How Facial Fat Grafting Works

The technique of Fat grafting to the face also known as fat injection has improved over the years so that it has now become a common procedure with pleasing and long lasting results. It is done to balance facial proportions and treat facial fat loss which is a sign of aging. Fat grafting can also be used to enhance lip size and correct deep folds on the face. The fat is harvested from the tummy or hip area using special instruments. The harvested fat is refined and purified so that only the fat cells with the best potential for graft survival are used.

FAQs about Facial Fat Grafting

What is facial fat grafting?
Facial fat grafting, also known as fat transfer, is a cosmetic procedure that uses your own purified fat to restore lost facial volume, enhance contours, and create a smoother, more youthful appearance. Fat is typically harvested from areas such as the abdomen or thighs before being carefully injected into targeted facial regions.
How long does facial fat grafting last?
Results from facial fat grafting are long-lasting, with many patients enjoying improved facial fullness for several years. Because the transferred fat integrates with your natural tissues, some of it becomes permanent, though a small portion may be reabsorbed by the body over time.
What areas of the face can benefit from fat grafting?
Facial fat grafting can enhance various areas, including the cheeks, temples, under-eye hollows, lips, and jawline. It can also soften deep folds or scars, providing a natural, balanced rejuvenation without the use of synthetic fillers.
