Effect of Gangnam Facial Fat Grafting, Before-and-After Comparison Review

Facial volume is

an important factor that changes the impression.

Hello, this is Ruho Plastic Surgery.

A face that determines the first impression,

less cheek fat, deep nasolabial folds, and hollows under the eyes

can easily create a tired-looking appearance.

In cases like this, an effective method is

facial fat grafting.

Today, we will take a look at a real case

of facial fat grafting performed at our clinic

and explain the surgical method and effects in detail.

These images were taken and posted with the patient's consent, and surgical results and recovery may vary by individual.

Before surgery

Gangnam facial fat grafting

Because the cheekbones and forehead looked hollow,

the facial contour appeared flat

and gave a tired impression.

The goal was to improve facial definition through fat grafting using pure fresh fat and PRP.

Fat grafting process

1️⃣ After consultation, design the areas that need volume

2️⃣ Harvest fat from the thighs, buttocks, abdomen, etc.

3️⃣ Centrifuge the harvested fat and extract pure fresh fat

4️⃣ Centrifuge the harvested blood and extract PRP growth factors

5️⃣ Mix the pure fresh fat with PRP growth factors to prepare the grafted fat to improve engraftment

6️⃣ Perform fine, even grafting into the subcutaneous fat layer

Ruho Plastic Surgery's fat grafting method

goes through the following detailed process.

3 weeks after facial fat grafting surgery

The fat grafting performed at our clinic is

not simply a procedure that fills volume,

but a surgery that fundamentally changes

the facial structure and impression.

The key is 'naturalness.'

Right after the procedure, the face may feel fuller,

but as time passes, some of the fat is absorbed

and the result changes naturally.

The photo above was taken at 3 weeks.

As the grafted fat settles naturally in the body,

the facial volume is visibly restored.

4 weeks after surgery

By 4 weeks, the volume had taken shape well,

creating a softer impression.

Ruho Plastic Surgery's fat grafting uses

autologous tissue,

so there is less foreign-body sensation and a lower risk of immune rejection.

In addition, if the grafted fat does not settle properly,

it is difficult to achieve a satisfying result.

To supplement this, we perform fat grafting using PRP (platelet-rich plasma).

For engraftment to go well, blood flow must be smooth.

PRP creates an environment in which fat cells

can receive oxygen and nutrients more easily.

With moderate volume,

you can achieve a youthful-looking appearance.

Facial fat grafting is a surgery that can

deliver a more natural result than fillers or collagen boosters.

However, it is a demanding method with many factors to consider,

such as even fat distribution and engraftment rate.

Where the fat is placed, how much is placed, and in what condition it is grafted

all determine the firm, defined impression.
