Facial Fat Graft: what to expect before, during and after the procedure

A facial fat graft is a surgical procedure that uses the patient’s own fat to restore natural volume to the cheeks, temples, or under-eye area, improving facial harmony without synthetic fillers.

ABOUT THE PROCEDURE

With age or significant weight loss, the face gradually loses natural fat that supports a youthful, full appearance. This can cause hollow cheeks, sunken temples, or sharper-than-usual facial contours. A facial fat graft addresses this volume loss by harvesting fat from another area of the body, purifying it, and precisely injecting it into selected facial areas to restore natural fullness.Liposuction

The procedure achieves two goals: refining the donor area (such as the abdomen or thighs) and adding natural volume to the face using the patient’s own tissue. No synthetic fillers are used, and the result depends on the quality of the transferred fat and the precision of its placement across different facial layers.Liposuction

• Refines the donor area while enhancing the face simultaneously
• Fat is placed in multiple layers for a harmonious result
