Fat Transfer: Is It for Me?
Fat injections are also referred to as fat transfers as this procedure removes fat from one part of the body and transfers it to another part. Fat transfers are most often used to rejuvenate the face by adding volume to sunken cheeks, augmenting thin lips and correcting the hollows under the eyes. Dr. Greenwald begins the fat transfer procedure by extracting fat cells from an appropriate area of the body, such as the buttocks and/or thighs. He then uses a special method to prepare the fat cells before injecting them in the face. Because only a small needle is inserted in the facial tissue, Westchester fat injections patients require no bandages or special care after their fat transfer procedures.
Fat transfer technique is a unique method of facial rejuvenation because it uses the patient’s own tissue. Unlike injections of facial fillers, fat transfer procedure does not introduce any foreign substances in the body. As a result, there is no risk of an allergic reaction or rejection. However, the body absorbs some of the injected fat cells, which is why Dr. Greenwald recommends that fat injections Westchester patients undergo several fat transfer procedures. After the desired result is achieved, many patients schedule periodic fat injections to maintain the beautiful rejuvenation effect.
