Fat Transfer in Pittsburgh PA
Fat Transfer in Pittsburgh PA
Autologous Fat Transfer (AFT) is a groundbreaking procedure in plastic surgery, offering a dual solution to common aesthetic concerns. As we age and our bodies lose volume, resulting in wrinkles and a sagging appearance, AFT counteracts this by harvesting excess fat and injecting it into areas like the face, hands, breasts, or buttocks. When conducted by a Board Certified Plastic & Reconstructive surgeon like Dr. Theodore Lazzaro, this procedure can remarkably rejuvenate and enhance your natural contours.
AFT transforms unwanted fat from areas like the abdomen into a tool to rejuvenate the face or enhance the breasts and buttocks. AFT also aids in breast reconstruction post-mastectomy and reshaping contours affected by age or pregnancy. Typically lasting one to four hours, this procedure boasts high satisfaction and impressive results. For a rejuvenated appearance, schedule your appointment with Aestique Plastic Surgery in Pittsburgh, PA.
