Fat transfer, also known as fat grafting, is a versatile procedure that uses your body’s own extracted fat in order to add or restore volume to various regions of the face.
Since the fat is derived naturally from your own body, it can be safely injected virtually anywhere. This enables fat transfer to be paired with a wide range of other procedures, including facelifts, blepharoplasty, hand rejuvenation, and more. The fat utilized during the procedure can also carry stem cells and natural growth factors, which have been shown to improve skin texture and appearance. Fat grafting is typically a longer-lasting method of volume restoration than non-surgical options such as facial fillers, capable of providing rejuvenation for many years without the need for touch-ups.
