Facial Fat Grafting
Fat harvested with a blunt needle and syringe is processed, cleansed and centrifuged, then placed in small amounts where your face has deflated. Donor site, volume and grafted areas differ for every face.
Facial fat transfer in New York with Dr. Leonard Grossman uses your own fat, not synthetic filler, to restore the volume your face has lost. A pioneer of Organic Plastic Surgery who has performed facial fat grafting since 1993, he maps each treatment against pictures of how you used to look, works under twilight sedation and sends you home the same day, with no compression garments or narcotics.
Fat transfer on its own or combined with other treatments, all performed at Dr. Grossman’s Brooklyn practice.
Fat harvested with a blunt needle and syringe is processed, cleansed and centrifuged, then placed in small amounts where your face has deflated. Donor site, volume and grafted areas differ for every face.
When lines or skin quality also need attention, fat grafting can be combined with Botox, fillers, Lutronic CO2 laser resurfacing or skin care.
For loose skin plus hollowing, a SMAS or deep plane facelift tightens the face while fat transfer restores volume, with both planned well in advance.
Facial fat transfer replaces lost volume with fat from your own body. Dr. Leonard Grossman believes faces age mainly by deflating, not by sagging, so he refills the cheeks, temples, jawline and under-eyes rather than pulling skin. Under twilight sedation, fat is harvested gently, purified to protect its stem cells and placed precisely; most patients see minimal bruising and swelling that settles over about two weeks.

He pioneered calf augmentation with fat grafting in 1995 and, by his practice's count, has performed more than 4,500 calf augmentations.

Fat transfer cost varies significantly by geographic location and by your anatomy, so Dr. Grossman quotes each case individually. The quote reflects how many facial areas are treated, how much fat is harvested and from where (full-face cases in his gallery used roughly 48 to 108 cc), and any added procedure. Because the procedure is outpatient, there is no hospital stay to pay for, and financing is available through Cherry and Prosper Healthcare Lending.
Ask Dr. Grossman how much volume you have lost and how fat can replace it.
