Face Fat Fill/ Fat Transfer Bangalore
Fat transfer to the face, also known as facial Fat Grafting, is a surgical procedure in which fat is extracted from another part of the body and processed before being reintroduced to the face. This treatment will add volume to ageing areas of the face while also rejuvenating the overlying skin.
Our bodies produce less and less collagen, the protein that keeps our skin plump and youthful, as we age. As our collagen levels decline, our skin loses elasticity, causing wrinkles and sagging. Fat transfer to the face is an excellent way to fill defects, improve contouring and help restore volume to the face, particularly in sunken areas.
If you want a long-term solution to ageing facial features, a facial fat graft (Antiaging treatment with Fat) would be more effective than a non-surgical treatment like dermal fillers. A fat transfer to the face is a more organic approach than dermal fillers due to the nature of the donor material, fat from your own body. Between 50 and 70% of fat cells survive the transfer process and establish a blood supply, implying that the results are permanent. Dermal fillers’ effects fade after 9 months to 1 year and there is only so much that can be injected at one time.
