What Is PRP Fat Grafting?

Purified fat, combined with platelet-rich plasma.

Fat is harvested from areas with excess fat, such as the abdomen or thighs, purified, and selectively injected into areas requiring additional volume. PRP is incorporated to support the transferred fat and the surrounding tissue environment. Because the material is your own tissue, integration is gradual rather than immediate — which is part of what makes the result look natural.

Potential Benefits

What the procedure offers.

	What it means in practice
Natural volume restoration	Volume is restored where it has been lost, using your own tissue
Use of your own tissue	An autologous alternative for patients who prefer to avoid synthetic fillers
Personalized contour enhancement	Fat is selectively injected into areas requiring additional volume
Improved facial harmony	Areas are treated in relation to overall facial balance

Who May Benefit?

Candidates are evaluated individually.

You may be suitable if you

Prefer autologous volume restoration
Have facial volume loss
Desire a softer, fuller facial appearance
Prefer an alternative to synthetic fillers
Seek natural-looking facial rejuvenation

A consultation determines your plan

A donor site is required, so fat must be available to harvest
The amount of transferred fat that persists varies between individuals
Swelling and temporary asymmetry are expected early on
Volume loss and sagging are different problems with different answers

A consultation and examination are required to determine whether fat grafting is appropriate and which areas should be treated.

Recovery and Aftercare

Recovery varies between individuals.

Swelling

Swelling is common during the initial healing period.

Bruising

Bruising is common at both the donor and treated areas.

Temporary Asymmetry

Temporary asymmetry is common as swelling settles and the graft integrates.

Personalized Instructions

Personalized postoperative instructions and follow-up care are provided.

Recovery varies between individuals, and tissue integration is gradual. Your surgeon provides a personalized timeline.

Fat grafting is not filler you can take back.

Frequently Asked

PRP Fat Grafting in Busan
— your questions, answered.

What is PRP fat grafting?

It is an autologous fat transfer procedure that combines purified fat with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to restore facial volume while supporting tissue regeneration, using the patient's own fat together with PRP preparation techniques.

How is it different from dermal fillers?

Fat grafting uses your own tissue rather than a synthetic filler, which is why it may suit patients who prefer an alternative to synthetic fillers. Transferred fat integrates gradually rather than providing an immediate fixed volume.

How long do results last?

The graft integrates gradually, and the amount of transferred fat that persists varies between individuals. Your surgeon should explain expected longevity and whether additional sessions may be considered.

Which areas can be treated?

Common treatment areas include the forehead, temples, cheeks, under-eye area, chin, and other facial regions with volume loss.

Can fat grafting be combined with other facial procedures?

Combined procedures are considered depending on your anatomy and goals — particularly since volume loss and tissue sagging are different problems. Whether a combination is appropriate is determined during consultation.

Where is the fat taken from?

Fat is harvested from areas with excess fat, such as the abdomen or thighs, then purified and separated before use.

What does the PRP do?

PRP is prepared from the patient's own blood and incorporated to support the transferred fat and the surrounding tissue environment.

What is recovery like?

Swelling, bruising, and temporary asymmetry are common during the initial healing period. Recovery varies between individuals, and personalized postoperative instructions and follow-up care are provided.

Who may benefit from fat grafting?

It may be appropriate for individuals who prefer autologous volume restoration, have facial volume loss, desire a softer fuller appearance, prefer an alternative to synthetic fillers, and seek natural-looking rejuvenation.
