ST. PETERSBURG, FL, November 11, 2010 (Press-News.org) Board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. John J. O'Brien Jr., of the St. Petersburg Center for Plastic Surgery in St. Petersburg, Florida, has added autologous fat grafting, a hot new trend in plastic surgery, to his extensive suite of plastic, reconstructive and cosmetic services.
Autologous fat transfer, or fat grafting, is a state-of-the-art procedure which transfers a patient's own fat from an unwanted area of the body to an area where augmentation is desired. The procedure provides a gentle solution to addressing changes the face and body commonly experience as a result of aging. With aging comes facial hollowing, and fat grafting allows excess waistline or hip-area fat to be transferred to the face, where it is used to restore a fuller, more youthful look, while reshaping and sculpting the body.
In addition, fat grafting is an effective procedure for lip plumping, buttock augmentation and scar removal. It can also be used to rejuvenate and enhance all areas of the face, including cheekbones, eyes and chin.
Fat grafting is a less-invasive alternative to surgery, as the procedure can be done under local anesthesia, with virtually no complications or scarring. Patients benefit from small incisions and a quick recovery time. "Autologous fat transfer is a safe, effective technique used to restore a youthful appearance, improving a patient's confidence and self-esteem," said Dr. O'Brien.
Dr. O'Brien performs fat grafting procedures in his state-of-the-art, 7000 sq. ft surgery center, the St. Petersburg Center for Plastic Surgery, in St. Petersburg, complete with a fully-accredited operating room. Patients are cared for in a comfortable and compassionate environment, with a professional staff providing a one-on-one personal approach to each individual patient. The surgery center is centrally located to Tampa, Clearwater and surrounding areas.
