Fat Grafting: A More Natural Filler

Modern medical technology, however, has the power to transform your face and body into a fresher, tighter, and younger looking version of your current self.

2010-12-04

NEW YORK, NY, December 04, 2010 (Press-News.org) The aging process brings with it all sorts of unwanted side effects including sagging skin, fat, and age marks. Unfortunately, no one can turn back the clock and make you look like you did when you were in your prime. Modern medical technology, however, has the power to transform your face and body into a fresher, tighter, and younger looking version of your current self.

Fat Grafting
Fat grafting, or fat transplanting, is a technique that utilizes liposuction to remove fat from unwanted places on the body and reinsert the same fat in desired locations. This is highly effective on or around the face to fill in and smooth out depressions or plump up flattened lips. Fat grafting can be used anywhere on the body and the use of fat grafting in buttock augmentation has grown extremely popular. (more info: http://www.drlefkovits.com/fat_transplant-f.html)

Natural fillers such as Juvederm and Radiesse are the most common fillers to use for depressions around the face, as well as to add volume to such places as the lips. They are quick to inject and allow for immediate return to work.

Fat grafting allows you to use a substance that is completely natural and one hundred percent a part of you. This minimizes the risk of your body rejecting the fat injections and assures you that, since the fat originally came from your body, it belongs there. Additionally, the chance of developing infection is cut to almost nothing. Fat grafting is much safer and can give you the results you want.

Fat Grafting Procedure
Following the liposuction portion of the procedure, the fat is processed. Using a very fine needle, the fat is then injected into each desired area. This smaller needle allows your plastic surgeon to use smaller incisions than a silicone gel implant would require. The fat grafting procedure leaves smaller and less noticeable scarring giving you more natural look as you heal.

Of course, fat grafting may not the right option for everyone. People with little or no fat available for removal may wish to consider alternative treatment.. Your options should be discussed with your plastic surgeon prior to making any decisions.
