Our board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Stephen Nogan, specializes in this innovative technique to address age-related volume loss and enhance your facial contours.
What is Facial Fat Transfer?
Facial fat transfer, also known as fat grafting or fat injection, is a procedure that uses your own body fat to restore volume and improve contours in your face. This natural approach to facial rejuvenation offers long-lasting results and can address multiple areas of concern in a single treatment.

Who is a Good Candidate for Fat Transfer?
You may be an excellent candidate for facial fat transfer if:
- Your cheeks or temples have lost volume
- The area under your eyes appears sunken
- Your chin or jawline needs additional definition
- You have deep forehead lines or furrows between the eyebrows
- You want to enhance your lip volume naturally

Ideal candidates are typically younger than 65 and non-smokers, as these factors can improve fat survival rates.
The Fat Transfer Procedure at Columbus Facial Plastics
Your fat transfer journey at Columbus Facial Plastics involves several steps:
- Consultation: Dr. Nogan will assess your facial structure, discuss your goals, and create a customized treatment plan.
- Fat Harvesting: Small amounts of fat are gently removed from donor areas such as the abdomen or thighs using a specialized liposuction technique.
- Fat Processing: The harvested fat is purified and prepared for injection.
- Fat Injection: Using precise techniques, Dr. Nogan carefully injects the processed fat into the targeted facial areas to achieve natural-looking volume and contours.
- Recovery: Most patients return home the same day and can resume normal activities within 7-10 days.
The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or twilight sleep, ensuring your comfort throughout the process.
Recovery and Results
After your fat transfer procedure, you can expect:
- Minimal bruising and discomfort, which can be managed with oral medication and bruise cream
- Temporary swelling, which typically resolves within several weeks
- Visible improvements immediately, with final results becoming apparent after 3-4 months as the transferred fat settles
- Long-lasting results, with many patients enjoying enhanced facial volume for 2-2.5 years or longer
Most patients can return to work and social activities within 7-10 days. Dr. Nogan and our experienced team will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and results.
