Youthful faces are defined not only by tight skin but by balanced volume. As aging progresses, facial fat gradually diminishes and shifts downward. Hollow temples, flattened cheeks, under-eye depressions, and thinning lips can make the face appear tired or older than one feels internally.
Facial fat grafting offers a natural solution for restoring lost volume. At Sharp Plastic Surgery Clinic, this procedure is performed with precision and artistic planning, using the patient’s own fat to create soft, harmonious rejuvenation that integrates seamlessly with natural facial structure.
Understanding Age-Related Volume Loss
Collagen depletion is only part of facial aging. Over time, fat pads that once supported youthful contours shrink or descend. The result is shadowing, sagging, and imbalance.
Volume loss often appears in areas such as:
-
Cheeks
-
Temples
-
Under-eye hollows
-
Nasolabial folds
-
Jawline
Restoring these areas improves contour while maintaining softness.
What Is Facial Fat Grafting?
Facial fat grafting, also known as fat transfer, involves harvesting a small amount of fat from areas such as the abdomen or thighs, purifying it, and injecting it strategically into the face.
Because the material comes from the patient’s own body, it integrates naturally and eliminates the risk of allergic reaction. Once stabilized, transferred fat cells establish blood supply and become a living part of the facial tissue.
The result is natural volume with long-term durability.
Precision in Volume Placement
The success of fat grafting depends on strategic placement. Overfilling can create puffiness, while insufficient support may limit results.
At Sharp Plastic Surgery Clinic, surgeons evaluate facial proportions and distribute fat in micro-droplets to ensure even integration. Layered injection techniques promote smooth contour and improve survival rate of transplanted cells.
Balanced volume restores youth without exaggeration.
Enhancing Midface Fullness
The midface is central to youthful appearance. Cheek fullness supports the lower eyelid and softens nasolabial folds. When this area loses volume, the face may appear sunken or fatigued.
Fat grafting replenishes midface support, lifting surrounding structures subtly and improving overall contour. The effect is natural and harmonious.
Under-Eye Rejuvenation
Under-eye hollows can create shadowing and a tired appearance. Fat grafting gently fills these depressions, smoothing transitions between eyelid and cheek.
Because fat integrates biologically, the result appears soft and natural rather than artificially filled.
Careful technique ensures delicate correction in this sensitive area.
Combining Fat Grafting with Other Procedures
Facial fat grafting is often combined with contouring surgery, thread lifting, or rhinoplasty to enhance overall harmony.
By restoring volume alongside structural refinement, surgeons achieve comprehensive rejuvenation. Integration ensures cohesive results rather than isolated improvement.
Personalized planning maximizes aesthetic balance.
Procedure and Recovery
Fat grafting is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on complexity. The harvesting process is minimally invasive, and purified fat is injected into targeted facial areas.
Swelling and mild bruising are common during the first one to two weeks. Over time, a portion of transferred fat stabilizes permanently, while excess naturally absorbs.
Final results become more refined over several months.
Longevity of Results
Unlike temporary fillers, fat grafting offers long-lasting improvement. Once grafted fat establishes blood supply, it behaves like natural tissue.
While minor touch-ups may be considered in some cases, many patients enjoy sustained results for years.
Durability makes fat grafting a preferred option for natural rejuvenation.
Safety and Expertise
Fat grafting requires meticulous purification and injection technique to ensure even distribution and optimal survival.
Sharp Plastic Surgery Clinic emphasizes sterile handling, micro-injection precision, and individualized volume planning to reduce complications and maximize results.
Medical expertise ensures safe and predictable outcomes.
Emotional and Confidence Benefits
Restoring lost facial volume often produces subtle yet transformative changes. Patients frequently report looking refreshed and healthier without appearing “treated.”
Because the enhancement uses natural tissue, results feel authentic and aligned with personal identity.
Confidence often grows as facial harmony returns.
