Facial Rejuvenation with Autologous Fat Transfer
Volume loss is one of the most noticeable signs of ageing, subtly changing the contours and balance of the face over time. Autologous fat transfer, also know as fat grafting or lipofilling, is a natural way to restore lost volume, enhance facial definition and improve fine lines and wrinkles. It creates long-lasting rejuvenation using your own tissue: a rich source of stem cells that provides greater potential for regeneration.
The unique benefits of facial fat grafting
During the procedure fat is gently harvested from an area of your body, such as the abdomen or thighs. The fat is then purified and safely injected into targeted facial areas, such as the cheeks, temples, jawline, or under the eyes. Because this approach uses your own tissue, results look and feel more natural and last longer than a dermal filler, while also avoiding synthetic materials. Further processing can also provide nano-fat which is a rich source of stem cells containing regenerative properties. This can be injected superficially to improve texture, reduce fine lines or improve scars.
