Fat grafting is a surgical procedure in which fat is carefully harvested from one part of the body, processed and transferred to another area.

The procedure involves three essential steps:

1. Fat harvesting

Fat is gently removed from a donor area, commonly the abdomen, flanks or thighs, using specialised liposuction techniques.

2. Fat processing

The harvested fat is processed to remove unwanted fluids, blood and other impurities. The technique used depends on the intended application and the type of fat graft required.

3. Fat transfer

The prepared fat is carefully injected into the treatment area using specialised instruments and techniques.

The objective is to achieve natural-looking volume restoration while preserving tissue quality and minimising irregularities.

Fat grafting is also known as:

• Fat transfer
• Autologous fat transfer
• Lipofilling
• Fat transplantation
• Structural fat grafting

Structural fat grafting involves transferring viable fat to areas requiring volume restoration.

It is particularly useful when the objective is to replace lost or deficient soft tissue.

Potential applications include:

• Facial volume restoration
• Cheek augmentation
• Correction of facial asymmetry
• Treatment of contour irregularities
• Breast reconstruction and contour refinement
• Correction of selected post-surgical deformities
• Soft-tissue volume restoration following trauma

Structural fat grafting is primarily a volumising procedure. The transferred fat is intended to integrate with the surrounding tissues, although some degree of fat resorption is expected.

The final result depends on the recipient tissue, grafting technique, healing and individual biological factors.

Microfat refers to finely processed fat suitable for more delicate areas requiring precise volume restoration.

It is particularly useful in facial rejuvenation, where subtle improvements in volume and contour are desired.

Potential applications include:

• Tear trough and selected under-eye contour deficiencies
• Cheek volume restoration
• Facial contour refinement
• Correction of selected facial depressions
• Hand rejuvenation
• Selected scar-related contour irregularities

Microfat can provide volume restoration while allowing precise placement in appropriately selected anatomical areas.

The under-eye region requires particular expertise because of its delicate anatomy and the potential for visible irregularities.

Nanofat is a specially processed fat-derived tissue preparation used primarily for its potential regenerative and tissue-modulating effects rather than significant volume restoration.

The technique involves harvesting fat, followed by mechanical processing and filtration.

Unlike conventional structural fat grafting, nanofat processing disrupts mature fat cells. Consequently, it is not intended to provide substantial volumetric augmentation.

Nanofat contains a mixture of stromal and cellular components derived from adipose tissue. Its potential effects on skin quality, scar characteristics and tissue healing are being investigated.

Potential applications include:

• Selected acne scars
• Selected surgical scars
• Fine skin texture irregularities
• Skin quality improvement
• Selected areas of facial rejuvenation
• Certain reconstructive applications

Nanofat may be considered as a standalone treatment or in combination with other procedures, depending on the clinical indication.

Important: Nanofat should not be marketed as a guaranteed stem-cell treatment or a permanent skin rejuvenation solution. Clinical evidence remains evolving, and outcomes vary between patients and indications.

Full-face fat grafting is a natural rejuvenation technique that restores youthful contours using your own fat. The process involves gently harvesting fat from areas such as the abdomen or thighs, refining it, and reinjecting it into areas of facial hollowing or volume loss to achieve soft, balanced rejuvenation.

Using advanced micro- and nano-fat techniques, small droplets of purified fat are precisely layered into areas like the cheeks, temples, jawline, and under-eye region. These cells integrate with the surrounding tissue, improving not just volume but also skin texture and tone through their regenerative, stem-cell–rich properties.

• Restores natural facial volume and symmetry
• Improves skin quality and glow
• Long-lasting results compared with synthetic fillers
• Minimal risk of allergy or rejection since your own tissue is used
• Enhances definition while maintaining a soft, natural look

Mild swelling or bruising may last a few days, but most patients resume normal activity within a couple of days. Results evolve gradually as the grafted fat settles and integrates, offering lasting improvement in contour and skin health that continues to refine over months.

Unlike fillers that fade over time, fat grafting provides a living, permanent restoration that rejuvenates from within. It’s ideal for patients seeking a natural, regenerative, and long-term solution to facial aging — blending science, artistry, and subtlety for enduring beauty.

Full-face fat grafting can often be performed safely under local anaesthesia with light sedation, avoiding the need for general anaesthesia. This makes the procedure more comfortable and low-risk, with faster recovery and minimal downtime. Patients remain relaxed and pain-free throughout, and can return home the same day.

Your consultation includes a detailed assessment of your anatomy, skin quality, donor fat availability, medical history and expectations.

The treatment plan is customised according to your needs.

Fat is harvested from a suitable donor area, such as the abdomen, flanks or thighs.

Small punctures are used to introduce specialised liposuction instruments.

The harvested fat is processed using an appropriate technique.

Depending on the treatment, this may involve washing, filtration, centrifugation or specialised mechanical processing.

Structural fat, microfat and nanofat require different preparation approaches.

The prepared fat is carefully transferred to the recipient area using fine cannulas.

Small quantities are deposited in multiple tissue planes where appropriate, allowing the graft to establish a blood supply from surrounding tissues.

You will receive personalised postoperative instructions and follow-up appointments.

Recovery depends on the area treated, the volume transferred and whether other procedures were performed simultaneously.

Nano fat is an ultra-purified form of your own fat, processed to isolate its regenerative stem-cell–rich fraction. It rejuvenates the skin from within, improving texture, tone, and elasticity without adding volume.

Fat is gently harvested from areas like the abdomen or thighs, refined through filtration or emulsification, and converted into nano fat. This is then precisely injected into fine lines, scars, or dull skin to stimulate repair and collagen production.

Nano fat is used to rejuvenate the under-eye area, lips, cheeks, neck, and scars. It helps reduce fine lines, pigmentation, and sun damage while restoring a natural glow.

• Improves skin quality and radiance
• Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
• Enhances healing of scars and irregularities
• Long-lasting, natural results using your own tissue
• Minimal downtime and no foreign materials

Mild swelling or redness may last for a few days. As the cells integrate and stimulate collagen, skin quality continues to improve for several months, revealing smoother, more youthful skin.

Nano fat combines science and natural regeneration. It’s ideal for those seeking subtle, long-term rejuvenation — restoring skin health and luminosity without fillers or surgery.
