As part of our aging process, our skin loses its elasticity, volume, and hydration. We need all of those to promote a healthy-looking and youthful appearance. For many people, getting rid of facial creases such as laugh lines, smile lines, forehead wrinkles, and crow’s feet is their ultimate desire. They can be filled with harvested fat from the abdomen, thighs or other areas. Acne scars and sunken spots on the face, lips, and cheeks can also be filled in.

Fat injections are performed when more volume is desired in a part of the body, such as the face or hands. To achieve the desired fuller appearance of an area, the patient’s fat cells are removed from undesirable areas like the hips, abdomen, and thighs and transferred. This procedure is often a solution for individuals that have developed postoperative contour irregularities and scarring. In addition, facial fat grafting is a minimally invasive option that restores volume to your face slowing down the natural signs of aging and restoring your youthful appearance.

A common area often missed, which can be a telltale sign of aging, is the hands. The hands can be improved significantly by using fillers or fat grafting to enhance the appearance of the veins and tendons, making the hands look much more youthful and healthier.
