Fat grafting
Facial fat grafting, also known as fat transfer, is a cosmetic procedure that involves harvesting fat from one part of the body and injecting it into the face to restore volume and youthful contours. This technique is used to enhance facial features, smooth out wrinkles, and fill in hollow areas, such as under the eyes or in the cheeks. The procedure not only improves facial aesthetics but also provides natural-looking and long-lasting results, as the transferred fat integrates with the existing tissues. Facial fat grafting is popular for its minimally invasive nature and the added benefit of contouring the donor site, typically the abdomen or thighs.
