What is different about Dr. Roberts technique that makes the results last so long?
First he collects the fat by delicate liposuction with a special cannula (tiny collecting tube) that takes just the ideal sized tiny fat particles, which have the greatest chance of living. Second, he collects these tiny fat particles using a very low vacuum, which is a slow meticulous procedure – but this protects the fat cells to make sure that they survive. (In the past, doctors tried using regular liposuction machines to collect fat, but the vacuum on these machines is so high it literally explodes and boils the fat cells – no wonder they did not survive!)Third, Dr. Roberts uses one or two tiny (1/8″) incisions, then carefully puts only minute droplets of fat in hundreds of different levels throughout the desired area of the buttocks. This gives a very natural shape and feel to the buttocks, but more importantly by putting only tiny amounts in each tunnel, this ensures that every particle of fat cells has healthy tissue around it to give it a good blood supply.
