Fat transfer, or autologous fat grafting, is a cutting-edge approach to facial rejuvenation. This minimally invasive technique involves extracting fat from areas like the abdomen or thighs, purifying it, and strategically injecting it into regions of the face that need enhanced volume or contour.
Benefits of Fat Transfer:
- Natural Results: Uses your body’s tissue for a seamless look.
- Long-Lasting Effects: Unlike fillers, results can last several years.
- Dual Benefits: Combines fat removal with facial rejuvenation.
Common Applications:
- Smoothing nasolabial folds
- Filling sunken cheeks
- Enhancing lip volume
- Improving scars or asymmetry
Recovery Process:
Expect mild swelling and bruising, which subside in about two weeks. Results become evident as swelling reduces, revealing a rejuvenated appearance.
This natural and durable option is increasingly favored over synthetic fillers for its effectiveness and versatility in creating a youthful, balanced look.
