Fat grafting is the most natural way to enhance or restore fullness by using liposuction to remove fat from one area and transfer it to a different area in need of volume.
- Facial Contouring with Fat Grafting Fat grafting can be applied to almost any area where fillers are used, and even places where fillers might not be ideal. This includes the temples, under the eyes, cheeks, nasolabial folds, corners of the mouth, lips, chin, and jawline. The result is a natural-looking foundation, smoother skin, and beautifully contoured features without a single scar.
- Breast Enhancement with Fat Grafting Fat grafting is also effective for the breasts, addressing asymmetry, enhancing upper pole fullness, and improving cleavage. Because fat grafting has living cells and real healing ability, it can be used to improve scars, indentations and irregularities of the breast seen with prior trauma, surgery or genetics.
- Combining Fat Grafting with Other Procedures Fat grafting can be done alone or in combination with other procedures for enhanced results. For the face, it can be paired with facelifts, liposuction under the chin, blepharoplasty (eyelid lift), laser treatments, dermal fillers, neurotoxins and regenerative medical treatments like PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or PRF (platelet-rich fibrin). In breast procedures, it complements implant removal, breast lifts, and corrections of tubular deformities.
Why Use Your Own Fat? One of the biggest advantages of using your own fat is that it’s completely natural—it’s you! Here is why our patients choose fat grafting:
- It removes fat from unwanted areas and transfers it to areas where more volume is desired.
- It has the ability to achieve greater volumes of enhancement compared to facial fillers, which often require multiple syringes to achieve the same effect.
- It offers longevity over fillers, providing lasting, natural results.
- It provides customized tailoring of fat to specific areas of the breast for a more precise contour to fill irregularities, unlike saline or silicone implants, which enlarge the breast in its entirety and not just specific areas.
- It dramatically reshapes the figure by borrowing fat from the waist and tummy and filling in “hip dips.”
