Fat Grafting

Fat grafting helps restore lost volume due to aging by taking a small amount of fat from another area of the body (typically the inner thigh or stomach) and injecting it into a specific area. It’s often combined with other face procedures, such as a facelift or lower eyelid surgery, to comprehensively restore the face.

Fat Loss by Age

As we age, fat and volume loss results in a “sunken” or “tired” look. Unlike dermal fillers, fat grafting offers long-lasting results using natural fat to restore youthful fullness.
