24 Fat Transfer

Wilfred Brown and Amanda Fazzalari

Summary

Autologous fat grafting has become a routinely utilized technique that is considered safe and effective. It is used for both for augmenting soft-tissue volume and improving contour. This chapter describes the rationale and associated techniques for both employing and optimizing results from this effective procedure.
