Fat Grafting

Fat Grafting — Volume Restoration With Your Own Tissue

Facial aging is driven not only by the descent and laxity of soft tissue, but by the progressive loss of volume in the structural fat compartments that give the youthful face its characteristic fullness, projection, and smooth surface contour. The hollowing of the temples, the deepening of the tear trough, the flattening of the mid-face, and the skeletonization of the periorbital region are among the most telling signs of facial aging — and among the least effectively addressed by skincare, injectables, or tension-based surgical techniques alone. Fat grafting addresses volume loss at its source, harvesting the patient's own adipose tissue from a donor site, processing it to isolate the viable fat fraction, and transferring it with precision into the facial compartments where volume has been lost. At Davidorf Eye Group, our fellowship-trained oculoplastic surgeons apply their comprehensive knowledge of periorbital and facial anatomy to fat grafting with a level of precision and restraint that distinguishes subspecialty practice — restoring structure where it has been lost, without overfilling, distorting, or altering the fundamental character of the face.
