Micro Fat Grafting: Aesthetic Solutions with Your Own Fat
Micro fat grafting enhances facial and body contours by providing a natural filling effect, restoring volume, and creating a youthful and healthy appearance. Purified fat extracted from stubborn fat deposits is used to fill volume deficiencies, ensuring aesthetic harmony. This technique not only restores lost volume but also improves skin quality, making it an excellent choice for those seeking natural-looking results.
Where Can Micro Fat Grafting Be Applied?
Micro fat grafting is a widely preferred natural filler method used in facial and body aesthetics. Fat harvested from the patient’s own body undergoes purification processes before being reinjected into areas needing volume restoration. This technique is highly effective in addressing volume deficiencies, enhancing skin quality, and achieving a natural look.

✔ Genital Area – Improves fullness and aesthetic appearance.
✔ Body Contouring – Fills volume deficiencies in targeted areas to enhance overall body symmetry.
Which Areas Can Fat Transfer Be Applied To?
How Is Fat Grafting Performed?
Fat grafting consists of three main stages:
1. Fat Harvesting
Fat is extracted from areas with excess fat deposits, such as the abdomen, inner thighs, or waist. This process is performed under sedation and local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort.
2. Fat Purification
The harvested fat is purified using a special technique to preserve the viability of fat cells.
