A 25-year-old lady from Huizhou traveled to HANFEI Plastic Surgery Hospital for autologous fat facial filling,
aiming to fix her flat cheeks that made her look “serious” to her dessert shop’s customers. As the owner of a cozy dessert shop,
she greeted every customer with a smile—but her thin cheeks made her look stern, even when she was excited to recommend new treats. Regulars often mentioned she “looked too busy to relax,” which made her want a more approachable look. She preferred autologous fat filling over temporary fillers because she wanted long-lasting results that would move naturally when she laughed or talked.
We planned the procedure to fit her shop schedule: first, we extracted a small amount of fat from her outer thighs (where she had a slight excess) using gentle liposuction—this area was chosen because the fat cells are more resilient and have a higher survival rate. The fat was purified using a low-speed centrifuge to remove impurities, then injected into her cheeks using a “micro-droplet” technique to ensure even distribution and avoid lumps. The entire procedure took about 1 hour and 30 minutes, and she had mild swelling on her cheeks for 5 days—she covered it with light makeup and reopened her shop after 3 days, telling regulars she’d “had a minor skin treatment.”
By the end of the second month, the fat cells had fully integrated, and her cheeks had a natural, healthy fullness. When she smiled, her cheeks lifted gently, making her look warmer and more welcoming. She sent me a photo of herself handing a cake to a little customer, saying, “Customers now stay to chat more! One regular even said I look ‘happier lately’—no one has guessed it’s fat filling. My shop’s atmosphere feels more relaxed too, which is exactly what I wanted.”
