Facial fat grafting uses your body’s own fat to restore lost volume and smooth contours in the face. Commonly used in the cheeks, temples, and under-eyes, it provides long-lasting, soft, and natural-looking enhancement.

Benefits of a Facial Fat Transfer:

  • Restores youthful facial volume

  • Smooths wrinkles and folds

  • Uses natural tissue with no synthetic filler

  • Long-lasting, natural results
