Fat Grafting ( Fat Transfer )
At Rosenberg Plastic Surgery, we provide custom-developed fat grafting treatments to achieve your aesthetic goals. Fat grafting is also called facial fat rejuvenation and is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that transfers fat between two areas of the body. Fat grafting is effective as a facial rejuvenation treatment. A portion of the fat is transferred to the facial area from another body region. The safest and most common procedure is performed using injectables.
The advantages of this treatment include:
- Reduces adverse allergic reactions
- Minimal scars
- No downtime or recovery
- Fuller, softer cheeks
- Volumizes the lips
- Tightens the skin
- An awake appearance beneath the eyes
- Defines the silhouette
- Enhanced facial profile
- Reduces fat cells
The Treatment
A customized fat grafting surgery can enhance your facial profile. There are three standard steps for the fat grafting procedure. First, the fat is removed from another area of the body, such as the hips, buttocks, or abdomen, using water-assisted liposuction. Then the fat is prepared for reinjection. Dr. Rosenberg uses an advanced technique, and it’s completed quickly. Lastly, the fat is injected into the face to improve the facial contours, enhance the volume, diminish wrinkles, or augment the area. Most patients can have fat transfer to the breasts or extremities.
