Successful fat grafting depends on careful handling of harvested fat and precise placement during reinjection. The Wells Johnson HVP utilizes a closed-system design that helps minimize external exposure of the harvested fat throughout the procedure.
The system allows controlled pressure and flow during fat transfer, helping surgeons distribute fat accurately according to each patient's treatment plan. It is widely used in both cosmetic and reconstructive fat grafting procedures.

Procedure Details
Fat is first harvested from a donor area using an appropriate liposuction technique. The harvested fat is then processed within the Wells Johnson HVP system before being carefully reinjected into the target area.
The amount of fat transferred and the injection technique are customized according to each patient's anatomy and desired outcome.
Procedure Duration
The duration depends on the treatment area and the volume of fat being transferred. The use of the Wells Johnson HVP system forms part of the overall fat grafting procedure.
