Removing fat from one part of your body and injecting it to another is called fat injection. It is also known by a number of other terms: autologous fat grafting, fat transfer, fat re-injection, microfat grafting, micro-lipoinjection, structural fat grafting, and lipostructure. In Paramus, NJ, Dr. Parker performs all autologous fat injection procedures at Parker Center for his patients from Ridgewood, Hackensack, Mahwah, Somerset, and throughout Bergen County, North New Jersey, and surrounding areas.

Our Experienced surgeon
Dr. Paul M. Parker
Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Paul M. Parker combines an unwavering dedication to patient satisfaction with surgical expertise to create aesthetically pleasing, natural-looking results.
In the body, fat is injected into the buttocks and for correction of liposuction irregularities, chest contouring, hand rejuvenation, and the correction of scars. A fat transfer is also surgical technique Dr. Parker uses during a Brazilian butt lift procedure. Fat grafting has recently been performed by some plastic surgeons in the breasts, but its use in this area remains controversial at this point.

Before & 11 Years After: Fat Injections to the Buttocks*
This patient came to Dr. Parker at age 21 to address an indented scar in her buttocks resulting from a steroid injection. Dr. Parker used liposuction to harvest fat from her hip, transferring a portion to the buttock to minimize the scar. 11 years after surgery, the area continues to look smooth and natural; only a tiny indentation remains, which the patient says is not noticeable under a regular bikini. These are typical results following a fat transfer procedure.

Dr. Parker will often include fat grafting as part of a standard facelift procedure. This allows him to restore youthful volume & help smooth facial contours without over-tightening the skin. Using fat instead of temporary fillers means the patient does not have to return every few months for re-treatment.
