Fat Injection

Fat injection is one of the most frequently used applications with extremely comprehensive areas of usage. It is used to inject the fat received from hip, thigh, abdomen to certain parts of the body (face, cheek, forehead, under the eye, cheekbone, lip). The fat is usually removed from the abdomen. Based on the operation, the fat removed from arms and legs can also be used in injection. The fat is removed with special vacuums used in liposuction treatment. It is used to remove wrinkles in the face area, sagging under the eye, raising the eyelids and giving fullness to the lips, cheek, gills and in breast enlargement surgeries.

These swellings begin to decrease over time after the first two days. The recovery times of the developed swellings vary according to the region. Applying light massage to the region of the swelling 5 days after the application of ice contributes to a faster recovery. High temperatures and steam should be avoided. The fat injection application is generally a quick and easy application. It does not pose any problems for daily life after the first day of application. Bandages are placed on the parts where the fat is injected. They are removed one day after the procedure. The doctor recommends the use of antibiotics. After the application edema may occur but it disappears with recovery.

Fat injection retention time: After the fat filling application, the retention time in the applied area varies between 6-8 months. It is useful to repeat the application of fat injection over time. Fat injections applied around the eyes are permanent. It is also known that the injections with the solution in the face prevent the effects of wrinkles in the course of time despite losing effect. Although it loses its effect more quickly in regions where muscle movements are small, it has a longer effect in areas where mimic movements are less. Since it is a natural application, no allergies and side effects are observed.
