The aging process can bring about a great deal of change to your facial appearance. Over the course of time, you can lose some of the fat in your face, leading to a hollowed and gaunt appearance. This can make you look much older than you would like result in a negative view of yourself and a decrease in confidence.

Fortunately, you don’t have to live with this change to your appearance, because you can restore the volume in your facial region through cosmetic procedures that utilize your own fat for a new and improved look.

Transferring Fat to the Face

Facial fat grafting involves transferring fats from another part of the body to the face. Your doctor will remove fat from the thighs or the abdomen after administering anesthesia. The fat is then purified and prepared for reinjection into the designated area.

The whole process is done carefully to protect the face and to ensure no harm comes to the body. Your doctor will customize the treatment for you to determine where the fat can be transferred from. The facial fat transfer can be done for the cheeks, around the eye area, or for the jawline.

Why it Works?

Fat grafting for the face is an effective means of restoring the skin’s youthful texture and volume. The treatment can help reverse the effects of the aging process and give you the look you have always wanted. You can expect to look more youthful, radiant, and more beautiful overall.

Since the fat injected into your body is sourced from other areas of your body, you don’t have to worry about it being rejected or causing an allergic reaction. The treatment is safe, highly effective, and provides long-lasting results.

Top Reasons to Choose Facial Fat Grafting

Fat grafting for the face is a very popular procedure for many reasons.

• The procedure is minimally invasive and poses very little risks to the body.
• You can expect a short recovery time and results that are quickly visible.
• The treatment involves using one’s own bodily fats for a long-lasting and safe improvement to your facial area.
• Using your own fat to modify your facial features will result in a more natural look.

The injected fat integrates well within the facial tissues and receives a renewed supply of blood. There are no chances of the body rejecting the fat and the effect is a natural glow to the face. There are no serious side effects from the treatment, but you may experience a little swelling due to the injections. This is temporary, however, and should subside quickly.

Preparing for the Procedure

If you are considering a fat transfer procedure for your face, the first step you should take is to talk with an experienced medical professional who has a history of performing the surgery with a great degree of success. Your doctor can guide through the process and design a treatment plan that is suited to your individual needs.
