Fat Transfer in Abu Dhabi | Elyzee Hospital

Elyzee Hospital is recognized as one of the best medical centers in Abu Dhabi specializing in fat transfer (fat grafting) and natural body contouring. This advanced aesthetic procedure uses fat from your own body to enhance areas such as the face, breasts, hands, or buttocks — offering natural volume and defined curves without synthetic fillers or implants.

What Is Fat Transfer?

Fat transfer, also known as fat grafting or fat injection, is a cosmetic technique in which excess fat is gently removed (usually from the abdomen, thighs, or hips), purified, and then injected into areas requiring more volume. It is a popular solution for restoring youthful contours, improving symmetry, and enhancing specific features with long-lasting results.

The Benefits of Fat Transfer

  • Enhanced volume & contour: Adds natural fullness to areas such as the face, breasts, or buttocks.
  • Natural-looking results: Uses your own fat — no implants, no synthetic fillers.
  • Dual benefit procedure: Removes unwanted fat through liposuction while enhancing another area.
  • Long-lasting results: A significant portion of transferred fat survives permanently for lasting results.

Who Is the Best Candidate?

The ideal candidate for fat transfer is someone who:

  • Wants to enhance volume naturally without implants or fillers.
  • Has enough donor fat to harvest.
  • Is in good health and maintains a stable weight.
  • Is a non-smoker or willing to stop smoking before and after surgery.

Having adequate fat reserves is important since the success of grafting depends on the availability of viable fat cells.

Consultation & Preparation

During your consultation at Elyzee Hospital, our plastic surgeon will:

  • Evaluate donor and target areas.
  • Discuss your goals and expected outcomes.
  • Explain risks, benefits, and limitations of fat transfer.

Before surgery, you may be asked to:

  • Avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements.
  • Stop smoking to improve healing and fat survival.
  • Complete any required medical tests.
  • Arrange for someone to assist you after the procedure.

How Fat Transfer Is Performed

The fat transfer procedure generally involves three main steps:

  1. Fat harvesting: The surgeon removes fat from donor areas (abdomen, thighs, hips) using gentle liposuction.
  2. Purification: The fat is filtered and separated from fluids and impurities.
  3. Injection & sculpting: The purified fat is strategically injected to enhance volume and contour.

This process requires precision and artistry to ensure smooth, natural-looking results.

Recovery & Aftercare

  • Expect swelling or bruising in both donor and target areas.
  • Avoid pressure on the treated area to allow fat cells to survive.
  • Avoid strenuous exercise for a few weeks.
  • Follow all post-operative instructions to maximize fat survival.

Some of the transferred fat may be absorbed by the body in the first few months — the remaining fat becomes permanent.

Final Result

The outcome of fat transfer is naturally fuller, reshaped contours with a youthful and balanced appearance. The results are long-lasting and can significantly improve confidence and body image when combined with a healthy lifestyle and stable body weight.
