The fat is typically harvested from areas where there's excess fat, such as the abdomen, thighs, or hips.

A thin tube (cannula) is used to remove fat from the donor area, similar to liposuction.

The harvested fat is processed to remove excess fluid and any remaining blood or debris.

Small amounts of the prepared fat are injected into the target area using a fine needle.

The procedure time can vary depending on the extent of the transfer and the areas being treated.

It can range from a few hours for smaller transfers to several hours for larger procedures.

Recovery time varies, but most patients can return to normal activities within a few days to two weeks.

It takes several months for the final results to be visible as the transferred fat integrates and the swelling subsides.

Results from fat transfer are generally considered permanent for the fat cells that survive the procedure.

However, maintaining a stable weight after the procedure is important to preserve the results.

Fat transfer can be a good option for men who are generally healthy, have a stable weight, and are seeking to improve their appearance by enhancing volume or contour.

It's important to have realistic expectations and discuss your goals with a qualified surgeon.
