Deformities in the craniofacial region are of great social and functional importance. Several surgical techniques have been used\nto treat such pathologies often with high morbidity and lacking the ability to address smaller contour defects. The minimally\ninvasive technique of fat transplantation has evolved rapidly within the last few decades. The objective of this paper is to present\nthe versatility and applicability of fat transplantation in a wide range of contour deformities in the craniofacial region.We share our\nexperiences in treating 13 patients with autoimmune disorders, congenitalmalformations, and acquired defects. Future perspectives\nof fat transplantation in the field of craniofacial reconstruction are discussed.
