lipoinjection
Generally, fat is collected from the belly and butt (immobile areas) with a low-pressure injector and injected into the transplant area under local anesthesia (general anesthesia is applied if the application area is large). Lipoinjection can be completed in a short time and patients are discharged a couple of hours later to rest at home. Patients can go back to their daily lives 3 days after the surgery, but they should avoid heavy activities. There can be swelling and bruises after the operation and these will go back to normal in 10 days. The difference will be visible 1 month after the lipo injection operation. Permanent results can be observed 6 months after the surgery. After permanent results, patients will feel better psychologically and socially and patients will no longer experience self-confidence problems.
Is lipoinjection permanent?
The permanence of lipo injection depends on various factors. Fat cell collection technique, injection region, and fat collection region are the factors that affect the permanence of the operation. Also, mobility of the application area is another factor that affects permanence. While this operation is relatively more permanent in immobile regions, it is not possible to achieve high permanence in mobile regions like lips. 40% of injected fats are permanent in 6 months. Fat cells that exist after 6 months are permanent.
