Fat Transfer to the Face in Ottawa

The loss of facial volume is, unfortunately, a very predictable sign of aging. With time, the cheeks can lose volume and appear gaunt, the lips flatten, and the temples can appear hollow. This results in wrinkles and creases in the skin, sagging, and a loss of definition around the jawline.

Dr. Ian MacArthur is a Top Rated, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in Ottawa who can help you achieve the aesthetic results you desire.

What is Fat Grafting?

Facelift surgery is normally used to treat sagging skin and creases in the lower face, but it cannot restore volume on its own. For this reason, facial fat grafting is often performed concurrently with a facelift procedure.
Facial fat grafting serves as an effective, natural treatment that restores volume to provide beautiful, youthful facial changes. Think of it as the surgical equivalent of facial fillers, but one that is permanent, using your own tissue.

The Procedure

Fat grafting is a cutting-edge surgical treatment to restore volume and contour to the face.

This procedure can be done under local or general anesthetic and begins with careful liposuction treatment to harvest healthy fat cells from another area of your body (often the thighs or hips). Liposuction is a surgical technique that uses tiny, hidden incisions to remove fat from under the skin to improve the shape and contour of the treated area. The harvested fat is then processed to ensure only healthy, viable fat cells remain. These fat cells are then injected into a recipient area, such as the lips or cheeks.

Because this technique uses your tissue, there are very few possible complications. Patients may, however, require more than one fat grafting procedure to achieve their desired results. It can also take up to three months to see the final, permanent results.

Recovery from facial fat grafting is relatively painless, although there can be bruising and swelling that lasts for 2 to 3 weeks. Most patients are comfortable in public around week two.
