What is Fat Grafting?

Authentic Volume

Fat grafting is a surgical procedure in which fat is taken from one area of the body to be injected into another. Facial fat grafting allows for increased volume in areas of the face to enhance facial harmony and youthfulness. It is typically applied to areas of the face that have lost volume due to aging.

Fat grafting can also be applied to areas of the body and is an ideal solution for patients seeking optimally natural breast enhancement. Fat grafting to the breasts delivers increased volume as well as the ability to address asymmetry or other shape-related concerns.

What are the benefits of Facial Fat Grafting?

Less Here. More There.

Fat grafting utilizes unwanted fat in isolated areas of the body to restore fullness and rejuvenate the skin’s appearance, tone, and elasticity. It is a minimally invasive procedure that offers little downtime and long-lasting benefits. Because fat grafting utilizes natural fat cells to restore volume, there is minimal risk of complications, and results can last for years (as opposed to months with dermal fillers).

At Mathew Hagan, MD in Idaho Falls Facial fat grafting enhances your facial contours by delivering volume into specific areas, such as the:

Lips
Cheeks
Jawline
Temples
Undereye or Periorbital area

Fat transfer breast augmentation sculpts and fills the breasts to achieve a youthful shape and increased volume. Many patients choose fat transfer due to its ability to produce authentically youthful results. With natural fat and no large incisions, you can rest assured that your breasts will look and feel completely natural. As Fat grafting involves harvesting autologous fat via liposuction, you can also look forward to reduced fat in stubborn areas like the lower abdomen and thighs, making fat grafting a potent combination procedure to sculpt multiple regions of the face and body at one time.

Your Facial Fat Grafting Consultation

Expert Personalization

During your consultation, Dr. Hagan will assess your concerns to determine if Facial Fat Grafting can deliver your ideal experience and results. Together, you will create a detailed treatment plan outlining your goals, the donor area of the body, and where your fat will be injected. If you wish to include any other procedures in your treatment or would like to discuss options related to other concerns, Dr. Hagan will work with you to ensure you achieve the comprehensive outcome you envision. If you have any questions about any aspect of your procedure, Dr. Hagan will be delighted to answer them at this time or at any point during your treatment.

Your Facial Fat Grafting Procedure

Three Easy Steps

Your Facial Fat Grafting procedure will include three distinct steps: harvesting, processing, and injecting fat according to your personalized procedure plan. To begin your procedure, Dr. Hagan will use liposuction to harvest fat from the donor area of your body. While some patients choose to remove minimal fat for their grafting procedure, others maximize their benefits by sculpting targeted areas of their body for smooth, slim contours.

Additional Reading

Following liposuction, the fat that will be used for grafting will be placed in a centrifuge to isolate useful components. This takes just a few minutes to perform. Lastly, Dr. Hagan will inject your processed fat into targeted areas, paying meticulous attention to volume, symmetry, and shape to create naturally youthful contours. Facial Fat Grafting is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure. As soon as your treatment is complete, you will be free to head home.

Facial Fat Grafting Results

Naturally Long-Lasting

While it will take about two weeks for your grafted fat to settle, you will notice continued improvement in the quality of your skin for about three months. With each fat grafting procedure, approximately 60-70% of the transferred fat will remain. Depending on your goals, a series of Fat grafting treatments may be needed to achieve optimal results. However, once healed, fat transfer results are considered permanent.

Facial Fat Grafting Recovery and Aftercare

Let Your Results Take Shape

After your Facial Fat Grafting Idaho Falls patients can expect recovery to generally consist of swelling, bruising, and soreness around the donor and injection sites. These side effects tend to resolve on their own, and most patients are able to resume most normal activities within a week. Patients can expect to be “restaurant ready” within two to four weeks in most cases. Until the grafted fat fully settles, it is important to avoid manipulating or applying pressure to treated areas. Over-the-counter pain medications and applying a cool compress to treated areas can help to alleviate any discomfort, reduce inflammation, and support healing.
