This is how it is done. Facebook will transfer your current profile picture and add all your friends on your list, including your followers as people who like your page. The username for your account becomes the username for your page. Facebook does not permit any change of username when migrating.

You should be aware that no other content is carried over to your new page, so any important information or content hanging on the necks of your personal profile should be saved or downloaded. Just incase you manage a group on facebook, you are advised to have another admin as this will ensure you don’t loose access to such group on facebook.
