As two experienced plastic surgeons, we have described in detail many different uses of microfat grafting in aesthetic surgery. In our practice, the most common applications include facial rejuvenation, dorsal hand rejuvenation, and buttock enhancement (popularly known as the Brazilian Butt Lift). Microfat grafting has become a cornerstone of our approach to achieving natural, harmonious results for our patients.
Beyond these aesthetic uses, microfat grafting has significant reconstructive applications that deserve attention. This technique can restore a more normal surface area and texture in cases where excessive fat removal from a prior aesthetic procedure or an injury has led to contour irregularities. The ability to use the body’s own fat as a filler makes it an invaluable tool in achieving restoration and symmetry.
