Synthetic materials are commonly used in plastic surgery as implants or wrinkle erasers. They are perfectly safe to use, but some patients experience a bad reaction to them once they are inserted into the body. Some patients even experience complete rejection of the material and have to undergo the procedure all over again.<\/p>\n
With facial fat transfers<\/a>, the fat used in the procedure comes directly from the patient, which means that it is essentially being moved from one area of your body to another. Your body is much more likely to accept the extra fat cells because they are already a part of you, significantly reducing and even eliminating the risks involved with using synthetic materials.<\/p>\n Fat is found everywhere on your body, including throughout your face, which means that fat can be moved to pretty much anywhere it is needed. If you need volume added to your cheeks or chin to improve the contouring on your face, fat transfers can do that. If your nose has some bumps or dents that need correcting but don\u2019t necessarily require a full rhinoplasty, fat transfers can fix that. If your eyes look hollow or overly hollow, fat transfers can improve that. They can even improve the look of fine lines and wrinkles. Clearly, there are a wide variety of options for using facial fat transfers throughout your face.<\/p>\n Sometimes the final results for a facial plastic surgery need a little extra \u201cumph\u201d to make them truly amazing. Rather than undergoing additional surgery, sometimes using fat transfers can achieve the desired result by giving the procedure a little boost.<\/p>\n While fat transfers are not entirely nonsurgical, they are minimally invasive. The fat has to be harvested before it can be transferred, which usually involves a small incision in the thigh or the buttocks. Once the fat is acquired and prepared for transfer, however, the injections are quite literally injections without extra incisions or general anesthesia.<\/p>\n Because the procedure is minimally invasive, there is very little recovery time needed for patients. You will be able to leave within a couple of hours and resume normal activities right away. There are mild side effects, including a small amount of redness and swelling, but these will disappear after a couple of days once your body gets used to the extra fat deposits.<\/p>\n Because the fat cells used in the procedure are from your own body, they slowly become integrated into the fat that is already present in the treatment area. Once they become a part of your body\u2019s soft tissue, they\u2019re going to stay put for a long time and look as though that fat has always been there. The fat transfers won\u2019t slow down the aging process, but you\u2019ll get plenty of time to enjoy the full benefits of their results.<\/p>\n These advantages are only some of the ones you will enjoy with a facial fat transfer procedure!
