Short YouTube video (shorts) by Robert Whitfield MD addressing whether simultaneous fat transfer can be performed during an explant. The speaker states that in his practice the short answer is yes and emphasizes a distinct, rigorous patient-preparation and selection process focused on health optimization (genetic/toxicity/gut testing, food sensitivities, hormonal balance, inflammation markers, and blood labs).
Simultaneous fat transfer with an explant. So let's get into it. I get asked this question routinely, is it possible to do simultaneous fat transfer while you're doing an explant? And the short answer in my practice is yes. Now, we have a much different practice than the majority of plastic surgeons around the United States, around the world, for that matter. So everything in our practice is geared really strictly to towards preparing patients, selecting patients that have been from a health standpoint, people use the words optimized. I don't thoroughly evaluate it using genetic testing, toxicity testing, gut health testing in the form of stool testing, looking at food sensitivities, hormonal balance, other indicators of inflammation, along with blood labs which have become normalized.
