Liposuction with fat transfer
Remove fat where it is unwanted and use it to add natural volume and shape where it is needed.
Quick Facts
- Procedure time: 2–4 hours
- Anesthesia: General anesthesia or sedation
- Clinic stay: Same-day or short stay
- Recovery: Around 1–2 weeks before light daily activity
- Exercise: Strenuous activity from about 4–6 weeks
- Final result: Settles over 3–6 months
- Minimum age: From 18 years
What it is
This procedure combines liposuction with fat grafting. Fat is removed from one area, gently purified, and reinjected to add volume or improve contour elsewhere, for example to refine proportions between the waist and other zones.
Because some of the transferred fat is naturally reabsorbed, the surgeon slightly over-corrects and the final volume settles over a few months. More than one session is sometimes needed for the desired result.
What it can improve
- Contour of the donor area through liposuction
- Volume and shape in the recipient area using your own fat
- Overall proportion and balance between zones
It does not provide unlimited volume, does not tighten loose skin, and cannot guarantee that all transferred fat will survive, so results vary between patients.
Before the procedure
You will receive individualized preparation guidance. Donor and recipient areas, expected volume retention, and the possibility of a touch-up session are discussed at consultation.
During the procedure
Fat is harvested with liposuction, prepared, and reinjected in small amounts to build a natural, even contour, with attention to symmetry in both the donor and recipient areas.
After the procedure
Swelling and bruising affect both areas and settle over weeks. A compression garment supports the donor site. The grafted volume reduces slightly as some fat is reabsorbed, and the final shape settles over a few months.
Results: what it can and cannot achieve
Natural-looking volume and improved proportion are achievable. The technique cannot guarantee a precise final volume because fat survival varies, cannot tighten loose skin, and may require more than one session. A stable weight protects the result.
Possible risks and complications
All surgery carries risks. Possible risks include:
- Partial reabsorption of transferred fat and volume loss
- Contour irregularity or asymmetry
- Fat necrosis, lumps, or oil cysts
- Bruising, swelling, and temporary numbness
- Fluid collection (seroma)
- Rare but serious risks including blood clots and fat embolism
Smoking and impaired circulation raise the risk of healing problems and wound complications, so honest assessment and smoking cessation are essential.
Who it suits
This procedure may suit patients who want to refine one area and add volume to another using their own fat. It is especially suitable for patients who:
- Have enough donor fat for harvesting
- Want natural volume rather than implants in the recipient area
- Have good skin quality and realistic expectations about fat survival
- Are at a stable weight
- Do not smoke or can stop before and after surgery
It may not suit very lean patients with little donor fat, those needing large or guaranteed volume, or those with significant skin laxity. Your surgeon assesses suitability at consultation.
Why Skulpturkliniken
Body surgery by Dr. Matteo Amoroso
Body contouring at Skulpturkliniken is performed by Dr. Matteo Amoroso, a specialist plastic and reconstructive surgeon. His reconstructive background gives him a detailed command of anatomy, blood supply, and tissue handling, which is the foundation for safe contouring and natural proportions.
Natural, balanced results
Dr. Amoroso plans every procedure around your proportions rather than maximum change. The aim is a balanced, natural shape that suits your frame and moves naturally, planned with restraint so the result looks like you at your best.
Reconstructive precision meets aesthetic judgment
Choosing a surgeon is personal, and the relationship should rest on open communication and trust. From the first consultation, Dr. Amoroso helps you understand what is realistic, which approach suits you, and whether surgery is the right option at all.
Individualized assessment
Every procedure begins with a detailed assessment. We evaluate:
Areas of concern, fat distribution, and skin quality
Skin laxity and ability to retract
Overall proportions and frame
General health, weight stability, and lifestyle
Your goals and realistic expectations
What Does Surgery Cost?
The costs of treatments are listed in the price section and often don't change. However, the price depends on the extent of the procedure, the technique used, anesthesia, surgical time, and whether additional procedures are combined.
Every operation is individually planned, and the final price is discussed clearly during consultation after Dr. Matteo Amoroso has assessed your anatomy, goals, and surgical needs.
All surgical prices include one of the most extensive, transparent, and safe warranty programs. The price is designed to be comprehensive and includes everything related to the operation, from consultation and surgical planning to the procedure itself, compression garment when applicable, direct access to Dr. Matteo Amoroso and the medical team, and unlimited follow-up controls during the first year.
