How does microfat grafting work?

The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles is inevitable with the passage of time. However, it is possible to erase the appearance of facial contouring defects through several different plastic surgery procedures. Microfat grafts, for example, are an incredible way to help reduce or eliminate wrinkles, scars, lip lines, or contour defects on your face.

In a microfat grafting procedure, fat deposits are gently removed from one area of the body (typically the abdomen, thigh, or buttocks) and are reinserted through injections into the areas of the body that require contouring. The addition of these new fat deposits fills out areas that have lost their youthful luster and restores smoothness to wrinkled or scarred regions. The process is carried out in a slow and careful manner in order to ensure that the fat is properly accepted into the face and is exposed to an adequate blood source to ensure vitality.

What is the healing process like?

A microfat graft is a relatively mild and un-invasive procedure. Following one of these operations, swelling is common around the areas from which fat has been removed and in the areas where it has been reinserted. Ice and ibuprofen should help reduce these effects, and the swelling should disappear after a few weeks at most.

What should I expect from my microfat graft?

Although it is a relatively new procedure, microfat grafts have had enormous success in helping reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, laugh lines, and contour defects. While some patients require two treatment sessions for the procedure to be fully successful, further treatment sessions are almost never needed. If you would like to learn more about what to expect from your microfat graft, please call our offices to schedule a consultation.

Insurance Guidelines

Microfat grafts are considered to be cosmetic procedures by many insurance companies, and as such, are not covered under the policy. If your insurance company considers this treatment to be cosmetic, you will be responsible for covering the cost in full. It is suggested that you check with your insurance company about their policies regarding cosmetic body enhancement.

Who Is A Candidate?

Any male who has developed wrinkles over time, who has facial scarring, or who feels as though his cheeks have developed a sallow appearance is a good candidate for microfat grafting. Good candidates are also those who are prepared to handle the after-effects of swelling and the monetary costs associated with the operation. The specific risks and the suitability of this procedure for a given individual can be determined only at the time of consultation. All surgical procedures have some degree of risk.
