Facelift with fat transfer has become a trend and has been recommended by many. The goal of facelift surgery is to reverse the aging signs, restore the laxity and remove excess skin as well as adjust the subcutaneous tissue to bring back the youthful look; but it can not help enhance the volume lost due to aging. With the combination of facelift and fat transfer, patients can now archive a more perfect natural youthful look. Let’s find out further about the characteristics of this procedure with Gangwhoo hospital via the article below.
What is a facelift with fat transfer?
As a result of the natural aging process, the face has to suffer from volume deflating due to soft tissue and fat loss as well as drooping/sagging skin due to the decrease in skin elasticity. There can also be prominent lines and wrinkles forming that make your face look dark and sad all the time. Combining a facelift with fat transfer can get rid of all the facial flaws and create a more natural and aesthetically pleasing youthful appearance than what each procedure can bring.
As many have known, a facelift will help draw taunt the facial skin by tightening the loose skin and adjusting the subcutaneous tissue; but the issue with facial volume can not be solved as it is not the main goal of this procedure. On the other hand, the fat transfer procedure’s goal is to restore the plumpness of the face and bring back volume to the sunken and hollowed areas. Fat tissue is extracted via liposuction, most probably from the abdomen or thighs, then purified and separated to achieve a high concentration of stem cells and healthy fat cells.
By performing these two procedures together, the results can be more beneficial, and facial contours will regain their youthfulness.
What can be expected from a facelift with fat transfer?
The outcome of a facelift with the fat transfer may be considered permanent. Although the beauty archived from a facelift can last many years, the natural aging process will eventually lead to changes in the face and body over time. However, the long-term effect related to aging signs will surely be lessened if you have had facelift surgery. As with fat transfer procedure, whichever type it may be, a small amount of fat will become naturally absorbed by the body, that’s why surgeons will inject slightly more fat as a possible solution. Compared to dermal fillers, which have to be injected repeatedly after months, fat transfer results are significantly longer and
Right after undergoing these procedures, it is normal to experience some swelling and bruising but this will not reflect the final result which will become more remarkable after a couple of weeks.

Who can be a candidate for a facelift with fat transfer?
For a facelift, anyone who suffers from the consequences of aging and wishes to get rid of them in an effective and long-lasting way can be a candidate; they also need to be in relatively good health to ensure the success rate of the surgery.
Whereas fat transfer is less invasive and has a lower risk of complications than facelift surgery, it can be performed on patients who are, for some reason, not suitable for a facelift procedure.
What does a facelift with fat transfer involve?
As facelift has been one of the most popular plastic surgery chosen by many, its procedure is not unfamiliar anymore. Depending on which parts of the face customers want to bring back the youthfulness to, the surgeon will consult, examine and design a suitable surgical plan for them. Facelift surgery includes making strategic incisions so that they can be almost invisible post-surgery, the facial skin is drawn taunt and the underlying tissue is adjusted.
The principle of a facelift with fat transfer is the same as a fat injection to the breast or buttock; excess fat tissue is first removed from other areas of the body via liposuction, most commonly used source is from the abdomen or thighs, then the processed to filter impurities before injected into target facial sunken or hollowed areas.
Unlike a facelift, many people are still understandably hesitant to undergo fat transfer alongside a facelift due to a lack of information and examples of successful cases compared to that dermal fillers or implants. But the fat transfer is relatively a safer procedure as it includes using fat extracted from the customer’s own body which lowers the risk of rejection when inserting foreign material into the body.
The benefit of combining a facelift with fat transfer
As stated above, facelift surgery can erase the majority of aging signs on the face, including sagging or drooping skin, tissue laxity, and wrinkles; but it can not enhance skin volume.
The fat transfer will fill in the sunken and hollowed areas on the face like cheeks or around the eyes; Injections may be performed around the eyes to decrease the prominence of the tear trough deformity and for further contouring around the cheekbones. Fat can also be injected directly to plump up deep wrinkles, including smile and marionette lines.
Not many people are aware of the benefits of combining a facelift with fat transfer to restore facial volume and smoothen out facial imperfections, as well as optimize the natural contours of the face. A facelift combined with fat transfer is also called a “lift and fill facelift”.
Fat transfer alone is mostly recommended for certain cases with less prominent aging signs due to its limited effect in improving facial sagging state while facelift has become a golden standard in addressing advanced facial flaws.
Bringing these two procedures together will bring a more aesthetically pleasing and long-lasting result for customers.
Moreover, if customers follow aftercare instructions for a facelift with fat transfer provided by medical workers closely, the results of this combined procedure will surely be maintained for a much longer time.
