Fat Transfer in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
Did you know that you can use the fat from your own body to add volume to wrinkles, folds, cheekbones, your chin, and the hollows under your eyes? People choose fat transfer in Harrisburg for many reasons:
- There is no potential for allergic reaction because you are using fat cells from your own body.
- The results often last for many years.
- Results look natural.
- Fat transfer can be used in a variety of locations to recontour your face and provide definition to your cheeks and chin.

Focused for You
Our doctors have specialized training and experience that helps them deliver on your cosmetic surgery goals.
The Procedure
Under local anesthesia, liposuction will be used to extract excess fat from your thighs. The fat is then injected into the areas that require more volume such as the cheeks, chin, or deep creases. In some facial areas such as the lips, more than one injection may be needed.
Recovery and Results
There is very little downtime required after fat transfer facial rejuvenation in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The results look natural and typically last from several months to many years before retreatment is necessary. Reinjected fat lasts longer in larger areas of non-movement, so it is very successful for the correction of sunken cheeks as this area does not move as often.
