The best quality fat is generally harvested from the abdomen, thighs, or flanks. However, previous surgical interventions in these sites, such as a tummy tuck or liposuction, will preclude harvesting the fat from these areas. In such cases, harvesting can be accomplished from the flanks, knees, or buttocks, although the fat is of lesser quality. The surgeon may also choose the fat-harvesting site based on the patient&#8217;s figure, selecting areas that would improve with the sculpting effect of the harvesting (meaning improvement in contour). It is important to note, though, that in most cases, the amount of harvested fat is too little to make a significant difference in the patient&#8217;s figure. The ideal location is preferably in areas resistant to exercise and diet modifications, such as women&#8217;s outer thigh and abdomen and men&#8217;s flanks. Individuals with minimal subcutaneous fat require harvesting from multiple sites.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a152cb9 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a152cb9\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d364dd1\" data-id=\"d364dd1\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4a0f1c7 textcenter elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4a0f1c7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Marking the patient for facial fat transfer<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-03c0193 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"03c0193\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d20fed3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d20fed3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The patient is marked in the preoperative area while in the upright position.
