Anti-Aging of the Future: Fat Grafting
March 20th, 2013
Last week in Miami, I participated in the American Society of Plastic Surgeons 1st Regenerative Medicine Summit focusing on fat grafting. This is the wave of anti-aging treatments of the future.
Regenerative medicine has the real potential to change the way we treat the aging body, impacting both reconstructive and aesthetic surgery. It is the future of medicine happening right now. ASPS’s summit focused on clinical applications of regenerative medicine and fat grafting for both aesthetic and reconstructive surgery.
Of particular interest to me are the advancements in implant-free breast enlargements and incision-free facial rejuvenation. This is an exciting time to be a plastic surgeon. More on that next.
Breast Surgery Tops 2012 Procedures

Breast surgery returns to the top of the most popular cosmetic surgeries for 2012. According to The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), more than 330,000 women chose to have cosmetic breast surgery, making it the most popular surgery again. It replaces liposuction, which comes in a close second with over 300,000 procedures performed last year. The remaining top 5 for cosmetic surgery trends include abdominoplasty or tummy tuck, eyelid surgery and rhinoplasty or nose jobs. In my own practice, I have also seen more interest in facial rejuvenation, as well.
