Lipo Fat used in Natural Facial Rejuvenation
April 23rd, 2013
Recent Patient talks about having Lipo Fat Transfer for natural facial rejuvenation .
RJB writes: “I’m a fit and health conscious 46 year-old woman. Recently my reflection in the mirror seemed tired and older than it should. The area under my eyes, the lines from nose to mouth, and my lips and cheeks had definitely changed! My main goal was to just look like the healthy young person that I am.
I had a consultation with Dr. Bashioum about options to improve my problem areas. He suggested fat grafting, which involves careful liposuction to harvest your fat, then injecting it into target areas. According to Dr. Bashioum, fat grafting provides regenerative properties and it really works to address the look of aging by plumping up my hollow areas where I had lost some fat layer. I was very excited about this because it’s natural, using my own fat vs. some other injectable, so I scheduled the procedure.”
Fat Transfer: the Fountain of Youth?
April 19th, 2013
Is fat transfer the Fountain of Youth? Perhaps, because regenerative medicine offers stunning new advances in natural procedures for facial rejuvenation. As your face ages, fat is lost and often changes position. This change is usually presented as wrinkles and skin sagging. The natural fat transfer technique now allows us to replace facial fat loss. Simply stated, starting with liposuction, we gently remove your own fat cells from selected areas and then they are carefully transferred to another location. The regenerative properties of these fat cells are particularly effective, because the fat cells become a natural living part of the tissues where it is placed. Whether it is filling the hollowness of the lower eyelids or plumping the cheeks, replacing a diminished fatty layer is an effective solution for the aging face.
This revolutionary technique is not limited to facial rejuvenation. Fat grafting is an outpatient, clinic-based procedure and the quick recovery time is changing many aspects of cosmetic plastic surgery today. It is an ideal solution for patients preferring more natural choices for the newest options in cosmetic surgery.
