Autologous Fat Transfer - Houston, TX

The Houston Autologous Fat Transfer course is a great addition for expanding your aesthetic practice if you are based in Houston, visiting, or in the surrounding areas.

With Autologous Fat Transfer, we give patients the ability to regain control of their bodies by giving them the choice to improve their appearance without worrying about allergies or secondary effects. By using the patient’s own body fat, practitioners can plump up, sunken, or modify certain areas of the face and body. Work with the abdomen, buttocks, hips, saddle bags, thighs, or jowls to reallocate fat and achieve the desired look. During the course, attendees will also learn to increase or decrease certain creases in the forehead, eyebrows, or work with the hollow area under the eyes, as well as plump up or improve the contour of the nose, the lips, and work the fat that may have been lost around the neck.

Prior to your visit to Houston, you will receive a complete digital resource guide of forms, consents, and protocols with a detailed handout that outlines all the presentation content. Additionally, you will have access to our Members Portal where you will find the full course manual, protocols, reference materials, and other patient intake forms that you can integrate into your professional practice.
