Fat and its applications are now a new tool for plastic surgeons, enabling them to correct various concerns. Fat grafting is a relatively straightforward procedure that requires local anesthesia or sedation, and patients can return home immediately after.
During the procedure, the plastic surgeon harvests fat using a blunt cannula from areas of the body where there is excess. The fat is then washed and centrifuged, and after specific processing, it can be transferred to any area of the face using small, specialized cannulas.
Today, fat is used to correct volume deficits, enhance features, soften deep folds, and achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation with the aim of highlighting natural beauty.
Fat, as a method, does not replace hyaluronic acid, as it is injected into deeper layers of the skin. On the contrary, both can be safely used in combination to correct significant problems and address minor imperfections.
Facial fat grafting is now a very common aesthetic procedure with remarkable results, and patients who undergo it typically express a high degree of satisfaction, often choosing to repeat it over time.
