What is fat grafting?
Fat grafting is a cosmetic procedure where your own fat is used to rejuvenate the face, augment the cheeks or lips, or correct problems such as hollowness around the eyes or acne scars. Many people lose facial fat as they age and develop a hollow or gaunt look. Fat grafting can be used to correct this and give a younger, more refreshed look. Fat grafting is also referred to as free fat transfer. Some of the fat reimplanted is reabsorbed within a few months, but some of the augmentation will be permanent.
Fat grafting is the procedure where your own fat stores are utilized to augment, rejuvenate or correct. Fat grafting can be used to augment the cheeks or lips or anywhere else augmentation is desired, correct tissue deficiencies or simply rejuvenate the mature or thin face for a more “refreshed” look.
