The Benefits of Facial Fat Transfers
Over time, aging and lifestyle factors can lead to a loss of facial volume, resulting in hollow areas, sagging skin, and deep wrinkles. Facial fat transfers address these concerns by using fat harvested from other parts of the body and injecting it into areas that need volume. The benefits include:
Natural-Looking Results
Fat grafting uses your body’s own tissue, which integrates seamlessly for a soft and natural appearance.
Long-Lasting Effects
Unlike dermal fillers, facial fat transfers offer results that can last for several years.
Dual Benefits
The procedure not only enhances facial contours but also slims the area from which the fat is harvested.
How Does the Facial Fat Transfer Procedure Work?
Dr. Baltodano begins the process by carefully extracting fat from areas like the abdomen, thighs, or flanks using gentle liposuction. The harvested fat is purified and then strategically injected into targeted facial areas, such as the cheeks, nasolabial folds, or under the eyes, to create a smoother, fuller appearance. This method ensures precision and minimizes discomfort, with small, virtually invisible incisions that heal quickly.
Is Facial Fat Transfer Right for You?
Facial fat transfer is ideal for individuals who:
- Experience volume loss in the face due to aging or weight changes
- Want a natural, non-synthetic solution for facial enhancement
- Seek longer-lasting results compared to temporary fillers
Dr. Baltodano conducts detailed consultations to assess each patient’s facial structure, discuss goals, and determine if facial fat grafting is the best option. His extensive training, including his surgical internship at Johns Hopkins Hospital and advanced plastic surgery education at Albany Medical Center, ensures that each patient receives expert care and a personalized treatment plan.
