The facial fat transfer process
Facial fat transfer is one of the most popular autologous fat injection procedures in general, as the aim of this procedure is to transfer the accumulated fat in some areas such as the abdomen or thighs, in an appropriate amount, to other areas that need this fat, such as the face or legs, to treat some problems or obtaining the appropriate and satisfactory appearance for the patient.
It is worth noting that an appropriate amount of fat must be available in the donor areas to be suctioned and then injected into the targeted areas that do not contain sufficient fatty tissue, as the lack of fatty tissue in these areas causes the patient discomfort and thus may cause a lack of confidence.
The facial fat transfer takes an average of 60 minutes at most, and it is done under local anesthesia, in addition to that, fat is often injected into the area of the upper lips as well as the cheekbones, and some redness may occur after the injection, but Dr. Yasser Badi confirms that it quickly starts to disappear within days.
Candidates for facial fat transfer
Some may think that due to the ease of the facial fat transfer process, anyone can perform such an operation, but Dr. Yasser Badi explains that some people can perform this operation and get the best results without any problems or complications, and some people do not recommend such a procedure. This process is for them to avoid any risks.
As for the people who are candidates for facial fat transfer, they are people who enjoy good health and have realistic expectations about the process, and want to have a naturally full and attractive face. They also want to hide the simple lines around each of the eyes or lips that indicate age.
Moreover, if people suffer from health problems or face allergic reactions to anesthetics, then it is not recommended to perform a facial fat transfer procedure for them, as well as people who suffer from blood thinners or take medications that work to thin the blood and reduce clotting rates, so Dr. Yasser Badi recommends that the patient inform the doctor of all the medications he is taking, as well as his medical history, before undergoing the injection.
