FAQ about Facial Fat Transfer in Turkey

What are the requirements for pre-procedure preparation?

Before undergoing a facial fat transfer, also known as fat grafting or lipofilling, in Turkey, certain preparations are essential:

  • Consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and evaluate your suitability for the procedure.
  • Preoperative tests to ensure you are fit for surgery and anaesthesia.
  • Patients are typically advised to stop smoking and avoid certain medications that can increase bleeding, such as aspirin and anti-inflammatory drugs.

How long does the facial fat transfer typically take?

The procedure usually lasts between one to three hours, depending on the extent of the area being treated and the amount of fat being transferred.

What is the expected recovery time after the surgery?

Recovery time can vary, but most patients can resume normal activities within a week. Complete recovery, where all swelling and bruising have subsided, generally occurs within two to three weeks.

What are the possible risks and complications of a facial fat transfer?

While generally safe, the procedure can have potential risks such as:

  • Swelling and bruising
  • Infection
  • Irregularities in skin contour
  • Over or under correction of treated areas

What kind of post-operative care will be required?

Post-operative care may include:

  • Avoiding strenuous activities for a few weeks to facilitate healing.
  • Regular follow-up examinations to monitor the progress of recovery.

When can I return to work or resume normal activities after the facial fat transfer?

Most patients are able to return to work and resume normal activities within one week post-operation, depending on the nature of their job and the extent of the procedure.

How many follow-up appointments are needed after the facial fat transfer?

Typically, several follow-up visits are scheduled within the first six months after the procedure to ensure proper healing and satisfactory results.

Will I need to take specific medications or follow a special diet post-surgery?

Pain management may involve prescribed medications, and maintaining a healthy diet can help speed up recovery. However, no specific diet is usually required unless advised by the surgeon.

What should I do if I experience complications or unusual symptoms after the facial fat transfer?

If any complications or unusual symptoms occur, such as excessive swelling, pain, or signs of infection, it is crucial to contact your surgeon immediately for assessment and possible intervention.

What are the costs involved in this facial fat transfer, including additional expenses?

The cost of facial fat transfer in Turkey can range from £1,800 to £2,125, not including potential additional expenses such as travel, accommodation, and personal expenses.

How do I manage pain and discomfort during the recovery process?

Pain and discomfort can typically be managed with prescribed painkillers and by following the surgeon’s advice on care during recovery.

Are there any restrictions on physical activities or travel post-operation?

Patients are generally advised to avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting for a few weeks. Travel can be resumed once the immediate recovery phase is complete, typically within 7-10 days, but should be discussed with your surgeon.

Can I expect any visible scarring or other lasting effects from the facial fat transfer?

Facial fat transfer aims to be minimally invasive with little to no visible scarring. Any small marks from fat harvesting are usually well-hidden and fade over time.

Choosing a reputable clinic and experienced surgeons like Dr. Leyla Arvas or Dr. Ali Nurhan Özbaba in Turkey ensures the highest standards of care and expertise in facial rejuvenation procedures.
