Facial fat grafting surgery is becoming increasingly popular. The common areas of volume loss are tear troughs, nasolabial folds, frontal and side cheeks. You will gain youthfulness and a healthy appearance with fat grafting.

Facial fat can now be easily restored thanks to the fat cells harvested from one’s body and can perfectly match facial fat cells that were lost due to the aging process. 

During the procedure fat cells are taken from the thigh area. The fat from the thigh area is harvested with the help of liposuction. After a special preparation, the fat cells are injected into the areas with a facial volume loss.

You shouldn’t worry about the scars on your face since the fat will be injected with a thin cannula. One of the advantages of fat grafting is that the stem cells are also transferred to the facial area which has a rejuvenation effect and improves skin quality.

You will immediately see the effect of the fat grafting. However, there will be slight swelling and bruising for 1 week. The fat graft survival rate from the first session may be 50% or more.

This means that multiple sessions are required. It is advised to get the next procedure 3-6 months after the first session.
