Facial fat grafting, also known as fat transfer or fat injection, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at restoring lost volume and enhancing facial contours using the patient’s own fat cells.
Dr. Sanam Zahedi specializes in facial fat grafting, offering natural-looking results that rejuvenate the face and restore youthful fullness.
As we age, the face naturally loses volume, resulting in hollowed cheeks, sunken under-eye areas, and flattened facial contours. Facial fat grafting provides a solution by harvesting fat from one area of the body, purifying it, and strategically injecting it into targeted areas of the face to restore volume and enhance facial symmetry.
Beyond the cosmetic benefits, facial fat grafting offers long-lasting results with minimal risk of allergic reaction or rejection since it uses the patient’s own fat cells.
Patients can enjoy natural-looking results that improve facial harmony and enhance overall facial aesthetics. With Dr. Zahedi’s expertise and artistic approach, patients can achieve youthful, refreshed results that complement their natural beauty.

Wondering what to expect during the Facial Fat Grafting procedure?
Before facial fat grafting, Dr. Sanam Zahedi will conduct a comprehensive consultation to discuss the patient’s aesthetic goals and determine the areas for fat transfer.
During the procedure, anesthesia will be administered to ensure the patient’s comfort. Fat is harvested from donor areas such as the abdomen or thighs using liposuction techniques.
The harvested fat is then purified and prepared for injection into targeted areas of the face, such as the cheeks, temples, or lips, to restore volume and enhance contours.
Dr. Zahedi uses meticulous techniques to achieve natural-looking results, ensuring that the fat is injected evenly and precisely for optimal outcomes.
The procedure typically takes several hours, depending on the extent of facial fat grafting needed and whether additional procedures are performed concurrently.
And what about recovery after Facial Fat Grafting?
After facial fat grafting, patients can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in both the donor and recipient areas, which can be managed with prescribed medication and cold compresses.
Dr. Zahedi will provide specific post-operative instructions to promote optimal healing and minimize complications. Patients should plan to take time off work and avoid strenuous activities for at least a week following surgery.
It’s essential to keep pressure off the face to reduce swelling and enhance the survival of the grafted fat cells. Most swelling and bruising will subside within a few weeks, and patients can gradually resume their normal activities.
Full results of the facial fat grafting will become apparent as the swelling resolves, revealing a more youthful and rejuvenated facial appearance that can last for years with proper care and maintenance.
Facial fat grafting is a type of permanent filler, though about 60% of the injected fat is typically retained. The use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP), which is derived and processed from your own blood, can enhance the survival rate of the transplanted fat.
Facial fat grafting generally costs less than larger liposuction procedures since only a small amount of fat is required. However, there are additional costs for processing the fat and transferring it. The total cost of the procedure typically ranges from $2,500 to $4,500.
Like any cosmetic surgery, fat transfer carries potential risks. However, when performed by an experienced plastic surgeon, it is generally safe. The procedure requires a high level of skill, so choosing a surgeon with expertize in fat transfer is crucial to minimizing the risk of complications.
While facial fat transfer results are semi-permanent, they can last for a significant amount of time. Many patients report enjoying the effects for several years, with some even maintaining their results for over five years. This makes it a long-lasting solution for those seeking to enhance facial volume and contours.
The recovery time for facial fat grafting generally takes around 1 to 2 weeks for the swelling and bruising to subside. However, you can return to your normal activities after 2 to 3 weeks. But the full recovery, where the fat settles and the final results are visible, may take 3 to 6 months.
Facial fat grafting can restore a youthful look and enhance facial volume, but it won’t address stubborn fat deposits like those contributing to a turkey neck or other aesthetic concerns. On the other hand, a facelift can smooth out wrinkles and fine lines but won’t add volume to the face.
Take the first step toward achieving your ideal look by booking a facial fat grafting consultation with Dr. Sanam Zahedi in Fort Lauderdale.
