Why consider facial fat grafting?

As the face ages, it undergoes a variety of undesirable changes. The skin begins to lose its elasticity, succumbing to wrinkles, fine lines and sagging. In addition, the face begins to lose fat in key areas, leading to a hollow, tired look, especially around the eyes, the cheekbones, the lips and the temples.

The loss of facial volume can be treated in several different ways. Most commonly, facial fillers can be used to plump and hydrate the areas of depletion. However, dermal fillers are not right for everyone. Some patients may prefer a more organic approach through Dr. Sayah's Beverly Hills fat grafting, which involves harvesting fat from a donor area such as the thighs, hips, stomach or lower back and then injecting it into the places where the face has sacrificed its youthfulness. Dr. Sayah refines your fat into smaller droplets to achieve more exact results. If you choose, your fat can be enriched with your own stem cells to produce further rejuvenation and increase survival of the fat. He then injects the fat one droplet at a time into your areas of concern in a technique similar to 3D printers.

Among the many benefits of fat grafting is that it accomplishes two cosmetic goals at once: slimming and contouring the donor regions, while replenishing the target areas with a more vital, supple glow. In addition to replenishing lost volume in the face, fat grafting can also be used to augment the following areas of the body:

  • Breasts
  • Buttocks
  • Hands
  • Calves
