Yes, I have done this in the office with local anesthesia and it works well. Some patients will need 2 or 3 grafting sessions depending on how they respond to the procedure. Good Luck!

Elizabeth Kim, MD · Answer

Fat transfer can be an excellent solution for volume loss issues.  Depending on the size of the depression, you may need more than one session of fat grafting.  If it is a small area, your plastic surgeon may be able to perform the procedure in the office under local anesthesia.
