Facial Fat Grafting

Conveniently located to service Ridgewood and Bergen County NJ

Are you looking for a natural solution to improve your facial features and achieve a youthful appearance? Facial fat grafting might be the answer. This technique uses your own fat to boost facial volume, contour, and vitality.

What is Facial Fat Grafting?

Facial fat grafting, also known as fat transfer to the face, is a facial surgery that involves extracting adipose fat from one part of your body, purifying it, and then injecting it into the face. This method not only fills in volume-deficient areas but also improves skin texture and tone due to the stem cells found in adipose tissue.

Benefits of Facial Fat Grafting

Facial fat grafting offers several advantages over synthetic fillers and implants, such as the following:
Long-lasting results – The effects of facial fat grafting can be permanent, unlike other fillers that need regular refreshments.
Natural look and feel – It uses your fat, allowing the added volume to integrate smoothly with your facial structure.
Minimal risk of allergic reactions – Since the filler is your own fat, there is little risk of rejection or allergic reactions.

Ideal Candidates

The ideal candidate for facial fat grafting is someone looking for long-term solutions for facial volume loss without using synthetic materials. Patients should be in good health and have realistic expectations about the results. If you consult with Dr. Pedy Ganchi, you can look at the before-and-after photo gallery of facial fat grafting patients to see what you can expect from the procedure.

The Procedure Explained

The facial fat grafting procedure involves several steps:
Fat extraction – Fat is harvested from an area like the abdomen or thighs using a gentle liposuction technique.
Purification – The extracted fat is then purified to prepare it for injection.
Injection – The purified fat is injected into specific areas of the face to restore volume and improve contour.

Aftercare

After facial fat grafting, you may experience swelling and bruising, which typically subside within a week. Dr. Ganchi recommends keeping the head elevated and applying ice packs to minimize swelling. You should avoid strenuous activities and direct sun exposure. Follow-up visits are vital to monitor healing and get optimal results.
