Fat Transfer Face Surgery in Chicago

Bring Back Volume. Bring Back Youth. Bring Back You.
As we get older, the face naturally loses fat — and that’s when hollow cheeks, sunken under-eyes, and a tired look begin to show up. Fat transfer is one of the most natural ways to restore that lost volume and give your face a refreshed, youthful lift.
This isn’t about adding something artificial. It’s about putting your own fat right back where it belongs.
Why Fat Transfer? Because Natural Always Wins.
Fat grafting uses the body’s own tissue, so it blends seamlessly into your facial contours. And once the fat settles and builds its own blood supply, it can last for years — giving you long-term, natural-looking results without the need for synthetic fillers. No harsh edges. No overfilled look. Just soft, subtle, youthful fullness.

Fat Transfer Face

Fat Transfer Face Surgery Chicago

Bring Back Natural Volume and Youth

As we age, the face can lose fat, causing hollow cheeks, under-eye sunken areas, or a tired appearance. Fat transfer is a procedure where fat from your own body is used to restore volume, smooth lines, and lift facial contours naturally. This method avoids synthetic fillers and gives long-lasting results.

How the Procedure Works — Simple, Safe, and Strategic

Here’s a quick breakdown of what actually happens:
  • Step 1: Fat is gently taken from areas like your stomach, hips, or thighs.
  • Step 2: It’s purified to keep only the healthiest fat cells.
  • Step 3: That fat is carefully injected into areas needing volume — cheeks, temples, under-eye hollows, jawline, and more.
The results? A smoother, plumper, refreshed version of you — without looking like you’ve had work done.

Who’s a Good Candidate?

Fat transfer is ideal for people who want:
  • Fuller cheeks or lifted facial contours
  • Improvement in deep under-eye hollows
  • A smoother, more youthful look
  • Long-lasting volume without synthetic fillers
  • Natural results that stay true to your facial structure
Your Face. Your Fat. Your Most Natural Lift.

Fat transfer is one of the few treatments that looks and feels like you — just younger, fresher, and more balanced.

The difference in procedures is the extent of scarring. Flaps are used during a simple lift procedure. Fat transfer is used for patients who desire a more fullness over their buttock area. During the fat transfer procedure, the removed fat is placed deeply within the muscle and in many different layers to create a smooth surface without irregularities. It is common for surgeons to perform liposuction as well to enhance the shape of the buttocks.

Fat grafting has changed buttock enhancement to be a simpler procedure, performed within 1.5 hours, with minimal pain, discomfort, and recovery time. Candidates for this surgery are usually 18 years or older and in good physical health.

BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT PRE-OPERATION

If you are a smoker, your surgeon will strongly urge you to quit at least six weeks before your surgery as smoking can interfere with the healing process and the viability of the fat grafts. Also, medications that can increase the risk of bleeding should be stopped. As this surgery is performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia, it’s important to arrange for transportation.
