Facial Fat Grafting

Facial fat grafting can be an incredibly powerful tool when it comes to rejuvenating the appearance and reducing signs of aging. Still, you might be wondering why you should consider fat grafting over other options when it comes to facial rejuvenation. Below, we’ll explore the unique benefits of facial fat grafting and the things you need to consider before pursuing this treatment.

Sculpt Two Areas at Once

Unlike other facial rejuvenation techniques, fat grafting begins with the collection of fat cells from other areas of the body. Typically, areas such as the legs, hips, or abdomen are targeted for this process. For many patients, this means they get to enjoy the benefit of enhancing the contours of the body in addition to the facial rejuvenation benefits of fat grafting.

Natural & Long-Lasting Results

Fat grafting places natural body fat in the face to produce results that look and feel entirely natural. Since your skin volume is supplemented with natural fat instead of a formulated gel, it is a much safer and more natural alternative to other injectables. Plus, formulated gels break down much faster than natural body fat, so the results you achieve will last for many years longer.

What is the Facial Fat Grafting Treatment Like?

The facial fat grafting treatment begins with the application of local anesthetic to ensure your safety and comfort during the procedure. Then, liposuction techniques will be used to remove fat cells from the desired area. Next, the fat cells are treated so that they can be injected into the skin. Once this process is complete, the fat will be injected into the face to produce the desired results. After treatment, patients can expect some minor swelling and bruising that may last for about a week. Within six months, the fat will have permanently settled into its position, and your full results will be visible.
