Orange County Fat Transfer

Fat transfer, also known as fat grafting, is an advanced, natural way to enhance your face or body using your own fat. At Cara Plastic Surgery in Orange County, Dr. David Kahng performs precision fat transfer procedures to restore volume, smooth contours, and sculpt youthful curves.

What Is Fat Transfer?

Fat transfer is a two-part cosmetic procedure in which fat is harvested from one area of your body (such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs) and then strategically injected into another area that needs volume or reshaping. This dual-benefit procedure allows you to remove unwanted fat and enhance another area with long-lasting, natural results. At Cara Plastic Surgery, fat transfer is performed using FDA-approved devices in our AAAASF-accredited facility, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience.

Aesthetic Applications of Fat Transfer

Dr. Kahng uses fat transfer to create subtle, elegant results across multiple areas of the body. Popular treatments include:

Facial Fat Transfer

Fat is used to:

Fill hollow cheeks or temples
Smooth smile lines and marionette folds
Soften acne scars or other indentations
Restore youthful volume to lips and under eyes

Facial fat transfer offers a longer-lasting alternative to dermal fillers and is completely natural.

Buttocks Augmentation (Brazilian Butt Lift)

Excess fat is removed from stubborn areas and used to create:

Fuller, rounder buttocks
A more lifted silhouette
Balanced, feminine curves

This technique also contours the waist or thighs during the harvesting process.

Breast Enhancement or Reconstruction

Fat grafting can:

Enhance breast volume subtly
Correct irregularities or asymmetry
Help reconstruct breasts after surgery or implant removal

Hand Rejuvenation

Aging hands often show hollowing, wrinkles, and bulging veins. Fat transfer:

Plumps and smooths the skin
Masks veins and tendons
Restores a more youthful look
