questions as Dr. Bruno. Throughout the entire BA journey, his staff would call me to remind me of appointments as well as check up on me once I had the procedure. They genuinely care about their patients. As far as the results go, I am only three weeks out from surgery but I already love what I am seeing and can't wait for my final result as I really admire Dr. Bruno's work from the before and after pictures I have seen of other patients. I highly recommend Dr. Bruno and his team! If I ever decide to have other procedures, I will definitely be returning to him.THANK YOU!

After searching for a facial plastic surgeon for months, I was referred to Dr. Zimm by a physician colleague who praised him so highly after he did her rhinoplasty. I have to say that Dr. Zimm is truly the doctor’s doctor. As a physician myself, I sought out the best surgeon to work on my face. I had FaceTite done as well as chin augmentation using filler. I am beyond thrilled with the results. Dr. Zimm took a great deal of time explaining the various procedures that could be done and why these procedures were well suited to accomplish my goals. He was patient, kind, and explained things clearly and answered all of my questions. And on top of that, his staff was delightful. I highly recommend Dr. Zimm if you are considering any cosmetic procedure on your face. Seriously, the best decision I made.

Dr Mustoe has an unbelievable bedside manner. My son had an extreme deviated septum and unable to breathe out of his left nostril and additionally the nose was not straight. Our end goal was for him to breathe! Dr. Mustoe said he would get it as straight as he could and may not be perfect. After one month my son is able to breathe and his nose, while not perfectly straight, still looks like him and doesn't look like a 'done' nose. I would highly recommend Dr. Mustoe and his team.

Dr Mussat is a wonderful surgeon. I consulted with her in her downtown office. Upon entering her office her receptionist was welcoming and courteous. During my consultation Dr Mussat sat with me and gave me a presentation with information about my procedure. I felt that she was very thorough with her explanation. I was able to see actual footage of how she performs the procedure. This was impressive and she really took her time with me. I was also pleasantly surprised to find out that I fit the criteria for having this procedure as a medical necessity which turned out to be a covered benefit under my BCBS plan. I have since had my surgery and I’m so happy with the outcome. The only regret I have is that I didn’t have this sooner. I’m so grateful to Dr Mussat and this has been truly a blessing for me.

Dr. Max is one of the most outstanding surgeons and doctors you will ever meet and work with. Highly trained, highly skilled, an artist when it comes to aesthetics!For years before meeting Dr. Max, I heard from many people how wonderful he is - as a doctor and a human being. His staff take their q's from him and are also highly competent, very considerate and kind. Flexible too. If something comes up, they do not penalize you for being late to an appointment or having to cancel. Bernice in Dr. Max's Pasadena office is outstanding ... she understands all procedures, knows the pricing structure inside and out and is the keep of the schedule for Dr. Lehfeldt.Patricia V.

At first I wasn't sure how I became so at ease about proceeding with the surgery but than I came across this picture of Dr. Gregory Weiner in a wig during what appeared to be a Holloween celebration and It all made sense. On a more serious note, I can't say enough about this team at The Art of Plastic Surgery in Chicago. From the day of consultation to the day of surgery I knew I was in good hands. I have nothing but admiration for his attention to details, diligence and exceptional bedside manners. There's many MDs on social media receiving millions of likes and for that reason I was going to fly to New York without knowing an exceptional surgeon works in my back yard. Anyway, I still don't know what my nose looks like, heck maybe I don't even have a nose but I'm at ease because I know I chose the most knowledgeable and kind hearted people in Chicago. I'm going through a smooth recovery I'm almost scared that something might be very wrong because I didn't take one pain pill during the whole time. I'm having that emotional moment again, don't be all surprised now he he. I can't imagine having missed this experience in life.

What you need to know about Fat Transfer in United States
Also known as Fat Harvesting, Fat Grafting, Fat Injections, Lipofilling, Fat Transfer is a cosmetic surgery involving the movement of fat from one part of the body to another. During this procedure, your own fat will be used to fill in irregularities and grooves, primarily in the face, around the temples, eyes, chin, and lips. It can also be used to enhance the appearance of the breast, feet, hips, buttocks, and hands. The procedure is now a well-established technique that was perfected in the early nineties.
Some of the most common aesthetic indications for undergoing fat transfer / lipofilling include sunken cheeks, the disappearance of fat from the cheekbones, deep grooves running from the nose to the corners of the mouth, and in some instances of lines between the lower eyelids and the cheek. It is also one of the most common methods used for lip enhancement. In addition, lipofilling can be used to smooth out all types of irregularities such as those resulting from poorly performed liposuction or injuries.
The necessary fat is obtained by a limited liposculpture through one or several 3 to 5 mm incisions. It is normally taken from the abdomen or inner thigh. The aspirated fat is processed by centrifuging, filtering or rinsing. Pure liquid fatty tissue ready for injection is the result. The fat is then injected where needed. The fat is evenly distributed into the area by injecting minute amounts in the tissues so that the injected fat is well surrounded by healthy tissue. This ensures that the transplanted fat remains in contact with the surrounding tissues that must supply it with oxygen and nutrients.
What is the cost of Fat Transfer in United States?
Being aware of the costs linked to the Fat Transfer pricing in United States is vital for efficient budgeting and organizing. Pricing can differ greatly conditional to numerous things, such as the intricacies of the operation, the quantity of fat transferred, the surgeon's skill level, and the clinic's place. Conducting meticulous research and obtaining diverse quotations from multiple providers before settling is advisable.
Bear in mind, the Fat Transfer is generally deemed a vanity procedure, thus, it is not typically insured by health insurance providers. Exceptions may exist if the operation holds a medical necessity, like reconstruction operations post-mastectomy or injury. It's always advantageous to liaise with your insurance provider to grasp the specific details of your coverage and to ascertain the possible out-of-pocket expenses you could face.
What does a Fat Transfer Procedure Involve?
Consisting of two completely different procedures, extraction of fat called liposuction and transfer of fat through injections. Both the donor and recipient sites are sedated by giving local anesthesia. After this, fat is harvested through injections from the sites where adipocytes are tightly packed, such as the buttocks or abdomen. However, the fat present in lateral sides of the thighs and lower abdomen is also good fat as it contains a larger concentration of adipose-derived stem cells. These stem cells promote angiogenesis and adipogenesis at the recipient site - multiple injections are used to do this.
The material extracted is centrifuged, sedimented and filtered for excessive liquid and pure fat cells are injected just below the skin. This is the most difficult step of fat transfer to inject fat evenly in different layers of recipient tissue. Cannulas and syringes of different sizes are used to do this. In the case of breast augmentation, multiple fat injections are applied to the breasts. It is ensured that these fat cells are injected near a blood vessel so the cells don't die due to a lack of nutrition. Proper nutrition is needed for the cells to survive and grow.
What are the types of Fat Transfer?
Facial fat transfer: If you have facial creases, such as laugh lines, smile lines, and crow’s-feet, fat can be removed from your abdomen, thighs, or other areas and be injected into your face. Acne scars and sunken areas of the face, lips, and cheeks can also be filled in. Your plastic surgeon can even use grafted fat to minimize lines between your nose and mouth, correct skin depressions or indentations and minimize forehead wrinkles. (Facelift, Lip Augmentation)
Breast augmentation: Fat transfer breast augmentation essentially uses liposuction to take fat from other parts of your body and inject it into your breasts. This is a breast augmentation option for women who are looking for a relatively small increase in breast size and would prefer natural results.
Breast implants plus fat grafting: If your breast shape needs optimizing during a breast implant procedure, fat grafting can be useful. If you have residual breast irregularities after undergoing breast augmentation with implants, the irregularities can be filled in with fat to produce a smooth contour and an optimal shape.
Breast reconstruction with fat grafting: If you have breast defects following lumpectomy for breast cancer, fat grafting is an effective method for filling in these defects. Fat grafting is also an option for total breast reconstruction following mastectomy; however, to achieve sufficient breast volume, this is usually a multistage process that requires at least two to four sequential fat grafting procedures.
Buttock augmentation with fat grafting: Many people who desire a fuller, more rounded buttock will opt for a “Brazilian butt lift” which uses fat transfer to provide a more curvaceous buttock without the use of an implant. Liposuction is commonly used to both sculpt the surrounding area and collect the autologous fat to be injected.
Hand rejuvenation with fat grafting: Fat grafting into your hands is effective for adding volume, “plumping up” wrinkled areas, covering underlying vessels and tendons and improving the quality of your skin over time.
How Long Should I Stay in United States for a Fat Transfer Procedure?
As an outpatient procedure, just a couple of hours are needed depending upon the amount of fat that is to be removed and transferred. You can leave the hospital on the same day or sometimes an overnight stay is advised, and in some cases, more than one session is needed. You should stay in United States for at least 10-14 days after being discharged for regular check-ups. During this period, your health and results of the procedure are monitored by your surgeon.
The precise duration of your visit will primarily hinge on your personal situation, including the scope of your surgery, your total health condition, and your body's healing capability. It is always wise to engage in open dialogue with your surgeon about the anticipated period of your stay.
What's the Recovery Time for Fat Transfer Procedures in United States?
The recovery period is different for different areas of your body. After a buttock augmentation, you have to sleep on your stomach or keep standing for at least 4 weeks. Because sitting can dissipate the fat. The shape of the augmented area might appear irregular initially, it will get a proper contour after some time. There will be moderate swelling and bruising at both the donor and the recipient sites for 2 weeks. Your face might appear fat and plump after fat grafting but it will settle down before long. You might suffer from moderate pain for a few days. Pain killers are given to deal with this. Almost 6 months are required for the results to fully show.
What sort of Aftercare is Required for Fat Transfer Procedures in United States?
Things to consider:
- Regular checkups after being discharged.
- Take your medicines regularly, as and when prescribed by the doctor. Avoid self-medication.
- Follow a healthy diet plan for a better recovery.
- Ensure the presence of a friend or family member with you in the early few days to help you with house chores.
- Avoid excessive movement during the early few weeks and do not sit on your butts in case of butt fat transfer because it can dissipate the fat rendering it ineffective.
- Look for the signs of blood clot formation, excessive bruising, etc. Visit your doctor immediately if you find any abnormal thing.
What's the Success Rate of Fat Transfer Procedures in United States?
When exploring any health-related process, the success ratio becomes a key element to consider. The efficiency of the Fat Transfer in United States hinges upon various aspects such as proficiency and expertise of the surgeon, the health condition of the individual, and compliance to the guidelines of care after the operation. Fat transfer has been gaining fame due to its dual advantage of eliminating unnecessary fat from the body and accentuating preferred areas.
The outcomes of Fat Transfer show promising persistency. Many people have enjoyed pleasing results that lasted for a long span of time. Fat transfer for breast augmentation has increased by 76% in 2016 while for butt augmentation, a 26% increase has been witnessed. This approach also enjoys a commendable success ratio when it comes to patient satisfaction, with some researches revealing satisfaction percentages reaching up to 85%. It's however crucial to hold realistic anticipations, since factors like age, weight changes, and general health can sway the results. Regular consultations with your health provider are crucial for monitoring improvements and promptly dealing with any arising issues.
Are there Alternatives to Fat Transfer Procedures in United States?
Fat grafting is an expensive technique as it consists of 2 different procedures. Following are some alternatives to it:
- Dermal fillers: these are given through injections to make your skin look plump. Sunken cheeks can be effectively corrected through this technique.
- Breast implants: for small breasts, implants are an alternative to fat grafting. A silicone implant is inserted into your breasts to increase their size.
- Breast reconstruction: cancer patients, who went through mastectomy can get their bust back by reconstructive surgery.
- Tummy tuck: This procedure tightens your abdominal muscles giving them a tighter and flattened appearance.
- Liposuction: excessive fat is removed from different parts of your body through liposuction. Your tummy looks flatter and you look smarter after this procedure.
- Cheek augmentation: in this technique, silicone implants are inserted into your cheeks to make them look bigger and plump.
All of the techniques mentioned above involve only one procedure.
What Should You Expect Before and After the Procedure
Understanding the process before and after undergoing the Fat Transfer is crucial to easing worries and ensuring a successful outcome. Before the process, your doctor will provide in-depth guidance on the requisite preparations. This might involve abstaining from certain drugs or supplements that may increase bleeding, and possibly, fasting if general anesthesia is planned. Thorough medical check-up and health evaluation will be performed to lower any prospective risks. In particular instances, your doctor may advocate lifestyle alterations such as quitting smoking because it can hinder the recovery process.
Following the Fat Transfer, patients might have minor swelling and bruising, but these usually recede in a few weeks. Aches and discomfort can be effectively controlled with prescribed medicine. Though recovery time varies among individuals, most return to work and resume everyday activities within one to two weeks. Your doctor will provide detailed instructions for a post-procedure care routine, possibly involving wearing pressure garments and regular review meetings to track healing and progress.
What are Potential Risks of Fat Transfer?
Possible complications can include:
- Blood clot formation, infections, and ulmonary embolism leading to the failure of fat grafting
- Absorption of the transferred fat by the body leading to asymmetry or irregularities in the treated area
- The formation of oil cysts or calcification which can interfere with radiological imaging
Whilst the information presented here has been accurately sourced and verified by a medical professional for its accuracy, it is still advised to consult with your doctor before pursuing a medical treatment at one of the listed medical providers
