Autologous fat grafts are widely used in the field of regenerative medicine for augmentation and rejuvenation. Even though fat has numerous advantages, the applicability was limited due to unpredictable long term outcomes. To improve the longevity of Fat Grafting and improving its regenerative capabilities various modifications and refinements in techniques from harvesting, use of standardized kits for preparation of fat, combination of fat with PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) or PRF (Platelet Rich Fibrin) or Regenera are used. At Lisa Aesthetics we use the best and the most updated techniques to provide long term and maximum improvement in various indications.
Indications for Fat Grafting
- Facial volumization (microfat)
- Hand and feet rejuvenation
- Face and neck rejuvenation - improvement in fine lines, wrinkles, texture
- Correction of photodamaged skin
- Dark circles / pigmentary changes
- Acne scars - can be used in combination with lasers
- Tear trough correction
- Burn scars
- Scleroderma
- Genital rejuvenation
- Androgenetic alopecia (nanofat with PRF/PRP)
Grafted fat can transform or repair the tissues into which it is placed. Fat grafting can be done as an office procedure (day time clinical procedure). The harvesting techniques have been simplified by the use of microcannulas. Better survival of the stem cells in the fat (adipose derived stem cells), in SVF (stromal vascular fraction) and nanofat due to the recent advances in techniques provide long term improvement after a single session.
