Facial Fat Transfer in Bakersfield, Fresno, and Stockton
Looking to restore lost volume, smooth out wrinkles, or rejuvenate your appearance without undergoing invasive surgery? Beautologie Cosmetic Surgery & Medical Aesthetics offers facial fat transfer in Bakersfield, Fresno, and Stockton—a natural, long-lasting solution that enhances facial contours using your body’s own fat. This advanced procedure provides a youthful and refreshed look with results that feel and look natural.
What Is Facial Fat Transfer?
Facial fat transfer, also known as microlipoinjection or facial fat grafting, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to restore facial volume, smooth out imperfections, and improve overall skin texture. The procedure involves harvesting fat from areas like the abdomen, thighs, or hips and then strategically injecting it into facial areas that have lost volume due to aging or other factors. Unlike synthetic dermal fillers, facial fat transfer uses your own tissue, reducing the risk of allergic reactions and providing longer-lasting, natural-looking results.

Our expert surgeons in Bakersfield, Fresno, and Stockton specialize in this advanced technique, ensuring that each patient receives a personalized approach tailored to their unique facial structure and aesthetic goals.
Benefits of Facial Fat Transfer
Natural & Long-Lasting Results
Since the procedure uses your own fat, there is no risk of allergic reactions or rejection. Additionally, results tend to last significantly longer compared to synthetic fillers.
Minimally Invasive
Facial fat transfer offers a rejuvenated appearance without the need for major surgery, such as a facelift or brow lift, making it an excellent alternative for those looking for a more natural approach to anti-aging treatments.
Versatile Enhancement
This procedure can restore facial volume, plump lips, contour cheeks, and smooth out deep wrinkles and fine lines. It is also highly effective in treating acne scars and other facial depressions.
Dual Benefits
In addition to enhancing facial features, facial fat transfer also helps contour the body by removing unwanted fat from donor areas such as the stomach, thighs, or hips. This dual-benefit approach allows for both facial rejuvenation and body sculpting in a single procedure.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Facial Fat Transfer?
Good candidates for facial fat transfer should:
- Be in overall good health
- Have sufficient fat in donor areas for harvesting
- Desire a natural, long-lasting solution to facial volume loss
- Have realistic expectations about the procedure and its results
During your consultation at Beautologie, our experienced surgeons will assess your facial structure, skin condition, and medical history to determine if this procedure is the right choice for you.
The Facial Fat Transfer Procedure
The facial fat transfer procedure consists of three primary steps:
Step 1: Fat Extraction
Using gentle liposuction techniques, fat is carefully removed from areas such as the stomach, thighs, or hips. This process is performed with precision to ensure minimal trauma and optimal fat cell survival.
Step 2: Purification Process
Once the fat is harvested, it undergoes a purification process to separate healthy, undamaged fat cells from unwanted fluids and debris. This ensures that only the best quality fat is used for reinjection.
Step 3: Fat Injection
The purified fat is strategically injected into the targeted facial areas, such as the cheeks, lips, temples, jawline, or under-eye hollows. Our surgeons use advanced techniques to ensure smooth, natural-looking enhancements that complement your unique facial features.
This procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation for optimal comfort. Patients seeking additional cosmetic treatments, such as liposuction or a tummy tuck, may opt to combine procedures for a more comprehensive transformation.
What to Expect During Recovery
Recovery from facial fat transfer is relatively quick compared to more invasive surgical procedures. Patients can expect mild swelling, bruising, and tenderness in both the donor and injection sites for the first few days. Most individuals can return to normal activities within a week, although strenuous exercise should be avoided for at least two weeks.
Final results become visible within a few months as the transferred fat settles and integrates into the facial tissues. Since a portion of the injected fat may be naturally absorbed by the body, some patients may require a touch-up procedure for optimal, long-lasting results.
