6 Benefits of Fat Grafting You Didn’t Know

Fat transfer, or fat grafting, is a surgical procedure that can resolve various aesthetic concerns. In performing a fat grafting procedure, Dr. Yash Avashia can use his highly sought-after techniques to improve your appearance by contouring your face and body.

As an expert surgeon, Dr. Yash is happy to educate his patients and potential patients about the surgical enhancements he can offer. Today, we’ll look at some of the lesser-known advantages of fat transfer to help you decide whether it’s right for you.

1. It Removes Excess Fat

A fat transfer procedure involves removing unwanted fat from areas of your body that haven’t responded to diet and exercise. Dr. Yash uses safe fat-melting and extraction techniques such as high-definition liposuction. For best results, we recommend getting liposuction in areas where you have struggled to lose weight and achieve your desired skin tone.

Via liposuction, Dr. Yash will help eliminate hard-to-lose fat pockets from one area, then use them to plump up areas where you desire more volume, such as your cheeks or lips. In this way, one single procedure provides a dual benefit.

2. It’s Safe and Effective

While dermal fillers are biocompatible, you might still be wary about introducing external substances to your body. Since fat grafting uses your natural body fat to provide volume and contour, there is no risk of any allergic reaction.

You can opt to use your fat in various procedures such as jawline rejuvenation to provide you with all-natural results and anti-aging benefits.

3. It Delivers Long-Lasting Results

While exploring the advantages of any cosmetic procedure, you must consider how long you can expect your results to last. Fortunately, fat grafts last longer than many other filler options, saving you time and money. After having Dr. Yash perform your fat transfer procedure, you won’t have to worry about frequent touch-up treatments.

4. It Can Add Instant Definition to Your Facial Structure

Apart from your jawline, you can use your body fat in various other areas of your face to add volume and definition. In turn, you will enjoy dramatic improvements without undergoing a more invasive surgery.

If you have any hollow or gaunt areas on your face, you may be an excellent candidate for fat grafting. For optimal results, discuss your areas of concern with Dr. Yash. He can create a custom surgical plan to help you achieve your desired definition without compromising your safety or long-term aesthetic. 

5. It Can Give You Luscious Lips

Thin or undefined lips are a top concern for many people. Fat grafting allows you to bid farewell to barely-there lips through your injectable body fat. You can embrace the look of plumper, fuller lips without worrying about unwanted side effects.

The process works like any other lip augmentation technique, but comes with additional advantages such as the use of your body fat and long-lasting results. Our patients who try fat grafting after using fillers for several years rave about their enhanced appearance.

6. You Can Use Fat Grafting on Your Body, Too

While Dr. Yash has provided excellent outcomes with facial fat grafting, you can also use fat transfer elsewhere on your body, adding volume to areas such as your buttocks and breasts. Discuss your concerns with Dr. Yash to achieve your ideal surgical plan.
