The Philosophy
“To restore true, enduring youth, we must look beyond synthetic gels. Your own adipose stem cells act as the fountain of youth, biologically rewinding the clock.”
Dr Hassan
Dr. Hassan Soueid Lead Surgeon

Facial aging is characterized by a significant, progressive loss of deep fat pads. The temples hollow, the cheeks flatten, and the under-eyes become shadowed. While dermal fillers offer an excellent temporary solution, Fat Injection (Micro-Fat Grafting) represents the absolute pinnacle of permanent, natural facial volumization. At Kensington Cosmetic Clinic, we harvest your own adipose tissue, refine it to its purest state, and utilize it as a living, breathing filler to structurally revolutionize your facial architecture.

Crucially, fat tissue is one of the body's most abundant sources of Mesenchymal Stem Cells. When this 'liquid gold' is intricately injected into the face using micro-droplet techniques, it doesn’t merely add volume. The stem cells trigger a profound regenerative cascade across the entire dermis. Patients consistently observe not only beautifully restored contours, but an exponential leap in skin thickness, luminosity, and the complete eradication of crepey texture.

Holistic Facial Architecture

Fat Injection & Detail

Because this procedure relies on living tissue integration, the stunning curves and restored fullness are permanent. This deeply regenerative therapy is highly recommended as a standalone full-face volumizer, or overwhelmingly paired with a Facelift to simultaneously correct both skin laxity and volumetric hollowing.

Step by Step

Your Patient Journey

01 / The Consultation

Volumetric Mapping

Dr. Hassan meticulously analyzes the areas of facial deflation. We identify a suitable donor site—typically the abdomen or inner thigh—to harvest the precise amount of required fat.

02 / Preparation

Sterile Harvest

In our state-of-the-art surgical suite, local anesthesia or light sedation ensures profound comfort. The donor site is thoroughly numbed for gentle, low-pressure extraction.

03 / The Procedure

Purify & Graft

The extracted fat undergoes an elite purification process in a centrifuge. The golden, stem-cell-rich micro-fat is then painstakingly grafted into the facial voids via blunt cannula.

04 / Recovery & Aftercare

The Integration Phase

Facial swelling will be significant for the first week as the body works to establish a vital blood supply to the new fat cells. Absolute avoidance of pressure on the face is mandatory during this integration.

Frequently
Asked
Questions

Ask a specific question
Typically, between 60% and 70% of the ultra-purified fat will permanently survive and integrate. Dr. Hassan masterfully slightly 'over-corrects' the volume during surgery to perfectly accommodate for this natural reabsorption.
Yes. Once the grafted fat takes root, it behaves exactly as it did in the donor site. Significant body weight fluctuations will invariably cause the facial fat cells to expand or shrink.
It is not necessarily 'better', but different. Hyaluronic acid fillers are temporary and excellent for sharp, bone-like contouring (like the jawline). Fat transfer is profoundly superior for soft, permanent, global facial volumization.
While the volume is immediate, the profound regenerative stem-cell effects strictly affecting skin texture and radiance usually begin to manifest beautifully around the 3 to 6-month mark.
