What Is A Fat Transfer?

 Fat transfer can be performed to augment the buttock, breast, or aging face. Fat transfer is performed by first harvesting fat through liposuction of areas where the fat is not wanted. This fat is then prepared and transferred with careful technique to an area that is lacking volume. Dr. Lindsey performs fat transfer to the buttocks using an ultrasound for safety, this is commonly referred to as a "Brazilian Butt Lift". Fat transfer can be performed to augment breasts without an implant, or to help improve the results of a breast augmentation with implants. Fat transfer is also performed for rejuvenation of the face, often in conjunction with other surgical procedures such as a facelift or eyelid surgery. Dr. Lindsey Tavakolian uses the most effective methods for performing fat transfers, including ultrasound-guided BBL These body contouring treatments at Lindsey Tavakolian, MD MPH at Southlake Plastic Surgery Center creates gorgeous outcomes.

What Can I Expect After a Fat Transfer?

General anesthesia is used for fat transfer surgery. Often you can go home the same day however each plan is tailored to your needs and you may be required to stay overnight. Liposuction is performed first to extract fat from areas of excess. The fat is then washed and prepared with care. The fat is then transferred with liposuction cannulas into the area where augmentation is desired. 

During an ultrasound-guided BBL, Dr. Tavakolian will begin by performing liposuction on targeted areas of the body and then cleansing the extracted fat. She will then inject the fat using the ultrasound to identify the layer above the deep gluteal fascia where it is safe to inject fat. This is done to avoid the risk of fat emboli previously known to happen during this procedure.  You will require compression garments for several weeks after surgery and will need special support pillows to avoid direct pressure to the buttocks. 

Dr. Lindsey Tavakolian is an incredible artist of a surgeon. She listens carefully, plans your surgery studiously, advises you abundantly, and ultimately molds your body beautifully. She has a true passion for and talent for mommy makeovers. I am forever grateful for what she has provided me - a body with natural curves that demands confidence and that made me feel brand new. After having 3 big babies and breastfeeding them all, I was left with a body that no longer felt my own. Dr. Tavakolian used her careful and practiced hands to craft exactly what I desired. I underwent breast augmentation and flank/abdominal liposuction after in depth explanation of whether or not more surgery could provide a better result. We agreed ‘less is more’ and I am incredibly happy with my result. I have never felt more comfortable in my own skin. If you desire a beautiful and natural appearing outcome, look no further! Thank you so much, Dr. Tavakolian!!

Where do I even start???? This team has been AMAZING! And by saying that I feel like amazing isn’t even good enough!! From the time of my consult to my surgery to my post op care, this team has been absolutely great! Make me feel welcomed, never make me feel any type of way by asking a billion questions!!! Now as far as surgery goes, Dr. Tavakolian and Dr. Heistein did such an amazing job!!! I haven’t been happy with my body in years. I gained so much weight then lost it so had a bunch of extra skin, I was nervous about pain, how people describe it online, but I was up walking straight literally 2 days after surgery! Never experienced pain and the scar? Barely there!!!! It’s low and straight and just looks beautiful!!! Haven’t had any complications and healing great!!!!! I would no doubt recommend them!!! I love this team so much!!!!! And can’t leave Tracy out of this review!!!! She is so sweet and wonderful!!!

Dr. Tavakolian is my favorite surgeon. She thoroughly explains procedure/treatment outcomes and risks. I did the Contour TRL laser in Feb 2025. I was a little nervous about the laser until consulting with her. I knew I was in skilled hands and would have amazing results. I have received numerous compliments on my glowing skin and only use a tinted sunscreen as my foundation. The laser helped with sun damage, fine lines and tightening. It is by far the best ablative laser available. It is important to go to a skilled and cautious surgeon, like Dr. Tavakolian, when doing this treatment.Dr T’s botox and fillers are exceptional. I have had bad experiences in the past. Her individually personalized Botox placement is perfection for someone like me that still likes facial movement and smooth lines. Dr T’s lip filler is the best! You can not tell I have filler from any angle. Just enough to plump/hydrate my mature lips to their original volume. Love my subtle natural looks!
