Fat Transfer (≥100cc): Large-Volume Reconstruction After Tissue Loss

Large-volume fat transfer is used when significant contour restoration is required following trauma, cancer surgery, or major tissue loss. These procedures demand meticulous harvesting and grafting techniques.

What It Costs

For fat transfer of 100cc or more, MOH benchmarks indicate:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 5,000 – 8,000
• Anaesthetist: Not typically required
Repeat sessions may be planned to achieve optimal outcomes.

What’s Typically Covered

Coverage depends on indication:
• Reconstructive cases may be reimbursed
• Cosmetic body contouring is usually excluded

Insurance Tip

Document the reconstructive purpose and prior surgery or trauma. Volume alone does not define coverage.

Conclusion

Large-volume reconstruction restores form and confidence. Insurance recognition hinges on medical necessity.
