Fat Transfer to Hands IN LOS ANGELES AND BEVERLY HILLS

As we age, the skin on our hands often becomes thinner. When this happens, veins and tendons can become more visible, giving the hands a more aged appearance. A fat transfer procedure can help restore fullness, giving your hands a smoother, softer appearance. This treatment utilizes fat from your own body, typically extracted from areas such as your belly, thighs, or hips, to restore volume in the hands while gently slimming those donor sites.

What Is Fat Transfer to Hands?

Fat transfer to the hands is a cosmetic treatment that fills in lost volume using your own body fat. The goal is to soften the appearance of prominent veins and tendons, helping the hands look younger and healthier.

The process begins with the removal of a small amount of fat from an area of your body where there is excess, such as the abdomen or thighs. That fat is then cleaned and prepared before being injected into the backs of the hands. The result is a smoother, fuller look that appears more natural because it comes from your own tissue.

What to Expect During Your Fat Transfer Procedure

To help you stay comfortable, local anesthesia is used during the procedure. Fat is then carefully removed from a selected area, such as the stomach, thighs, or buttocks, through a small incision. After fat is removed, it is processed to remove fluids or damaged cells. Using a thin needle, your provider will gently place the purified fat into different areas of your hands. Care is taken to spread the fat evenly for a natural look and feel. The entire treatment usually takes between 15 and 45 minutes. Depending on the amount of fat transferred and your treatment plan.

Recovery and Results

After the procedure, it’s normal to notice some swelling or bruising in the areas where the fat was removed and where it was reinserted. These effects usually fade within a few days. Applying a cold compress can help with any swelling.

To ensure that the fat settles properly, you should avoid putting pressure on your hands during the first part of recovery. Most patients begin to see results immediately, although some of the fat may be reabsorbed by the body over time. Final results often become more noticeable after a few weeks and can last for years with proper care.
