This procedure is an ideal treatment to plump deeper layers of tissue. It is also a good choice when larger-volume facial filling is required that exceeds the limitations of synthetic injectable fillers. Though over half of the fat is reabsorbed within 6 to 12 months for most patients, a certain portion of the fat cells will remain indefinitely. Repeat treatments can provide additional enhancement.
The fat transfer procedure can be used to:
Another benefit of fat transfer is that the patient’s own tissue is used, which can alleviate concerns about introducing a foreign substance to the body.
To begin the procedure, Dr. Narasimhan removes some of the patient’s own fat tissue from a donor area such as the abdomen or upper portion of the hip via liposuction. Alternatively, he can use some of the excess fat removed during a cosmetic surgery procedure like breast reduction or a tummy tuck. He purifies these fat cells before re‐injecting them into the treatment area. Small amounts of fat can be collected and transferred using only local anesthesia at both the donor and treatment sites, while general anesthesia may be needed if larger volumes of fat are being removed. Some swelling and bruising will likely occur for a few days after treatment, and any discomfort is easily controlled with medication.
Dr. Narasimhan’s passion for plastic surgery is evident in his impressive credentials, which include:

Guest faculty at internationally renowned cosmetic surgery meetings, such as the Dallas Cosmetic Symposium
