It consists of applying fat from the patient himself to recover the lost volume.
Over time, the facial tissues lose volume, elasticity and collagen, which causes a decrease in the definition of the face and accentuates the signs of aging.
Facial lipoinjection consists of applying fat from the patient himself to recover the lost volume. It is commonly used on cheekbones, cheeks, eyebrows, nasogenian grooves, lips and chin.
A part of the infiltrated fat can be reabsorbed, which depends on each patient and the technique used. For this, specialized lipoinjection and centrifugation equipment is used that optimize the quality of the graft.
The procedure can be performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia or as a complement to other facial surgeries under general anesthesia.
Fat is obtained from areas with deposits such as the low abdomen or crotch, or the fat extracted during a liposuction is used.
We maintain absolute discretion with our patients, if you have an interest in seeing pre and post-operative results, please request it directly from Dr. René Pequent.
