Fat grafting & injectables
Facial fat grafting
Fat is harvested from the thigh, abdomen or flank, purified and injected where volume is missing, focusing on the midface so the face looks smaller and more three-dimensional. Takes about 60 minutes.
Who it suits
- Hollow temples and under-eyes that look tired or severe
- Want a semi-permanent alternative to fillers
Technique highlights
- Fat that takes stays semi-permanently, unlike filler
- Balance across the whole face rather than maximum volume
- Face washing is possible from the next day
Surgical steps
- Map the deficient areas and choose the donor site
- Harvest and purify the fat
- Inject in fine layers for a high take rate
- Review the take and schedule a second session if needed
Recovery & aftercare
- Stitch removal: 7days later
- Recovery: face washing from the next day
- Surgery time: 60minutes approx.
- Anaesthesia: painless sedation
- Follow-up visits: 1~2visit(s)
Risks & things to consider
- Results depend on each person's anatomy and after-care.
- Every operation carries risks and possible complications; consult a board-certified plastic surgeon first.
- Surgery time and recovery figures come from Private's official pages and may change after assessment.
Frequently asked questions
How long does fat grafting last?
The take rate cannot be predicted, but fat that survives does not dissolve over time the way filler does, so the effect is semi-permanent.
When should the second session be?
A second graft is possible within five months of the first, but two to three months afterwards is usually the best window.
