How Is The Procedure Performed ?

Using local anesthesia, your physician will make a tiny puncture through your skin and collect a small amount of fat from either your midsection, "love handles", or buttock .

The fat is processed and concentrated in the Lipogems device using sterile saline solution.

Your physician will use a small needle to inject into treatment site(s).

A compression bandage is applied to the fat collection area.

What Is Your Own Powerful Fat ?

Adipose tissue is the scientific name for fat; it is crucial for your health.

Fat has a high concentration of reparative cells.

There are many different types of cells in your fat that are beneficial for healing including: adipose-derived MSC's, perivascular cells, adipocytes, etc. that are held together in a structural matrix.

These cells work together as a functional unit in order to support the repair, replacement, and reconstruction of damaged or injured tissue

The concentration of these reparative cells in fat stays fairly constant with age.

Fat can provide cushion and support in the treatment area.

What Is The Recovery From The Procedure ?

Individual results and recovery process varies for each patient depending on the area(s) treated and the interventions that are taken.

Your physician will help determine what activities you can perform to put you on an appropriate treatment plan.

Patients should not engage in strenuous activity for at least 1-2 weeks following the procedure if the Lipogems procedure is stand-alone.

Follow post-operative instructions if this is performed with your surgical operation.

You may experience mild to moderate swelling, inflammation, or bruising at the injection site and/or site of the fat collection area for a few days following the procedure.

Contact your healthcare provider if these rare or uncommon side effects occur:

A "ball-like" collection of fluid and/or blood (seroma or hematoma)

Increased pain, swelling, redness, fever, or oozing from the tissue harvest area.
