By | Fat Transfer
Fat transfer may be your solution if you’re looking for a long-term solution to a lack of volume in your body or face areas. But how much does a fat transfer surgery cost? Let’s dive into the details.

What Affects The Cost Of A Fat Transfer?

We would love to give you a straightforward answer about how much fat transfer costs and not just some vague response like, “Well, it all depends on….” But the truth is that it does depend on a few key surgical factors, such as:
  • Where your surgeon will harvest the fat for transfer
  • Where on your body you desire to add volume through the transfer of fat cells
  • How much fat is necessary to accomplish the effect you want 
Other things that influence the cost of fat transfer include:
  • Your surgeon’s experience level and background
  • Whether your procedure is at a surgical facility or a hospital
  • The geographic location of your surgery
  • Additional costs like pre-op and post-op appointments, anesthesia, and post-surgery care supplies

What Types Of Fat Transfer Procedures Can You Choose?

What areas of your body can you have fat transfer surgery? Fat transfer procedures are both body and facial surgeries. Let’s go over some of the areas that you can enhance with this method.

Body

The breasts and buttocks are the two primary areas of the body that surgeons use the fat transfer method.
  • Breasts
A more natural approach to breast augmentation is fat transfer to the breasts. This surgery may be a good option for those who want to add volume to their chest but are worried about the safety of breast implants or how their body may respond to them.
  • Buttocks
A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) adds fat to your buttocks–but in a good way! It creates a rounded, curvy figure by moving fat from your chosen area to the buttocks.

Face

Body fat transfer procedures, including facial fat transfer, are popular. Most patients choose facial fat transfer to enhance their lips or cheeks, though other areas, such as the jaw, can also benefit from fat transfer surgery.
  • Lips
Say goodbye to repeated lip filler injections. With a fat transfer procedure, you can get the full, pouty look you want and results that last.
  • Cheeks
Fat transfer to the cheeks can provide a definition that enhances your entire facial profile. It produces a rounded, contoured look that will be stunning with or without makeup.

What Is The Average Cost Of A Fat Transfer Surgery?

Different areas of the body require different amounts of fat transfer. For instance, if you’re having this procedure for your cheeks or lips, you’ll likely pay less than if you’re having it for your breasts or buttocks (though this isn’t always the case). We’ll list the average cost of fat transfer to these areas to give you a better idea of the potential cost of this long-lasting procedure.
  • Breasts: $9,932 (can cost between $4,378 and $17,500)
  • Buttocks: $6,525 (can cost between $6,000 and $18,000)
  • Lips: $3,000 (can cost between $2,000 and $6,000)
  • Cheeks: $5,000 (can cost between $2,500 and $12,000)

Will A BBL Fix Hip Dips?

By | Body, Fat Transfer, Brazilian Butt Lift
Hip dips are small dips towards the bottom portion of the hips that can interrupt the perfect hip contour. They are a perfectly normal feature of the body, but many patients prefer a smoother hip contour. So, will a BBL fix hip dips?Yes, even though the focus of a BBL—or Brazilian butt lift—is buttock augmentation fat is often transferred into the hips as well to create the perfect body contour. This can help correct hip dips. It also does not take much fat to address the hips dips and it can improve the results of a BBL.Dr. Jonov can also perform only hip dip correction without other areas of fat transfer. However, most of the time, it is advantageous for the patient to undergo another fat transfer procedure at the same time. Dr. Jonov can discuss options for BBL surgery or hip dip fat transfer during a consultation at The Gallery of Cosmetic Surgery.To learn more and schedule a consultation, call us at 425-775-3561.

Are Fillers The Only Lip Augmentation Option?

By | Juvederm®, Injectable Fillers, Fat Transfer, Restylane® SILK
Dermal fillers like Restylane and Juvederm are the most popular way to plump the lips. The filler has few risks or side effects and often looks and feels natural. Lip fillers also have an easy reversal option and patients can choose to not refresh their filler. This makes it one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures.  Are fillers the only lip augmentation option? The short answer is no. There are other surgical and non-surgical options that can enhance the appearance of your lips. Starting with the non-surgical lip enhancements other than fillers, BOTOX injections can be used to bring out more of the upper lip to treat the appearance of thinness. This treatment–known as a BOTOX lip flip–does not usually affect the bottom lip.  Many regular filler patients tire of routine injections and want to find a more permanent lip augmentation option. For these patients, silicone lip implants can sometimes provide lower maintenance lip augmentation. Lip implants require a larger amount of commitment because the removal process is not as seamless as fillers. For some patients who regularly have fillers or who require larger scale corrections, lip implants may be an option that saves money in the long run. Fat transfer to the lips is another surgical option that can last longer than dermal fillers.  To schedule a consultation with Dr. Jonov, call us at 425-775-3561 or contact us online.

The Wide Variety Of Fat Transfer Procedures

By | Liposuction, Fat Transfer, Brazilian Butt Lift
Fat transfer procedures have revolutionized the cosmetic surgery industry in recent years. While cosmetic surgeons have used fat transfer for over a hundred years to correct major scars and disfigurements, usually from wartime injuries, fat grafting has continued to see advancements as fat harvesting saw improvements. Today, fat grafting, liposuction, and subsequent transfer have become among the most popular body contouring procedures. Firstly, like the original uses of the procedure, facial fat transfer can fill in facial hollows, correct acne scarring, and address other facial scarring. Normally, the fat is injected through a small cannula. This can rejuvenate the face for a younger appearance and for reconstructive purposes.As liposuction saw advancements, fat transfer procedures did also. Fat transfer to the breasts and Brazilian butt lifts are among two of the most popular procedures. During these procedures, Dr. Jonov  harvests fat from one site of the body, often the abdomen or thighs. Then, he transfers it via injection into the butt or breasts. Fat can also be used as a filler, adding volume to targeted areas. Sometimes fat harvesting can happen on a smaller scale to fill in the tear troughs, augment the lips, or as cheek filler. There are many options for your fat transfer in Bellevue. To schedule a consultation with Dr. Jonov at The Gallery of Cosmetic Surgery, call us at 425-775-3561 or contact us online.

By | PSA, SmartLipo, Body, Liposuction, Fat Transfer
Liposuction is one of the most well-known fat removal procedures in cosmetic surgery. With little to no scarring and usually permanent results, liposuction is a procedure that can help you achieve a slimmer, more contoured body. Due to this, it is a common misconception that liposuction can simply suck away excess fat and help you lose weight. This is untrue. The procedure is designed to remove diet and exercise-resistant fat deposits around the body. While it is possible to lose a couple pounds after the procedure, this is only true of especially extensive cases. Usually,  removing fat from multiple points. Rarely does liposuction remove more than ten pounds of fat. The best candidates are those who have lost weight in other areas and need help removing stubborn pockets of fat from the areas resistant to diet and exercise. Liposuction is also utilized during various fat transfer procedures like Brazilian butt lifts. Dr. Jonov can determine if liposuction on its own, or in combination with another procedure, could benefit you and your cosmetic goals.
