Natural Fat Transfer
Conveniently located to serve Charleston and Mt. Pleasant
Are you looking for a natural approach to facial rejuvenation? Dr. Sonny O specializes in natural fat transfer in Mount Pleasant, which restores lost facial volume using your body’s fat. This technique delivers long-lasting results without relying on synthetic fillers, helping you achieve a refreshed and youthful appearance.
What Is Natural Fat Transfer?
Natural fat transfer is a minimally invasive procedure that uses your fat to enhance facial contours and diminish signs of aging. It is an excellent cosmetic treatment for non-surgical facial rejuvenation without injectables and cosmetic fillers. If you want to erase the damage of laugh lines, smile lines, crow’s feet, or acne scars, fat can be transferred from other areas of your body to be safely injected in the area you want through facial fat grafting.
When to Consider Natural Fat Transfer
- Do you have facial areas full of creases or sunken depressions?
- Are you weary of temporary fillers or desire a long-term form of correction?
- Do you have scars that you wish to have revised to minimize their appearance?
Benefits of Natural Fat Transfer
Fat grafting offers several benefits:
- Volume restoration in targeted areas of the face
- Long-lasting, natural-looking results
- Minimally invasive procedure with no synthetic materials
- Dual benefit of body contouring through liposuction
Common Areas Treated with Natural Fat Transfer
Natural fat transfer is commonly used to restore volume in areas like the cheeks, under-eye hollows, temples, and jawline. It can also smooth fine lines around the mouth and enhance lip fullness. This versatile procedure addresses multiple facial concerns for a more balanced, youthful appearance.
Ideal Candidates
You might be an ideal candidate for fat transfer if you:
- Want to improve facial volume and address fine lines or wrinkles
- Prefer a natural approach to aesthetic enhancement
- Have sufficient fat deposits in areas like the abdomen or thighs for harvesting

Your Consultation
Patients interested in the benefits of a facial fat transfer must schedule a consultation at our Mount Pleasant practice beforehand to learn more about it. This visit will let them know what to expect regarding the fat transfer procedure, how they can best prepare for it, and what to do regarding aftercare.
During the consultation, Dr. Sonny O will ask the patient about their treatment goals and ask questions about their medical history, including any medications they take. He will also answer any patients’ questions regarding the procedure and any additional treatments that will complement it.
The Procedure Explained
A natural fat transfer involves using liposuction to harvest excess fat from areas of the body like the abdomen, hips, and thighs. The harvested fat is then processed to remove dead or damaged fat cells. Next, the fat is carefully injected into the areas of the face where age signs are apparent to achieve your desired volume restoration.
Natural Fat Transfer Aftercare
Patients should rest as much as possible after their facial fat transfer procedure. They can expect swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort over the next few days. These side effects typically subside within a few days.
While most patients can return to light activities after a week, full recovery may take a few weeks, depending on the extent of the treatment. Dr. Sonny O will provide personalized aftercare instructions to help you heal comfortably.

The cost of a natural fat transfer in Mount Pleasant, SC, can differ from patient to patient.
