TRANSFER
Fat Transfer involves the removal of fat from one area of a person’s body, which is then used to rejuvenate and enhance the face. By using one’s own fat, there is minimal chance of rejection as well as a lower risk of infection, and the results are generally permanent. Fat transfer aims to correct a number of patient issues, it can help to make the cheek area appear more prominent in patients with low or unpronounced cheeks, it can also be used to correct the nasolabial folds, otherwise known as laugh lines, as well as marionette lines extending from the corner of the mouth.
How is Fat Transfer surgery performed?
First, the fat is extracted from the donor site. After extraction, the surgeon will then process the fat so that it can be injected into the desired region using tiny syringes. This can include using a centrifuge to filter it and process out the impurities. Then, the surgeon will insert a cannula or syringe into the target area to deposit the fat. They will massage the area or inject it in a certain way to provide natural-looking results.
Fat Transfer surgery can benefit:
- People who have sunken cheekbones.
- People who have marionette lines at mouth corners.
- People looking for a more lasting filler method.
