Hand Fat Grafting

Description

Hand fat grafting is a minimally invasive rejuvenation procedure designed to restore lost volume on the back of the hands, where prominent veins, tendons, and bones can create an aged appearance. During the treatment, a surgeon gently harvests a small amount of the patient’s own fat—commonly from the abdomen, thighs, or flanks—using liposuction. The fat is then purified and carefully injected in thin layers beneath the skin of the hands to create a smoother, softer, and more youthful contour. Because the procedure uses the patient’s own tissue, it can provide a natural-looking result while also improving skin quality in some patients. In South Korea, hand fat grafting is typically performed as an outpatient procedure under local anesthesia with sedation or another anesthesia option recommended by the medical team. Treatment time varies depending on the amount of fat harvesting and grafting required, but patients can generally return home the same day. Temporary swelling, bruising, and tenderness may occur in both the donor and hand areas, and final results become more visible as healing progresses over the following weeks to months. As a portion of transferred fat may be naturally absorbed by the body, some patients may require an additional session to achieve their desired level of volume.

LABOM Plastic Surgery in Apgujeong offers a variety of advanced procedures designed to enhance beauty and restore confidence. Facial Contouring Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty (CarGel): This injection-based technique reshapes the nasal bridge and tip without incisions, using a patented "cartilage gel" made from the patient's own diced cartilage (from the ear, septum, or rib) mixed with fibrin extracted from their blood. With no synthetic implants and no nasal scarring, it delivers natural, undetectable results in under an hour, with about a week of recovery. Face and Neck Lift (Triple Lift): This proprietary three-layer lifting technique treats the skin, SMAS (muscle fascia), and deep fat layer simultaneously, repositioning sagging cheek fat and tightening underlying structures to correct facial and neck sagging, deep wrinkles, and volume loss. Performed under sedation with local anesthesia, it typically takes 3–4 hours with 7–14 days of recovery and natural, long-lasting results. Eyelid Surgery Blepharoplasty: This procedure addresses drooping upper and lower eyelids caused by age-related loss of skin elasticity, using either an incisional technique (removing excess skin for significant sagging) or a less invasive natural adhesion method with small incisions and medical-grade thread. It restores a refreshed appearance and can relieve vision obstruction caused by sagging skin. Double Eyelid Surgery: This procedure creates a natural eyelid crease for patients with monolids, using one of three techniques — a natural adhesion method with a micro-incision, a non-incisional method using tiny openings and sutures, or a full incisional approach — chosen based on the individual's eye characteristics. It can also correct ptosis (drooping eyelids) at the same time. Fat Grafting & Liposuction Facial Fat Grafting: This autologous procedure harvests excess fat from donor sites such as the abdomen, thighs, or buttocks, purifies it via centrifugation, and injects it into volume-deficient areas of the face to correct sunken foreheads, deep nasolabial folds, and overall volume loss. It's designed as a natural alternative to implants, taking 1–2 hours under sleep sedation with about a week of recovery. Facial Liposuction: This procedure uses micro-cannula technology to precisely remove excess fat from the cheeks and chin while stimulating collagen production beneath the skin, often combined with V-line contour lifting to tighten skin and prevent sagging. It corrects double chins, undefined jawlines, and cheek sagging, with a 1-hour procedure time and 2–3 days of recovery. Each procedure at LABOM Plastic Surgery is customized to meet individual patient needs and aims to deliver natural-looking and satisfying results. Their experienced surgeons and state-of-the-art facilities ensure a high standard of care and safety for every patient.
