Fat Grafting and Injections - St. Louis

Facial fat grafting and facial fillers are used to add or replace volume in the face. Both methods will sculpt the face and add fullness giving a “lifted,” more-rested, and youthful appearance. Grafted fat often lasts longer than other fillers, it ages well, and it is ideal under the eyes and in the cheek, chin, and temple. Liposuction is used to collect the fat so there is the added benefit of body contouring. Grafted fat can also be used in the body to create fullness, freshness, and a more youthful appearance.
Non-fat fillers (out of a vial or a syringe) are temporary sources of volume that do not require liposuction and can take place readily and conveniently in the office.

Fat grafting and fat injections are used for patients who want to use their own body fat as a “filler.” Grafted fat often lasts longer than other fillers and will age well along with the patient. For delicate areas such as under the eye, using your own fat can create the most natural look that lasts for years. Grafted fat can also be used in other parts of the face and body to create fullness, freshness and a more youthful appearance.
