Fat Transfer
Fat is harvested from one part of the body and is placed in areas of the face where fat has been lost over time. It can be used to fill in the deep lines between the nose and the corners of the mouth(nasolabial folds), deep creases in the forehead, to augment the cheeks or lips and other areas of the face.
Fat transfer is done under intravenous sedation on an outpatient basis. The areas are swollen for several weeks after surgery and it will take 6 to 12 weeks to see the final outcome.
