Many UK patients see a \u00a31,850 facial fat transfer and assume the saving must come from somewhere. It doesn’t. The gap is economic \u2014 a favourable exchange rate, lower overheads and bundled logistics \u2014 with the procedure led by a consultant in a JCI-accredited hospital using CE-marked materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The comparison is rarely like-for-like, either. A UK quote usually lists the surgeon’s fee and then adds theatre and follow-ups, which is how a \u00a34,000 headline climbs higher. Our price folds it all into one all-inclusive figure, fixed before you travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The appeal of facial fat transfer<\/a> is that it uses your own tissue, so there’s no allergic reaction and the result looks and ages naturally. The honest caveat is that not all of the fat survives \u2014 typically a little over half settles for good, and the rest reabsorbs over the first months, which is why we plan conservatively and discuss a top-up if you want more. It’s our “rejuvenation, not alteration” approach \u2014 restoring the volume time has taken rather than changing your face \u2014 and your aftercare follows you home to the UK rather than ending at the airport.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"treatment_name":"Fat Transfer to Face","_description":" Quick summary<\/strong>: The facial fat transfer cost in Turkey<\/strong> at AKM Clinic starts at \u00a31,850<\/strong>, against roughly \u00a34,000 to \u00a36,000 at a private UK clinic. Fat transfer uses your own purified fat to restore lost volume in the cheeks, temples and under-eyes \u2014 a natural, lasting alternative to fillers. Every quote is all-inclusive: surgeon-led planning, your operation in a JCI-accredited hospital, hotel, VIP transfers, medication and follow-up.

Privately in the UK facial fat transfer typically runs \u00a34,000\u2013\u00a36,000.<\/p>\n","question_2":"How is fat transfer different from dermal fillers?","answer_2":" Fat uses your own tissue for a permanent, natural result; fillers are off-the-shelf and temporary. Fat needs gentle harvesting first, but it lasts.<\/p>\n","question_3":"How much of the transferred fat survives \u2014 is it permanent?","answer_3":" Typically a little over half settles permanently; the rest reabsorbs in the first months, which is why a top-up is sometimes planned.<\/p>\n","question_4":"Where is the fat taken from?","answer_4":" Usually the tummy or thighs via gentle liposuction, so you get a little contouring there too.<\/p>\n","question_5":"Can fat transfer be combined with a facelift?","answer_5":" Yes, often. A lift repositions tissue but doesn't replace lost volume, so adding fat restores youthful fullness for a more complete result.<\/p>\n Volume work is often planned alongside other contouring steps: a chin augmentation<\/a> to define the lower face, buccal fat removal<\/a> where the mid-face is heavy rather than hollow, or a lip lift<\/a> for a shortened upper lip. Each has its own all-inclusive price list you can compare before deciding.<\/p>\n","question_6":"Can fat transfer be used under the eyes, and does that change the price?","answer_6":" Yes. Under-eye hollows are treated with microfat or nanofat rather than larger parcels, and the technique is chosen in the consultation. The all-inclusive price stays \u00a31,850 \u2014 treating one area or several in the same operation does not change the theatre time enough to alter the quote.<\/p>\n","question_7":"Is the quote in pounds, and can it change before I travel?","answer_7":" You are quoted in GBP and that figure is fixed once your date is confirmed. Exchange rate movements between booking and surgery are on us, not on you, and nothing is added at the clinic on the day.<\/p>\n","question_8":"","answer_8":"","extra_content_1_header":"Which technique suits which area","extra_content_1":" The price is the same across techniques because the theatre time, anaesthesia and hospital stay are identical \u2014 the surgeon chooses the method, or a combination of them, according to where you have lost volume. That decision is confirmed at your consultation, not at the checkout.<\/p>\n","extra_content_2_header":"How Many Nights You Need in Istanbul","extra_content_2":" Facial fat transfer on its own is booked as a 2-night stay: arrival and pre-op checks on day one, surgery, then a post-op check before you fly. Swelling and some bruising over the cheeks and lower lids peak in the first 48\u201372 hours, which is why we prefer you to be seen once more before the flight rather than the morning after surgery.<\/p>\n If you combine it with blepharoplasty the stay becomes 3 nights, and with a facelift 4\u20136 nights depending on the package. Hotel nights for the stated duration are inside the price \u2014 extra nights are booked at our corporate rate if you decide to stay longer.<\/p>\n"},"cost-categories":[],"class_list":["post-26224","costs","type-costs","status-publish","hentry"],"permalink_manager":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/akmclinic.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/costs\/26224","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/akmclinic.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/costs"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/akmclinic.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/costs"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/akmclinic.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26224"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cost-categories","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/akmclinic.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cost-categories?post=26224"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n\n
