As facial volume naturally diminishes with aging, improve it with facial fat grafting!

<Real-life case of DM Plastic Surgery facial fat grafting>

If there is too little fat in the face, it can look lifeless,

and wrinkles may appear deeper, making you look older than your actual age.

If there is an appropriate amount of fat in the areas where facial fat is needed,

it can create a youthful, lively, and three-dimensional look.

As aging begins, more and more people visit us because of thinning facial volume and a lack of elasticity,

seeking improvement toward a plump, youthful appearance.

People who are naturally lean-faced and worry about their facial line are also visiting us

for facial shape correction. Since procedures can be performed in various areas,

affected areas can be treated by injecting fat where needed to address these symptoms and concerns.

We would like to introduce DM Plastic Surgery’s facial fat grafting,

which helps improve age-related facial changes in middle-aged patients and enhances facial features in younger patients.

What is facial fat grafting?

As mentioned above, facial fat grafting involves harvesting unnecessary fat from your own body—such as the buttocks, thighs, or abdomen—and transplanting the harvested fat into areas of the face that lack volume. This is a procedure that can increase the overall dimensionality and volume of the face, improving it into a more youthful-looking face.

In general fat grafting, fat left over after the first graft is frozen and used for the second procedure. However, if frozen fat cells are reused in this way, the survival rate is lower than with the first fat graft, and the risk of inflammation increases. At DM Plastic Surgery, even for the second procedure, fresh, unfrozen fat is harvested and used, reducing side effects and increasing the fat survival rate to improve customer satisfaction.

The location is the most important aspect of facial fat

Facial fat can be divided into fat that is needed and fat that is not needed, depending on the area.

A face that looks sunken due to a lack of volume stands out especially well in photos,

and if areas that should look dimensional appear flat, the overall face line can look less smooth and make you appear older.

If there is excessive fat in areas where it is not needed, the face may look larger and lose dimensionality. However, if there is an appropriate amount of fat in the temples, front cheekbones, cheeks, and nasolabial folds, the face can appear smaller and become a youthful face with dimensionality.

At DM Plastic Surgery, we balance the entire face

to create lively dimensionality and smooth volume.

What makes DM Plastic Surgery’s fat grafting special!

At DM Plastic Surgery,

through sufficient consultation with board-certified plastic surgeons with extensive clinical experience,

we identify each person’s facial structure and perform fat grafting only in the areas that need it,

offering a customized procedure that increases volume and satisfaction.

By harvesting fresh fat instead of using frozen fat, we lowered the risk of side effects,

and by using fat grafting equipment, we increased the survival rate.

By injecting a uniform amount of fat to enhance elasticity and having the procedure directly performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon full of expertise,

we minimize damage to the skin and tissues, allowing for a quick return to daily life.

How is it different from regular fat grafting?

DM Plastic Surgery’s fat grafting is performed with a low-injection method, so even if swelling occurs, it can still create a natural result,

making it possible to return to daily life quickly. In addition, the board-certified plastic surgeon directly performs the procedure after establishing a 1:1 customized plan,

considering each individual’s skin, fat, facial muscles, soft tissue thickness, position, and skin elasticity. Because the procedure is customized,

the face can look beautiful and natural even when resting or smiling.

As mentioned earlier, the low-injection method delivers small amounts with fine precision, stabilizing blood vessel formation,

increasing the survival rate, and helping prevent skin sagging early, thereby reducing concerns about facial sagging.

What is the facial fat grafting procedure at DM Plastic Surgery?

Before surgery, a 1:1 customized plan is established through sufficient consultation,

and the procedure is directly performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon.

Unnecessary fat is harvested from the thighs, abdomen, and other areas through a centrifuge,

and microfat is evenly injected into the desired area.

For those who have a sharp facial impression due to an angular face,

those who want improvement in facial lines without contour surgery,

those who are worried about side effects from implants,

those who want a softer facial line,

those whose face lacks volume and looks older,

and those who want a lasting effect rather than the temporary effect of a petite cosmetic procedure,

DM Plastic Surgery recommends fat grafting for these types of patients.

Liposuction is relatively difficult even among general plastic surgery procedures,

and it is one of the procedures that requires extensive long-term know-how and a rich history of surgeries in various cases.

Even if only a small amount of fat is suctioned, it must be performed carefully and safely to reduce future liposuction side effects,

so you can expect satisfying results only when you undergo surgery after consultation with a medical team with extensive clinical experience.
