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 It Works

  • Fat is gently taken from areas like the tummy, thighs, or hips.
  • It is cleaned and prepared to remove any impurities.
  • The fat is injected into areas of the face that need fullness, such as cheeks, temples, or under the eyes.
  • The result is a naturally plump, smooth, and refreshed face.

Who Can Benefit

  • People with hollow cheeks or sunken under-eye areas
  • Those looking to smooth fine lines naturally
  • Anyone who wants long-lasting facial volume without artificial fillers

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.

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.
