Over the years, one of the main signs of facial ageing is a loss of volume, caused by the atrophy of fat and bone tissue. Key areas, such as the cheeks and eyes, lose volume and shift position, creating an older appearance. Facial <\/span>lipofilling<\/span><\/i>, or lipostructure, is a highly effective technique for restoring this lost volume by transferring the patient\u2019s own fat to the areas that need it.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The two main advantages of this technique are its long-lasting nature and the fact that it is autologous, meaning it uses the patient\u2019s own tissue, removing any risk of rejection.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Facial <\/span>lipofilling<\/span><\/i> can be performed on its own or combined with other procedures, such as <\/span>blepharoplasty<\/span><\/i> or a <\/span>facelift<\/span><\/i>. Depending on the volume of fat to be transferred and the patient\u2019s preferences, the procedure can be performed in an operating theatre or in-clinic under local anaesthesia.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The process involves several stages:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Fat extraction<\/b>: Fat is carefully extracted from areas such as the abdomen, flanks or thighs.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Fat processing<\/b>: The extracted fat is purified using decantation, filtering or centrifugation techniques to minimise cell loss.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Fat injection<\/b>: The purified fat is injected into the areas of the face where volume needs to be restored, such as the cheeks, temples or under the eyes.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    It is worth noting that approximately 50% of the injected fat is reabsorbed, which is why slight overcorrection is common during the injection stage to ensure a long-lasting result.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    Recovery from facial <\/span>lipofilling<\/span><\/i> is generally comfortable, with minimal side effects. Some swelling is common but gradually disappears in the days following the procedure. Most patients experience little to no pain or bruising.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

    It is important to avoid applying pressure or making forceful movements over the treated areas. The survival of the fat graft depends on its blood supply developing, a process that is generally complete within 3 to 4 weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

    Facial <\/span>lipofilling<\/span><\/i> offers a natural, long-lasting and effective way to restore lost volume, giving the face a more youthful, harmonious appearance.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
