What Is a Nonsurgical Facial Fat Transfer?
When an individual ages or when they gain then lose weight, they sometimes lose the desired shape in specific body features due to loss of volume. One way to regain that lost volume is through an advanced cosmetic technique known as a fat transfer. A fat transfer extracts fat from a section on the body and reinstates it into a specific place that could use additional volume. Fat transfer procedures can be used on large areas such as the buttocks or breasts or on delicate and smaller areas such as the lips and cheeks. Autologous fat transfers are generally chosen when an individual desires a natural enhancement versus using implants or fillers. Tuscaloosa, AL, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ross Bunch incorporates the most effective liposuction and injection methods for performing fat transfers. This cosmetic enhancement at Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa creates smooth and beautiful outcomes.
How Is Facial Fat Transfer Performed?
Nonsurgical facial fat transfer is a refined procedure that uses your own fat to restore volume and contour to your face without the need for extensive surgery. The process begins with the gentle collection of fat through a minimally invasive technique, often using liposuction. This fat is then purified and carefully injected into areas of the face that have lost volume, such as the cheeks or under the eyes. The procedure is designed to enhance natural features and achieve a youthful, refreshed appearance with minimal downtime. Ideal for those seeking a subtle yet effective rejuvenation, nonsurgical facial fat transfer offers long-lasting results with a natural look.
What Are the Benefits of a Nonsurgical Facial Fat Transfer?
Nonsurgical facial fat transfer offers several benefits for enhancing facial volume and contours naturally, including:
- Natural-looking results with your own fat, ensuring a harmonious appearance
- Minimal downtime and recovery compared to invasive procedures
- No need for implants or synthetic fillers, reducing the risk of allergic reactions
- Long-lasting effects as the transferred fat integrates with existing tissue
- Versatility in treating various facial areas, such as the cheeks, under-eye hollows, and nasolabial folds
Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa Reviews
This surgeon is amazing! Very skilled in what he does, very knowledgeable, and his staff is very helpful and very very professional. He was able to get my procedure covered by my medical insurance, which cut his payment down to very little! But you would think I paid $1 million based on the treatment, and the courtesy and concern that all have demonstrated during my procedure and recovery. I traveled from out of state to have this procedure and honestly, I don’t think I would’ve found a greater experience than I found at Plastic Surgery Of Tuscaloosa and Doctor Bunch! He definitely cares about what you care about!!!
Dr. Bunch has proven his self noteworthy with me. He has the ability to transform lives as I know it! I suffer from a metabolic syndrome and even with diet and exercise I would have not been able to alleviate the excessive fat and skin from my body. I lost 65 pounds and due to my apron developing a rash and no relief of cream, it was deemed medically necessary to have the excess skin and fat removed from my abdomen. Dr. Bunch made me feel comfortable and like family. He ensured he would take care of me and he did. I’m truly thankful for his gift of surgery on my body because he truly transformed and addressed the health issues I was dealing with. I hope this encourages anyone who is searching for relief to try him. You have found the right answer you have been looking for!
Dr. Bunch listens to your concerns and is nice. I’ve experienced speaking with another plastic surgeon and he was rude and made me feel worse about myself, but Dr. Bunch is very professional but also helps you realize what your concerns are and makes me feel better about myself and the results I can achieve. I would definitely refer him as your Plastic Surgeon.

Ideal Candidates
Men and women who wish to have additional volume in areas of the body that appear deflated and flat may be the right candidates for a fat transfer. This treatment is even more advantageous because it offers an autologous way to produce results by incorporating the patient's fat tissue. This way, there is little concern for rejection. Patients at Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa considering this procedure need to be at a healthy weight and have fat to extract for the transfer.
What to Expect
Following this procedure, you will go through a healing phase. Remember there are at least two sites on the body that require healing: the extraction area and injection location. The recovery process make take longer if a larger place on the body was addressed. For example, a fat transfer for lip enlargement will typically only need a 1 – 2-day healing period whereas a transfer to a more vast body part, such as the butt or breasts, can take much longer. The sites will appear red and slightly swollen, but the outcomes can be seen almost immediately. Another perk is the area where fat was extracted will appear slimmer. Fat grafting yields beautiful and lasting results, but there will be some resorption back to the body. For some, another transfer may be needed later on. There is almost no scarring associated with this treatment.
