Nasolabial fold fat grafting

Image
  Before undergoing fat grafting surgery, many customers wonder if one session of fat grafting is enough to achieve a permanent result.     Fat grafting is a cosmetic procedure that transfers fat from one part of the body to another. One thing that every patient should know is that not all transferred fat is engrafted. Some of it dissolves. Therefore, it is necessary to undergo a second procedure. Depending on the body constitution, there might arise a need for the third session as well.     The fat transferred to the mouth area dissolves relatively faster than in other areas. The reason is that we use and move our mouths very often.     That is why we recommend that you wait for some time after the first fat grafting and then decide on the additional sessions. Doing so helps maintain the result longer.
