Can the fat removed during cool lipo be injected elsewhere?

I am planning to have Cool Lipo at some point in the next few months and want to use some of the fat removed for lip injections and in my cheeks, as well. Do patients do this often and what are the results like? Better than collagen injections?

This is called autologous fat transfer and has fairly good results. The only negative to it is that the transferred fat often does not "take" and the procedure has to be repeated often. Once transferred fat is incorporated into its new location, it is better than collagen, because it will last indefinitely and its your own natural tissue. The results, however, vary from one individual to the next.

There is no comparison, fat is almost permanent. Fat after cool lipo is a
dead fat.

Does Cool Lipo work on upper arm flab? (1 answer)
I have loose skin ("bat wings") on my upper arms and have gone for a few consults. I have no or little fat to remove but require skin tightening and have been getting conflicting opinions on the effectiveness of cool or smart lipo. Am I a candidate?
