Post Well Does It Work?

Well that is controversial and averages differ from surgeon to surgeon. It has been argued by some surgeons that it does not, in fact work, although time and time again there are patients who rave of facial rejuvenation or augmentation through autologous fact grafting. Bottom line, if performed correctly - yes, it can last quite a long time. However, there are many variables:

*

fat cell removal techniques
*

handling techniques after removal
*

spinning/emulsions/serums/etc.
*

re-implantation techniques
*

patient's metabolism
*

patient aftercare of treatment area
*

vascularity (blood vessel formation to the fat cell)
*

hyperbaric oxygen therapy treatments (HBOT)
