The purpose of a Fat Transfer is to give the face more definition and volume, as well as, a more youthful appearance.  A desired look is achieved by filling in fine lines or wrinkles and modifying the shape of the cheeks and chin areas.  Common areas for a fat transfer are the hollow area under the eyes, the upper and lower lip, and smile lines. A SERIES of injections is typically needed to achieve a successful result.  Some redness, swelling, and bruising are common after each procedure.  It is realistic to allow 7-10 days of "down-time" for recovery.  Using fresh fat is always more advantageous than using frozen fat.  However, fat can be stored frozen for a period of time up to one year.  Before & After Before After Before After Before After Before After Before After Before After Before After Before After Advanced Dermatology P.C. and The Center for Laser and Cosmetic Surgery would like to thank and give credit to Trisha N.
