Facial Fat Transfer
Overview
Facial fat injection is a cosmetic surgical method aimed at enhancing the volume and contour of the face. In this procedure, fat is harvested from areas of the body with excess fat—such as the abdomen or thighs—and, after processing, is injected into the desired areas of the face. This technique can help increase cheek volume, fill in hollows, and reduce wrinkles, generally resulting in a more youthful and natural appearance. Facial fat injection can provide long-lasting results, though touch-up sessions may be needed to achieve the desired outcome.
