Facial Fat Grafting
Facial aging happens at varying rates and in many different ways. It can lead to volume loss in certain areas of the face. The common areas are the cheeks, temples, and even lower face. Out of all these, cheeks are the most significant.

Loss of Facial Fat is a concern for many |
This loss of facial volume can create a notable demarcation between the cheek and the lower eyelid. Often referred to as the "lid-cheek junction," this area is responsible for most of the distinctive changes during the aging process.
The lid-cheek junction becomes more prominent as the cheeks lose
significant volume. Besides, the residual facial volume begins to drift on the
lower part of the face that creates folds as we age. These changes make the
face look more tired and stressed.
There are different ways to correct this loss of volume that occurs
throughout the face. Nowadays, there are a variety of facial rejuvenation
options available - both surgical and non-surgical treatments.
These treatments can replace the expressionless and tight look with a
beautiful and natural-looking face. A very popular procedure is facial fat
grafting. Let's know more about the procedure.
What is Facial
Fat Grafting?
Fat grafting, also known as fat transfer, is an ideal way to increase
facial volume to gain a more rejuvenated and younger appearance. During the
process, fat cells are harvested from one part of your body and transferred
into another. It is usually performed to restore volume in the cheeks or the
mid-face, below the eyes, lips, and chin.

Fat Grafting Before-After |
Where is the Fat Taken From?
Generally, the fat is taken from your own body - from the abdomen,
thighs, or hips. It is performed through a liposuction method. You can also
choose to transfer the fat via stem cell grafting. In this process, the stem
cells from your body are extracted and concentrated, and placed into a spinning
centrifuge. This fat is then injected into the areas of the face to be treated.
The stem cells make fat grafting an ideal filler. Since the process
utilizes your body's fatty tissue that contains an abundant amount of stem cells,
the major benefit is that the self-renewing stem cells transform themselves
into specialized cell types to rejuvenate the skin. Sometimes known as a “stem
cell facelift,” the stem cell facial fat grafting is a more comprehensive
approach to facial rejuvenation.
Other Facial
Rejuvenation Fillers
One of the most popular among women is dermal fillers when it comes to
removing signs of aging and give your face a fuller appearance. Facial fillers
are specially engineered products such as hyaluronic acid, calcium
hydroxylapatite, and collagen that help to eliminate facial wrinkles and lines
and rejuvenate facial skin. Other options are lip, cheek, and chin
augmentation. These are injectable fillers specifically designed to address the
problems of the area to be treated.
The Benefits of
Fat Grafting over Other Facial Fillers
Artificial facial fillers are generally grown and harvested in
pharmaceutical labs. Although these fillers can restore volume to your facial
structures, they have disadvantages too. You would need frequent injections
once these injections are fully absorbed by the body. They are expensive and
may not even give you the desired natural feel and look to your face.
On the contrary, the facial fat grafting technique has several
benefits over artificial facial fillers:
•
Results feel and look more natural
•
Longer lasting results than lab-grown fillers
•
Minimally invasive procedure
•
Fat grafting/transfer is invisible underneath the skin
Am I a Good
Candidate?
If you have begun noticing
facial aging, or you have had a facelift previously and need to undergo another
facial rejuvenating procedure, you can opt for facial fat grafting. Moreover,
the procedure will be customized based on your requirements.
Results &
Recovery
The results and effects of facial fat grafting are very long-lasting –
significantly longer than other artificial facial injectables. Since aging is
an ongoing process, you may or may not require to repeat fat grafting. The
average patient receives 1-2 treatments to achieve the desired results.
Recovery following fat grafting is relatively easy and fast. There may
be some swelling and bruising at the site of the fat transfer, which can be
treated with ice or any over the counter pain reliever. Most patients can move
about and engage in normal activities on the same day of the injections.
