Areas for fat harvesting in liposuction-based fat transfer

I'm wondering to know specific regions of the body and face are typically targeted for liposuction to harvest fat in a fat transfer procedure, without considering the subsequent utilization of the harvested fat?

What I understand from your question is that you want to know the donor areas from which fat is harvested. Well, the choice of donor sites for fat harvesting will depend on individual anatomy, goals of the procedure and the amount of fat needed for transfer to achieve the desired outcome. The most common areas include the abdomon, thighs, flanks, and buttocks.
