Fat Injection

What is Fat Injection?

The method of removing excess fat cells stored in some parts of the body from the body is called liposuction. In some cases, the fat taken from the patient is thinned and re-injected into the problem area in order to reshape the areas of the patient's face and body. This method is called fat injection (lipofilling).

Who Can Apply Fat Injection?

Fat injection can be applied to different parts of the body today. It is a popular method especially in facial rejuvenation applications. Lipofilling method can be applied to eliminate problems such as dimples on the face, collapse of the face, indistinct cheekbones due to age factor or external factors. In addition, it is a surgical method that can be applied to regulate the disproportionate body structures caused by rapid weight gain and loss, to shape the curveless hips, and to remove wrinkles on the hands and face due to age.

Is Fat Injection Permanent?

It is a natural result that some of the fat given in the lipofilling treatment is melted. This melting rate varies from person to person. If the remaining oil balance after melting gives a satisfactory result, there is no need for reprocessing.

How Long Is Fat Injection Recovery Time?

Fat injection is a procedure that usually takes about 1-1.5 hours under local anesthesia. After the procedure, the patient can return to his daily life after resting for half an hour. In cases where general anesthesia is used, the average rest period is five hours.
