Edmonton, AB -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/10/2015 -- Auto-Augmentation is also known as fat transfer or fat grafting and it is a cosmetic surgery procedure in which the patient's own unwanted body fat is removed by liposuction, processed and then used to augment (fill) other areas of the body such as in the face or breasts or buttocks. It is increasing in popularity as it becomes an acceptable and successful alternative to using injectable fillers in the face or using implants in the breasts or buttocks. It is explained this week (07Sep15) on Inside Cosmetic Surgery Today on webtalkradio.net when show host, Edmonton Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr Barry Lycka talks with popular repeat guest, Dr Adam Schaffner, triple Board Certified Plastic Surgeon from his practice in Park Avenue, New York City.

In this in-depth interview, Dr Lycka & Dr Schaffner begin with a discussion on what is Auto-Augmentation and what are the benefits to patients over fillers and implants. They talk about how the procedure has developed over the years and they also describe the latest techniques used. The two doctors highlight the importance of consulting with a physician who is an expert in these techniques, and discuss a number of important aspects to consider when auto-augmentation is used, including how crucial it is that patients accurately follow their aftercare regime.
