Facial fat injection, which is performed using fat tissue taken from the person herself, can yield effective results in reducing wrinkles, acne and scars, skin rejuvenation and adding fullness to the skin.

With advancing age, unwanted changes occur in the skin; eyebrows sag, expression lines become more pronounced, cheeks become hollow, and wrinkles around the nose become more noticeable. The effects of skincare products used to eliminate signs of aging and reduce the marks of time are only noticeable to a certain extent.

Recently, fat injection has become one of the most popular non-surgical aesthetic treatments for those looking to reduce facial wrinkles, generally rejuvenate, lift sagging skin, and correct facial depressions. This method, which can be applied to the breasts, hands, body, and face, provides a fuller and smoother skin appearance, reducing signs of aging. The injected fat tissue, being a living tissue, lasts for many years. Unlike other filler applications, the absence of chemical substances is considered one of the main advantages of facial fat injection. The method uses the patient's own fat tissue, usually taken from the abdominal area.

What is Facial Fat Injection?

Facial fat injection involves centrifuging fat tissue taken from the abdomen, waist, or thighs and injecting it into the subcutaneous tissue of facial areas such as the lips, cheekbones, chin, forehead, or cheeks. This effective method reduces wrinkles and provides volume to the face. The fat tissue, rich in stem cells, not only adds volume but also has rejuvenating and restorative effects on the tissues.

What is Facial Fat Injection Used For?

Facial fat injection, performed for aesthetic purposes, is usually done under local anesthesia. It can be applied to the entire face or just specific areas to eliminate signs of aging and add volume.

Before the procedure, aesthetic surgeons analyze the patient's facial features, understand their expectations, and plan the fat injection accordingly. The advantages of facial fat injection include:

  • No chemical or foreign substances are injected into the skin, eliminating the possibility of allergic reactions.
  • The patient achieves a natural, radiant, and firm complexion.
  • The recovery process is relatively quick, and hospitalization is not required.
  • After the injection, the skin becomes fuller and more youthful. Unlike other filler treatments, the effects continue as long as the injected fat tissue remains viable.
  • The fat tissue is also rich in stem cells, promoting skin renewal and rejuvenation.
