Fat grafting is a procedure in which fat cells are harvested from the back of your thighs to be injected into the face, to add volume in sunken and dull-looking parts of the face. It's a highly popular treatment for patients who want to look more youthful and round - results are instant and can last years longer than hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, which are known to dissolve after about 9-12 months. Plus, fat graft doesn't use any foreign substances, but cells that come from your own body, which means there is no risk of any allergic reaction or side effects. Even better, when compared with the price of multiple filler injections, fat graft can also be a more economically smart choice.
However, this does not mean that fat graft is the most suitable treatment for anybody who wants to look younger. Consultation is a must to determine whether or not you are the right candidate. So before you decide whether you want to go through with fat graft, take a quick look through this checklist and then book for a consultation!
1. My face is sunken and dull.
The major purpose of fat graft is to improve and replenish lost volume in the face. As we age, our face becomes more sunken, casting shadows and giving that perpetually tired look. If this is what you want to fix, fat graft can be the solution for you.
2. I have plenty of fat in my thighs.
This is no surprise, but you'll need to have enough fat to harvest in order to do fat graft. The best quality fat comes from the back of your thighs; if you are too skinny, there may not be enough for you to achieve the results you want.
3. My major concerns are for wider areas in the face (cheeks, forehead etc.).
For more delicate areas like the tear trough (under eyes), dermal filler may be a better option than fat graft. Hyaluronic acid fillers are available in different-sized particles, and can be more intricate and precise than fat graft. Fat graft is more suitable for improving general, larger areas like the cheek or forehead.
4. I don't mind some downtime.
Bear in mind that fat graft is still considered a surgery. The cannula used to extract the fat is quite thick and you will need to be stitched up. Stitches are removed after one week. Furthermore, since the initially injected fat can go away pretty quickly, the doctor always injects more than is necessary at first, giving you a very swollen look that will make you look awkward for several days. It's a much bigger procedure than filler, which is so simple that you can return to work the next day and nobody can tell you had anything done. Make sure that you are prepared for this 1-2 week downtime.
