Own fat is the perfect filler — biocompatible, natural, permanent. Dr. Fetai harvests it using the WAL technique (98% cell vitality), processes it and injects it precisely: into the face, breast, buttocks or hands. One procedure, two goals — remove shape where there is too much, add where there is too little.

Instead of an implant: natural buttock shape with your own fat from belly/flanks. Safely subcutaneous per BBL-Safe protocol.
Up to one cup size gain per session possible. Natural feel, correction of asymmetries.
Where hyaluron doesn't last forever, autologous fat stays permanently. Subtle rejuvenation that never gives it away.
Hands give away age first. Autologous fat cushions the tendons, veins protrude less. Effect over years.
"Fat is completely broken down."
70-80% engraft permanently.
"Autologous fat isn't as precise as implant."
It gives a natural feel.
"Slim patients aren't suitable."
Even slim patients have enough donor fat.
"Fat 'migrates' later."
Anatomically impossible.
The 70-80% that engraft last a lifetime.
Usually one session.
For BBL: 2-3 litres donor fat.
Yes. 1 cup size per session.
Depends on donor volume. Transparent consultation.
Autologous fat transfer is the elegant use of your own regeneration tools.
Besides adipocytes, aspirate has a regenerative fraction: stem cells that act as a biological blueprint reset.
Coleman · SVF DiscoveryStudies show: after facial injection elasticity, thickness, pigmentation improve measurably.
Plast Reconstr Surg · Skin QualityAutologous fat is also used in burn medicine and scar treatment.
Scar Regeneration Studies"What I love about autologous fat: it repairs as a bonus. Synthetic fillers can't do this."
Two zones are marked: the donor zone (usually thighs, abdomen, hips) and the recipient zone (buttocks, breast, cheeks, hands). Dr. Fetai plans exact vectors — where each microliter flows.
With WAL technique fat is harvested especially gently — 98 % cell vitality (vs. 60–70 % with classical lipo). The fat is your biological raw material.
Harvested fat is sterilely filtered in-clinic, separated from tumescence and blood. Pure adipocytes + SVF stem cells are ready for injection.
With ultra-fine cannulas fat is injected in micro-bolus technique into the recipient zone — layer by layer, never in one large depot. So every microliter survives by receiving nutrient diffusion immediately from neighbouring tissue.
Donor zone in garment, recipient zone lightly cushioned. For BBL: 4 weeks no direct sitting (only on BBL cushion). After 6 weeks engraftment is complete — 70–80 % of the fat stays for decades.
"The most beautiful filler material is your own body."
