Facial Fat Transfer
Serving Orland Park, Oak Lawn, Chicago & Surrounding Areas
Fat transfer, also known as fat grafting, is a process that involves harvesting fat cells from other parts of the body, purifying them, and then injecting them into the treatment site. This is done to increase the volume in areas such as the cheeks, lips, chin, marionette lines, nasolabial fold, forehead, and jaw line.
Do you live in or around Orland Park or Oak Lawn and are ready for a Fat Transfer consultation?
Contact Us TodayWe typically combine fat transfer with the facelift, but we can also perform it during any liposuction procedure. It is beneficial because it is your own fat and reduces the need for other facial fillers.
The face has a robust blood supply, making fat survival high. However, knowledge of the anatomy is crucial and placement of the fat has to be precise.
