A British Mathematician “Alfred North Whitehead” once said: “Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern”. With this I would like to recognize Dr Kottis’ immense talent driven by his extensive experience and thank him for his courtesy and professionalism. You are a wonderful Plastic Surgeon, but above all else, a terrific human being. Thanks again for the excellent care.

What is
Fat Grafting (Lipofilling)?
Fat grafting (lipofilling) in Dubai uses autologous fat to restore volume in the face, breast, or selected body areas. Dr. Bouraoui Kotti, EBOPRAS-certified Consultant Plastic Surgeon, plans each transfer individually. For buttock-focused enhancement, see the dedicated Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) page. Surgical procedures carry risks. Results vary per individual. A consultation is required.
Areas Treated: Face, Breast & Body
- Face — cheeks, tear troughs, temples, nasolabial folds, and lip volume refinement
- Breast — modest natural augmentation or symmetry correction when fat stores allow
- Body — selected contour refinements; dedicated gluteal enhancement is covered on the BBL page
Nano Fat vs. Micro Fat Grafting
| Approach | Typical use |
|---|---|
| Micro fat | Structural volume restoration in face, breast, or body |
| Nano fat | Finer surface refinement and skin-quality support in selected facial zones |
Technique selection depends on anatomy and goals assessed during consultation.
For a decision-focused comparison with dermal fillers and implants, read the fat grafting versus fillers guide.
Recovery Timeline
- Days 1–7 — swelling and bruising at donor and recipient sites; compression as advised
- Weeks 2–3 — return to light activity for many patients
- Months 3–6 — grafted volume settles as swelling resolves
Cost in Dubai
The cost depends on the surgical technique required, the complexity of the individual case, anaesthesia, facility standards, and whether procedures are combined. An accurate assessment requires an individual clinical evaluation.
Risks & Safety Considerations
Risks can include infection, fat necrosis, asymmetry, and incomplete graft take. Surgical procedures carry risks. Results vary per individual. A consultation is required.
