Facial fat transfer for men at Headwaters Surgical is an innovative procedure that uses your body’s own fat to restore volume and rejuvenate your face while maintaining your masculine features. Dr. Baldwin combines her surgical expertise with an understanding of male facial aesthetics to create natural-looking results.
This minimally invasive procedure involves three steps:
- Harvesting: Using gentle liposuction, Dr. Baldwin removes fat from areas of your body where you have excess, such as the abdomen or sides of your torso.
- Processing: The harvested fat is carefully purified to ensure only the healthiest fat cells are used.
- Injection: The processed fat is then precisely injected into specific areas of your face to restore volume and improve contours.
Facial fat transfer can address various concerns in men, including:
– Restoring volume to hollow cheeks or temples
– Softening deep facial wrinkles and folds
– Improving the appearance of acne scars
– Enhancing the jawline and chin area
One of the major benefits of facial fat transfer is its natural-looking and long-lasting results. Since the procedure uses your own fatty tissue, it avoids the need for repeated filler injections that only provide temporary volume enhancement. Unlike dermal fillers that require ongoing touch-ups, the fat transferred during this procedure contains your living tissue that integrates naturally and provides more durable, long-lasting results. Additionally, the transferred fat contains growth factors that may improve the overall quality of your skin. Since Dr. Baldwin will use your own tissue, there’s also no risk of allergic reaction.
During your consultation, Dr. Baldwin will assess your facial structure and discuss your goals to create a personalized treatment plan. She’ll explain the procedure in detail, including the expected recovery process and potential risks.
Recovery from facial fat transfer is typically quicker than many other facial procedures. While you may experience some swelling and bruising, most patients return to normal activities within a week or two. It’s important to note that about 50% of the injected fat will survive long-term, providing lasting results.
