What Is Facial Fat Grafting?
While dermal fillers are a great option for restoring volume, they aren't the only choice we offer for facial enhancement at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery. Another popular solution we perform is facial fat grafting (or fat transfer), an innovative procedure that uses fat harvested from your body to minimize signs of aging and bring back some youthful plumpness to your features. With facial fat grafting, you can take years off of your face and remove unwanted fat in one convenient procedure. To learn more about how facial fat grafting can give you naturally fuller features, schedule a consultation at our plastic surgery practice in Chicago, IL today.
How Is Facial Fat Grafting Performed?
Facial fat transfer is a process involving two steps. First, our providers will remove stubborn fat from your flanks, hips, abdomen, or other parts of your body using liposuction. This will be done with twilight or local anesthesia for your safety and comfort. After removing the fat, we'll purify it before gently injecting it into targeted areas around your face to achieve your desired results. Popular targets for facial fat transfer include the cheeks, lips, and under the eyes. During your consultation, we'll determine if you're a candidate for facial fat grafting and discuss which areas of your face may benefit from this treatment at our Chicago, IL office.

Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery Reviews
Over the past two years I have worked with Dr. Schierle to achieve my postpartum 'glow up' and couldn't be more thrilled with my results. Both my chin lipo and upper bleph have left me feeling refreshed, confident and more youthful. I had both procedures in office under local anesthesia and had no issues. Not only does Dr. Schierle care about the physical result of his work but he also cares deeply about how the patient feels, which I experienced first hand during my 3 and 4 month post op appointments. I highly recommend Dr. Schierle for your plastic surgery needs- he's exceptional!

Dr. Moradian is one of a kind. Not only is he a talented surgeon but he has a great bedside manner. I am very pleased with the outcome of my procedure. I recommend Dr. Moradian very highly!
Dr. Moradian is very welcoming, professional, and talented and provides excellent care. I recommend him to anybody considering cosmetic surgery.
I love how I look and feel—that is obvious, that is the stuff that shows to the world. But what Dr. Schierle and Monika Cieszynski did for me was really so much more than that. I have struggled with loose skin and a large belly my whole life. What they REALLY did for me was free up space in my mind. I cannot put accurately into words what this does to a person. I am free. I have so much gratitude and appreciation. My body is strong and looks great—but my mind—what it did for my mind is quite profound.
