Fat transfer to your face gives you rounder, softer contours for a more youthful look. It re-establishes volume in areas where aging has caused fat depletion, hollows and sagging skin. And the best thing is that fat lasts forever and it’s all your own, so you don’t have to worry about getting routine touch-ups or suffering from an allergic reaction to a foreign substance!
Fat transfer to the face is a cosmetic surgical procedure that requires not only technical expertise, but also artistic skill as it is a true three dimensional sculpting.
You’ll love how your own unwanted fat can be used in your upper cheeks to give a gentle lift of your face, or to create a more upside down triangular face. You can use it to fill out undereye hollows, replenish lost volume in the temples, and reshape your chin and jawline. Our patients often remark how they look years younger, and many exclaim that nobody can ever tell that they got surgery! This is because fat is a natural substance that yields natural looking results when the procedure is performed by an experienced facial plastic surgeon like Dr. Kesarwani.
Fat transfer is a surgical procedure that takes fat from one part of the body (donor site) and reinjects it into another part. Autologous fat transfer is when your own fat is used.
A personal consultation with Dr. Kesarwani can help you determine if fat transfer may be the right procedure to help you reach your aesthetic goals. Internationally known in this area, he will take the time to answer all your questions and explain how this and other potential cosmetic procedures can help you look and feel your natural best. Dr. Kesarwani can also show you before and after fat injection photos from patients she has performed the procedure on previously.
Fat Transfer in Toronto, or autologous fat grafting, is a unique procedure that transfers fat from one region of the body to another to improve fine lines and wrinkles as well as the contours of the face. It can also be used to add volume to the midface and chin as well as depressed or deficient areas on any part of the body. Dr. Kesarwani can also augment and reshape other areas on the body with excess fat such as the hands and buttocks to help you look and feel your best.
I love performing fat grafts – it is a true sculpting – where we can revolumize areas where fat has been lost to reestablish a youthful look – all with no scars – and the fat lasts!
If you want a rejuvenation and improvement of your facial contours that lasts for years, consider using your own fat instead of temporary filler products (such as those based on hyaluronic acid).
The great thing about facial fat grafting is that more volume can be injected than temporary injectable fillers, and the cost is significantly less. For example, a single treatment may involve injecting 30-60cc of purified fat, while a standard amount of temporary injectable filler is only 1-5cc. In addition, you’ll have the added benefit of flattening out an unwanted fat bulge in your mid-section or inner thighs!
Fat Transfer is a relatively safe procedure that is far less invasive than other plastic surgery treatments. Some swelling, bruising and numbness are to be expected at both the area from which the fat is taken and where it is transferred to. These are both considered temporary and will go away within a few days to weeks. Risks are rare, and include the following:
Fat Transfers in Toronto produce natural results, since the tissue used is withdrawn from the patient’s own body. This procedure takes around an hour to perform and requires little downtime for recovery following your appointment. By restoring facial volume with fat, we can help you achieve more natural-looking results of a youthful complexion as opposed to synthetic formulas. Once the fat has been administered into the targeted area, the body may break some of it down. However, any fat that is left behind in the treated area will grant long-term results you can adore. Should you seek future rejuvenation, excess fat that was harvested at the time of your procedure can be stored and used as a filler during a future appointment.
