Fat: The Future of Natural Beauty - with Fat Grafting
Implants and artificial injectables and fillers are so 2010. Savvy patients are using their own fat as the natural way to rejuvenate their appearance. You too, can achieve long-lasting, natural-looking result with the power of fat grafting, made possible with fat banking by Tissue & Cell Technologies (T&CT).
Why Fat is a Game-Changer
- 100% Natural: No artificial substances or chemicals.
- Long-Lasting or Permanent: Many patients enjoy results that last years, even a lifetime.
- True Rejuvenation: Skin appears younger, fuller, and firmer, thanks to your own stem cells.
- Versatile: Fat can be used to enhance your face, lips, breasts, buttocks, and more.
- Reduced Pain, Faster Recovery: Compared to other procedures.
Drawbacks of Breast Implants:

Breast implants, while offering the potential for enhanced breast size and shape, also come with a variety of drawbacks and risks that should be carefully considered before making a decision.
- Surgical complications: : Like any surgery, breast implant procedures carry risks such as infection, bleeding, anesthesia reactions, and scarring.
- Capsular contracture: : This occurs when scar tissue around the implant tightens, causing pain, hardening, and distortion of the breast shape.
- Implant rupture or leakage: Implants can rupture or leak, leading to discomfort, asymmetry, and the need for additional surgery.
- Changes in sensation: Breast implant surgery can cause changes in nipple or breast sensation, including numbness or hypersensitivity.
- Need for future surgeries: Breast implants are not built to last a lifetime and may need to be replaced or removed in the future, which can involve additional surgeries, risk, and cost.
- Interference with mammography: Breast implants can make it more difficult to detect breast cancer on mammography, potentially delaying diagnosis and treatment.
- Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL): Though very rare, BIA-ALCL is a type of cancer that can develop in the scar tissue (capsule) around breast implants.
- Systemic Symptoms of Breast Implants (SSBI): Some percentage of women report experiencing various systemic symptoms like fatigue, joint pain, and cognitive difficulties after getting breast implants, although the link is still being investigated.
The Benefits of Fat Banking for natural Breast Augmentation:

- One-Time Liposuction: Store all the fat you'll ever need in a single liposuction procedure, minimizing risks, discomfort, and downtime.
- Cost-Effective: Avoid the recurring costs and downtime of multiple surgeries. Most surgeons perform the fat transfer under a local anesthetic.
- Build Over Time for Better Results: Being able to “order up” your fat as needed, means you can have multiple “serial” fat transfers to your breasts, in a time frame that allows for healthy integration of the newly transplanted fat with the surrounding blood supply. Better chance of fat survival means you will be happier with your overall result. Feel confident knowing your surgeon can use your own tissue in the safest manner (smaller injections and touch-ups over time) to build the beautiful shape you’re looking for
- 100% All Natural Alternative, for Life: Using your own fat instead of implants means it’s 100% YOU. Plus and your fat doesn’t need to be switched out every 10 years. It’s yours forever.
FAT BANKING FOR TRANSFER TO THE BUTTOCKS AND BODY *(BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT “BBL”)

Drawbacks of One-Session (Traditional) Fat Transfers for BBL and Body Fat Grafting (without the use of fat banking):
Brazilian butt lifts (BBLs), while popular, can carry significant risks. Without the use of T&CT’s fat banking solution, surgeons will perform liposuction to harvest the fat and transfer it to its new home (buttocks, hips, etc.).
Each fat grafting procedure involves liposuction, anesthesia, and recovery time. You are also relying on the surgeon’s skill. Standards for this procedure are not uniform across countries, and some surgeons can “push the envelope” in trying to give a big result in just one session. The biggest risk this carries is a fat embolism .

The biggest risk this carries is a fat embolism .
Fat Embolism:
- If fat is injected into the muscle layer instead of the fat that lies just above the muscle, things can go very wrong. The muscle in the buttock has large veins that communicate with the vena cava (which leads to the heart). The primary concern is if fat enters the bloodstream and can travels to the heart, lungs, or brain, it could potentially lead to death.

Other risks without fat banking include:
- Infection: Any surgical procedure carries a risk of infection, but when you’re having several liposuction (harvesting) sessions, your risk multiplies
- Bleeding: Excessive bleeding can occur during or after the procedure
- Nerve damage: Nerves in the buttocks can be injured during surgery, leading to numbness or pain
- Scarring: Scars will be present at the incision sites
- Asymmetry: Uneven fat distribution can result in an asymmetrical appearance
- Over-filling: Without fat banking, surgeons have to resist the temptation to overfill to “make up” for the fat they know will die off due to not enough blood supply
- Fat necrosis: Fat cells may die, leading to lumps, oil cysts, or hard clumps of scar tissue
- Contour irregularities: The final shape may not be smooth or even when some percent of the fat may die off
We believe that using your own fat using one harvest, fat banking, and multiple fat transfers over time can give you the shape of your dreams, with less risk and it’s 100% you.
The Benefits of Stored Fat for BBL:
- One-Time Liposuction: Store all the fat you'll ever need in a single procedure, minimizing risks, discomfort and downtime.
- Build Better, Over Time, for Better Results: You have access to your fat as you and your surgeon need it. This allows for for multiple “serial” fat transfers to your buttocks, in a time frame that allows for healthy integration of the newly transplanted fat with the surrounding blood supply.
- Cost-Effective: Avoid the recurring costs and downtime of multiple surgeries
- Peace of Mind: Feel confident knowing your surgeon can use your own tissue in the safest manner (smaller injections and touch ups over time) to build the shape you’re looking for
FAT BANKING AS AN ALTERNATIVE
TO INJECTABLE FILLERS

Drawbacks of Traditional Fillers:
- Temporary: Fillers are costly and don’t last, leading to high costs and inconvenience.
- Risks: Side effects, pain, scarring, and reliance on the surgeon's skill.
- Multiple Surgeries: Each fat grafting procedure involves liposuction, anesthesia, and recovery time.
