What Is Fat Grafting?

Facial fat grafting is an alternative, minimally invasive procedure that uses natural fat cells from your body to improve these aging problems simply by adding facial volume.

Unlike other injectable products, fat grafting uses your own donor fat which is taken from trouble areas elsewhere on your body like the hips, abdomen or buttocks. This technique can augment your facial features to fill in wrinkles and skin depression.

What Can Facial Fat Grafting Treat?

Fat grafting leaves your face smoother and fuller with a more youthful contour. Patients who visit Renaissance Plastic Surgery for Facial Fat Grafting in St. Peters, MO are commonly seeking treatment for the following:

  • Facial creases and folds
  • Hollow cheeks
  • Laugh lines
  • Thin lips

You can also anticipate improved facial balance.

What to Expect from Facial Fat Grafting in St. Peters, MO

This procedure involves the removal of your own fat from another part of your body like your buttocks or thighs. Once removed, your fat cells are purified and reinjected into the treatment area, just beneath the skin. After your procedure, there may be some swelling or bruising, but they should subside in 2-3 weeks. Some fat is usually absorbed naturally by the body, so the injection sites may be slightly over-filled at first to compensate for this effect.

Can Fat Grafting Cause an Allergic Reaction?

No, there is no risk of allergic reaction with the fat grafting procedure because it is performed using your own fat cells.
