Fat Grafting

Fat grafting is a safe, natural procedure designed to create fuller cheeks, healthier eyes, a stronger jaw line, and fuller looking lips. Fat grafting helps eliminate the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, bags, jowls and folds. Fat grafting can also be used to fill divots just about anywhere on the body including arms, legs, abdomen, buttocks or any other area that needs plumping.

The procedure involves harvesting small amounts of fat from the abdomen or thighs and injecting it as little droplets throughout the treatment areas. Unlike synthetic fillers, fat comes from one’s own body so there is no chance of allergic reaction.

The treated area will be injected with a local anesthesia and patients will be given an oral sedation. Downtime is minimal and patients should be able to resume their regular activities within a couple of days.

Fat grafting effects typically last several years or longer.
