Imagine emerging from a single procedure with not only a newly resculpted and proportioned body, but a more rejuvenated face, as well. Dr. Newall is seeing a surge in the number of patients taking liposuction procedures a step further to include fat grafitng enhancement using the fat removed through liposuction.
“Instead of throwing out that precious fat, use it to rejuvenate the face and enhance certain areas of the body,” said ACPS surgeon Dr. German Newall, who often performs the procedure in conjunction with large-volume liposuction.
After completing liposuction to the desired areas, doctors can then take the fat that has been removed, purify it, and inject it into areas of the body where fullness and wrinkle reduction are desired. It is often used to restore a more youthful appearance to the face by filling in facial lines and folds, adding plumpness to the lips and cheeks, and softening hollowness and lines around the eyes. Fat can also be used to resculpt the buttocks to give them a more lifted, projected profile, a procedure that is popularly known as a “Brazilian Butt Lift.”
Non-surgical procedures using BOTOX®Cosmetic, Dysport™, and hyaluronic acid-based fillers such as Juvederm™, Restylane®, and Perlane® have long been among the most commond methods to combat the signs of facial aging. Their lasting popularity is due to the fact that they can be performed quickly in an office visity, and they require little to no downtime. Typically they are completed in less than an hour, and their effects are immediate.
Though a fat grafting procedure requires more initial cost and downtime, the potential longevity of its results make it a more attractive option to many individuals. In addition, because the fat is harvested from the body, there is no risk of an allergic reaction, though that risk is statistically small with injectables.
