* Basic Information

* Consultation
# We decided to use fat grafting to add volume to the face, creating a more vibrant and bright impression.
* Plan
# Fat Grafting (Forehead, Temples, Nasolabial Folds)
* Post-operative Progress
# We naturally shaped the face, focusing on the sunken areas. A more voluminous and vibrant impression has been achieved compared to before.
# Fat grafting has the effect of smoothing out uneven facial lines and brightening the impression to make one look younger.
# At VIBE Plastic Surgery, we only use ‘fresh fat’. This is because frozen fat has a lower engraftment rate and a higher possibility of causing issues such as infection, inflammation, and calcification!
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!
