Since the cost of cosmetic treatments is often a concern for patients, it is helpful to outline the breakdown of our fat transfer prices. Simply put, the amount of liposuction required for the desired results determines the price of the fat transfer procedure.
This is because the act of removing the fat is the most time-consuming process in the fat transfer procedure. The initial act of removing the fat may take several minutes to hours, whereas the transfer of fat back to the patient takes only a matter of minutes. As such, the cost of fat transfer is most affected by the duration required for fat cell harvest. During your initial consultation for your cosmetic procedure, SurgiSculpt surgeons will spend ample time delineating the areas of desired fat transfer to determine the scope of fat graft harvest required and the volume of excess body fat that must be removed. The average cost of fat transfer is most affected by the duration of surgery, as it will determine the surgical facility’s price.
In summary, we do not charge for fat grafting as part of the fat transfer price; rather, the cost covers the fat removal process. If, for example, your only interest is fat grafting to the face, we can perform the procedure under local anesthesia, thereby eliminating typical anesthesia and operating room fees.
This is only possible due to the fact that fat grafting to the face requires the removal of approximately 10–22 CCs of fat, a very small amount. Conversely, the cost will be higher if you would like a larger area of your body to receive the fat grafting, such as your buttocks.
This is because the buttocks require approximately 1000 CCs of fat per cheek, an amount of fat that takes anywhere from one to a few hours to remove. The fat transfer price is elevated in such cases due to the labor involved.
Additions to Fat Transfer Prices
In addition to removing the fat, we must account for the cost of anesthesia. General anesthesia is more costly than local anesthesia, causing a bump in the overall price when required.
Regardless of the amount of fat removed from the body, putting it back into the desired areas is a simple process and is therefore not accounted for in the overall procedural cost.
In summary, fat transfer prices depend on the volume of fat removed and whether general anesthesia is required. Also, correcting a breast deformity may add to the surgical time and cost.
