Facial fat grafting

Facial fat grafting at VIEW harvests fat from areas with excess such as the thighs or abdomen, purifies it and injects it into hollow or sunken areas such as under the eyes, temples, cheeks and nasolabial folds.

Who it suits

  • Hollow or dark under-eye areas
  • Sunken temples or cheeks
  • Deep nasolabial folds

Technique highlights

  • Uses your own fat, so allergy risk is avoided
  • Adds volume and improves skin quality together
  • Can be combined with other surgeries

Surgical steps

  • Identify target areas and fat donor site
  • Liposuction and fat-cell purification
  • Layered fat injection into target areas
  • Recover and attend follow-up

Recovery & aftercare

  • Swelling and bruising for 1–2 weeks
  • About 50–70% of injected fat remains after 3 months

Risks & things to consider

  • A touch-up may be needed if fat resorption is high
  • Results depend on fat quality and injection technique
