FAT TRANSFERS

Fat Transfers

Naples Plastic Surgery

A fat grafting procedure typically transfers fat from areas that already possess an excess of fat. Areas like the abdomen, thighs or buttocks are a good example of an area to graft fat from. The purpose of fat transfers are to remove fat from these areas and transfer it to areas like the face, hands, breast and body. This procedure is considered safe and long-lasting and will produce an exquisite natural-looking outcome.
Fat from your own body reduces the chance of any adverse reaction as opposed to the slightly higher chance of reacting to foreign substances used for similar procedures.

Fat Transfer Procedure Options

Facial Filler – If you suffer from creases or wrinkles in your face like laugh lines, smile lines, crow’s feet or otherwise, fat can be transferred from areas like the abdomen or thighs and injected into areas of the face. Acne scars or areas of the face which have sunken either from age or previous procedures can be filled in as well. Your surgeon is also able to utilize the fat to significantly reduce the lines between the nose and mouth.
Breast Enhancement – Fat transfer can be used to increase breast size by a modest amount. A good candidate for breast augmentation via fat transfer should have a healthy skin tone and good skin elasticity. If you have a lack of skin elasticity or sagging, or if you would like a more significant increase in size, you should consider breast augmentation instead.
Hand Rejuvenation – This type of fat transfer is effective for adding volume to the hands and plumping the wrinkled areas. This will also cover protruding vessels and tendons which will improve the quality of your skin.

Recovering from Fat Transfer Surgery

Patients should speak to their surgeon about how long they should wait until they can resume normal activities after fat transfer surgery. You may swell and bruise to a degree with a significant improvement between seven and ten days.

Dr Gardner is the BEST!

I have been a patient of Dr. Gardners for many years. His ability to relate to his patients is a very calming and caring characteristic. He answers questions with patience and above all, no pressure. The sugeries that I have had, fat augmentation and a neck/chin lift have given me a renewed and fresh look without appearing as if it’s not a totally natural look. I continue to have fillers and Botox by Dr. Gardner and would NEVER consider going to someone else for these procedures.

The staff are incredible! They know their patients by name, interact in a supportive manner and most of all, are very knowledgeable about the procedures and always willing and able to answer questions.

I would very highly recommend Dr. Gardner and his staff.

Simply masterful with a kind soul

Dr. Gardner is simply masterful and a kind soul. He takes great pride in his work and has the experience and expertise to take initiative to achieve the best outcome for patients beyond expectation, often having to adapt to unexpected obstacles from patient history. Experiencing significant pain I went to see Dr. Gardner as a repeat patient, expecting a routine implant revision due to a failure of a fifteen year old reduction procedure. Instead, Dr. Gardner had to remove a significant growth and essentially rebuild the sins of the past into results that realistically were better than had ever presented in my youth, all with minimal incisions and recovery. This is the doctor you seek for exceptional cases and care – you are worth it. He is worthy. Special appreciation to his staff, all of whom genuinely take an interest and embody the values Dr. Gardner brings to the table.

Amazing Transformation and Exceptional Care

I am incredibly thankful to Dr. Walsh for the amazing transformation he’s given me. I had a skin removal tummy tuck with liposuction and Renuvion, and the results have been life-changing. Dr. Walsh’s expertise and attention to detail made me feel confident throughout the process. He listened to my concerns and tailored the procedure to my needs.

The recovery was smooth thanks to his thorough aftercare instructions and the constant support of his team. Dr. Walsh even came into the office the day after surgery, a Saturday, to check on me, which showed his true commitment to me.

I also want to highlight how wonderful and kind the entire office staff is. Everyone was helpful and made me feel comfortable every step of the way.

I highly recommend Dr. Walsh for anyone considering cosmetic surgery. His skill, professionalism, and dedication are truly exceptional.

Beyond helpful and kind

Dr Baccaro and his team went above and beyond for my breast augmentation surgery. From the consultation to every single post op appointment they were beyond helpful and kind.
I had my implants for 10 years and had significant loss in volume and was afraid I needed a lift but Dr Baccaro was able to give me the perfect new pair without a lift and I am beyond happy with the results. Besides that he also fixed my visible scarring that were left behind from the previous surgeon.
His work is beyond excellent and both him and his team are amazing people.

Months later I went in for lip and nose filler and AGAIN I was left speechless with his work. I have never done any filler in my nose and always wanted a nosejob to fix a bump on my bridge and with less than 1ml in both lips and nose he was able to give me the side profile of my dreams.

Thank you Dr Baccaro and the amazing team. I will 10000% recommend you to anyone I meet needing a procedure done and will continue using your services.

Very pleasant to work with

I am very happy with my experience with Naples plastic surgery and will definitely use them again in the future! I had breast implants that were 34 years old and I had them replaced by Dr Walsh. Believe it or not even after all that time one of the implants was still fully intact when he took it out, the other one had begun to show signs of gumminess from age. Everyone from the office staff, to the doctor himself were very pleasant to work with and overall was a great experience here.

Compassionate, kind and caring

Had a consultation with Dr. Walsh this afternoon. From my initial phone call with Jessica, very polite and professional young lady to Ivy and Jocelyn, the staff is great. I found Dr. Walsh to be a good listener and hear my concerns and was compassionate, kind and caring. Highly recommend this practice.

Your Fat Transfer Procedure


Fat is removed from one part of your body and treated so it is purified. It is then professionally injected to the areas in need of augmentation. It is possible, and sometimes recommended, to have fat grafting repeated on certain areas. There are three stages to your fat transfer. Removal, purification, and transfer.
