facial lipofilling at Obesity & Aesthetic Surgery in Tunisia
Facial lipofilling is an aesthetic surgical intervention aimed at filling the hollow areas of the face and restoring volume. This is done by re-injecting fat from another part of the body.
This surgery is often requested by people who have a thin face naturally or post-traumatic.
The intervention
Facial lipofilling is a two-step procedure.
- We start by removing fat from a part of the body using the liposuction technique. Common treatment areas include the abdomen, back, hips, thighs and buttocks.
- After the fat is removed, it is harvested and prepared for injection at the second treatment site.
- Fat injections are performed in areas of the face requiring augmentation. The difference is that fat grafting gives permanent results for most patients.
However, it is likely that some of the injected fat will be reabsorbed by the body, requiring a follow-up procedure in a few months to a year to get complete results.
Benefits of facial lipofilling
Fat injection as a cosmetic treatment is: natural, versatile, durable and safe. Fat transfer has become a preferred method of improving facial volume for patients who are allergic to traditional skin loads such as bovine-derived collagen.
One of the biggest advantages of improving volume through fat injection is that there is absolutely no chance of an adverse allergic reaction.
Result
The result of a facial lipofilling is almost immediate. There will still be some bruising and edema that can last for the first week. But the patient can resume normal life immediately.
