One of the signs of facial aging is the loss of volume in the face, especially in the temporal region, cheekbones, lips, chin, among others. The same patient’s fat can be placed in the face to give a more youthful look.

The patient’s own fat graft can give facial volume and is an alternative to traditional fillers such as hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxyapatite.

The main benefit to this procedure is that fat is alive, therefore, it is a more permanent solution. This is a technique that is usually recommended to complement a facelift surgery.
