FACIAL FAT GRAFTING
What is Facial Fat Grafting?
Facial fat grafting, also known as fat transfer or fat injection, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses your body’s own fat to restore lost volume in the face. It is an ideal solution for improving areas affected by aging, weight loss, or hollowing, such as the cheeks, under-eye hollows, temples, or nasolabial folds. By harvesting fat from another area of your body and injecting it into the face, this procedure achieves natural-looking, long-lasting rejuvenation.
Common Areas for Facial Fat Grafting
Cheeks:
Adds volume to sunken or flat cheeks for a fuller, youthful look.
Under-Eye Hollows:
Fills hollow areas beneath the eyes to reduce the appearance of dark circles.
Nasolabial Folds:
Smooths deep lines running from the nose to the corners of the mouth.
Lips:
Enhances lip fullness, creating a plumper and more youthful appearance.
Temples:
Fills hollow areas to create a more balanced facial contour.
