Fat Cell Transfer
Fat cell transfer is an excellent alternative to synthetic fillers. We harvest your own fat cells through liposuction and transfer them by injection to fill unwanted lines and wrinkles. Excess fat is deep frozen and stored for a limited time so as to be available should periodic additional volume be desired. As you age, the dermis under your skin thins out. This can leave the face looking too thin and has the effect of making the skin look like it sags. This happens to women of all body types: small frame, medium frame, large frame. A fat injection adds fat to the area beneath the skin, and has the effect of 'filling out the face' to a more youthful state.
Patients may be familiar with the use of fat injections for lip augmentation, but there are many other uses in the face. For example, fat injections can also be used to lessen the lines around the mouth, fill out the cheeks and chin (areas which might have otherwise used facial implants), or as an all purpose filler in the face.
Dr. Mash is also using fat injections in her Hand Rejuvenation procedure. See a demonstration of this by going to HAND REJUVENATION on this site.
