Intervention

The gluteal lipoinjection procedure can be explained in three steps:

1. It begins with liposuction to extract accumulated fat in certain areas of the patient, which could be the abdomen, back, hips, thighs, you can even extract it from the jowls. This extraction for lipotransfer purposes is done in small amounts to cause the least possible damage to the fat cells. These fat cells are extracted with a special cannula to limit the damage to the fat cells.
2. Isolation of fat cells. Once the right amount of fat has been removed, it is spun at a very high speed in a centrifuge to separate the fat cells from the liquid that is also extracted during liposuction. In this process also damaged fat cells are removed. For fat transfer, only whole fat cells are used, which are not damaged and are clean.
3. The fat transfer process is completed when it is injected into the specific place or places to achieve the desired volume and shape. At this point, Dr. Franklin Peña has already identified the place for each injection. With a hypodermic syringe, it will inject the fat cells to the depth needed to achieve the results of the desired transfer.
