Facial Fat Transfer

Facial fat transfer—also known as autologous fat grafting—is one of the safest, most natural, and long-lasting methods for facial rejuvenation.
In this procedure, a small amount of fat is harvested from the patient’s own body, purified, and precisely injected into selected areas of the face to restore lost volume and youthful contours.

At Dr. Akbari Aesthetic & Wellness Clinic, located in Farmanieh, North Tehran, we provide advanced fat injection treatments performed by highly skilled physicians using state-of-the-art equipment and strict medical standards.

🩺 What Is Fat Injection and How Is It Done?

During a fat transfer procedure, your doctor gently removes a small amount of fat—typically from the abdomen, thighs, or hips—using a fine suction device.
The collected fat is then purified and concentrated in a centrifuge to isolate healthy, viable fat cells.
Finally, these refined fat cells are carefully injected into the desired areas of the face to restore lost volume, smooth wrinkles, and rejuvenate the skin.

Because the fat comes from your own body, the procedure is 100% biocompatible, minimizing the risk of allergic reactions or rejection.

💆‍♀️ Common Areas for Facial Fat Injection

Fat can be injected into almost any area of the face to restore volume and smoothness. The most popular treatment areas include:

Cheeks

Restoring cheek volume with fat grafting enhances facial contours and recreates a youthful lift. Compared to dermal fillers, it offers a softer, more natural result with longer-lasting effects.

Nasolabial Folds (Smile Lines)

Injecting fat into the smile lines helps smooth deep creases around the mouth, resulting in a fresher and more relaxed appearance.

Under-Eye Hollows

Fat transfer under the eyes effectively treats dark circles and hollow tear troughs, brightening the entire face.

👩‍⚕️ Who Is a Good Candidate for Facial Fat Transfer?

You may be an ideal candidate for facial fat grafting if you:

• Have visible volume loss in the cheeks, under eyes, or around the mouth
• Prefer a natural alternative to synthetic fillers
• Are in good general health and do not smoke
• Have no active infections or blood-clotting disorders

If you’re over 30 and looking for a natural rejuvenation method, schedule a consultation with the specialists at Dr. Akbari Clinic in Farmanieh, North Tehran to discuss your personalized treatment plan.
