Sculpt, Restore & Enhance — Using Your Own Natural Volume
Loss of volume is one of the most visible signs of aging — whether it appears in the face, hands, breasts, or body. Fat grafting (also known as fat transfer) is a minimally invasive technique that uses your own fat to restore fullness, soften contours, and enhance symmetry with subtle, long-lasting results.
At Toronto Dermaplastic Surgery, Dr. Reza Ahmadzadeh uses advanced fat grafting techniques to naturally refine and rejuvenate your features — creating results that are smooth, balanced, and uniquely you.
- Naturally enhance volume in the cheeks, lips, jawline, or under-eye hollows
- Smooth facial lines or folds without synthetic fillers
- Restore fullness to hands or areas affected by weight loss
- Enhance breast shape or correct contour irregularities
- Sculpt the buttocks (as in Brazilian Butt Lift, or BBL)
- Minimize waste — harvest fat from areas you’d like to slim (e.g., abdomen, thighs)
- Board-certified plastic surgeon with advanced training in facial and body sculpting
- Artistic eye for balance, proportion, and symmetry
- Use of refined fat purification and injection techniques for optimal survival and softness
- Personalized consultations to create a custom enhancement plan
- Private, accredited surgical facility in the heart of Toronto

- Face – Cheeks, temples, under eyes, nasolabial folds, chin, and lips
- Breasts – To correct asymmetry, minor volume loss, or irregularities
- Hands – To restore smoothness and youthfulness
- Buttocks (BBL) – For natural-looking enhancement and shape
- Post-liposuction irregularities – To fill in indentations or uneven texture
- Step 1: Fat Harvesting – Fat is gently removed via liposuction from the abdomen, thighs, flanks, or other donor areas
- Step 2: Purification – The fat is processed and refined to isolate high-quality fat cells
- Step 3: Injection – The fat is carefully injected in micro-layers to sculpt natural volume
Procedure time: 1 to 3 hours (depending on areas treated)
Anesthesia: Local with sedation or general anesthesia
Recovery:
- Mild swelling and bruising for 7–14 days
- Return to work in 3–7 days depending on treatment area
- Final results visible in 2–3 months as swelling resolves and fat stabilizes

How long do fat grafting results last?
Once the transferred fat has established a blood supply (usually by 3 months), it can last years — often permanently. About 60–80% of the transferred fat typically survives.
Is fat grafting better than fillers?
Fat grafting offers longer-lasting, more natural volume with no synthetic material. It’s ideal for those seeking subtle, soft results and volume correction beyond what fillers can offer.
Can it be combined with other procedures?
Yes — fat grafting is often combined with facelifts, eyelid surgery, breast lift, or BBL for a more comprehensive rejuvenation.
Fat grafting is one of the most elegant, natural ways to restore beauty and balance — using your own body’s resources.
