The removal of fat from one part of the body and injected into another area is known as fat transplantation.  The lips and cheeks are two of the most common body sites for fat transplantation.  The popularity of this procedure has risen recently due to the refined technique and improved equipment.  This procedure is very safe with virtually no side effects.

As part of the aging process, the skin loses its elasticity and the fat layer under the skin diminishes, resulting in a wrinkled less full appearance.  Fat transplantation can reverse this appearance by smoothing facial lines and restoring the faces original contours and fullness.  This technique is often combined with laser resurfacing to further tighten the skin.
