is also known as fat grafting or fat injections and is a body contouring surgical technique that uses liposuction to remove excess fat from one area of the body, which is then purified and into another part of the body. The purpose of fat transfer is to add volume to a particular area that the patient wants to enhance. Some common areas where fat is transferred include the and breasts. This cosmetic surgery is designed to strengthen a patient’s silhouette according to the individual’s wishes.
Fat transfer is one of the most popular body contouring procedures in London and the UK. Fat transfer costs vary from patient to patient. In this article, we will break down the prices of a fat transfer procedure, depending on the type of procedure undertaken.
When performing a fat transfer surgeons will first perform on targeted areas of the body with excess fat and then transfer the collected fat into the areas that the patient wants to be enhanced. Because it is a highly customised procedure, fat transfer prices are determined by the number and size of the area that requires contouring.

Below, we have listed some common areas that patients may wish to enhance through the fat transfer procedure:

Additional fat transfer procedure costs
Liposuction cost will vary depending on the number and size of the areas that you wish to contour. This means your procedure is going to cost more if you want to have liposuction in more than one area.
Is a fat transfer procedure worth it?
Fat transfer is the number one organic method of increasing volume to areas of the body that the patient wants to enhance. This is because it uses the patient’s own fat as opposed to inserting a foreign material. With liposuction, as it is used during the procedure, you can contour several areas of the body to get the figure you are looking for. Additionally, the minimal scarring and the results provided by the procedure are further reasons why many patients consider a fat transfer a option.
As with any other cosmetic surgery, there are pros and cons, and it is worth mentioning some of the main points here.
What are the benefits of fat transfer?
The fat transfer process utilises the patient’s own fat to contour, enhance, and specific areas of the body. This means the procedure does not involve the use of any implant, whether that be silicone or dermal fillers. These foreign material implants can allergic reactions that do not occur with fat transfer. The harvesting and reinjection of the patient’s fat require only minimal incisions. It is because of this that there is minimal scarring. Breast implants, by comparison, require larger incisions. Because the incisions are larger, the scarring is more noticeable.

Following a fat transfer procedure, the body will absorb somewhere between 30% and 50% of the fat after insertion. This means a large portion of the created volume will not last. Your cosmetic surgeon, however, will plan for this volume loss and inject more than required to achieve your ideal shape and size. Despite accommodating in this way, the results are less reliable than implants and harder to predict. It may take a second to achieve the desired results.
Fat transfer can only enhance a person’s shape to a certain degree and is limited mainly by the amount of fat available for transfer. For instance, in breast augmentation using fat transfer, the majority of women will an increase of just one cup size. Compare this with implants, and the gains can be much greater. To add more volume and increase cup size, the fat transfer procedure will have to be repeated, if there is enough fat elsewhere on the body.
