Facial Fat Grafting

A beautiful facial profile without surgery

At first, it may sound a little strange to inject fat into areas of your body. After all, isn’t thin always in? The truth is that for many of us, there’s an area or two on the body or face that isn’t quite as full or plump as we’d like, and this thinner appearance only gets worse as we age. To correct the lack of volume, Dr. Ditesheim performs these purified fat injections.

This procedure, also known as autologous fat transfer, is ideal for individuals who are looking to plump their skin in an effort to “fill out” their faces and maintain a youthful look, as well as those who wish to refine their facial features.

We can use fat injections to:

• Create a better balance in the shape of your face
• Add fullness to sunken or wrinkled areas of the lips, cheeks and chin
• Enhance the lips, reshape the cheeks or chin, or to soften deep hollows beneath the eyes.
• Fill out deep facial creases
• Improve the appearance of skeletal-looking hands, breast or body.

The benefits of fat injections

Soft, natural, entirely personalized – fat transfer uses your own tissue to enhance or reshape facial or body features.

Fat injections have a number of advantages over temporary filler products and facial surgery:

• No incisions or resulting scars on the face
• Results will age naturally with you
• No risk of allergic reaction, since your own natural fat is used
• Results feel soft, smooth and 100% natural
• Can be performed alone or at the same time as facial surgery
