Fat injection


Fat injection is one of the best solutions to correct wrinkles and increase facial volume. As mentioned earlier, there are other ways such as gel and Botox injections.
The purpose of fat injection is to correct wrinkles and increase facial volume or other body parts such as the breasts and hips. One of the most important causes of facial sagging is under the skin fat loss and facial volume reduction therefore, fat or hyaluronic acid is used for that.
Injecting fat taken from a person is called Lipofilling. This technique has been used in all societies. The taken fat is used not only for facial rejuvenation but also to volumize the breasts, hips, and legs, rejuvenate the back of hands, correct skin roughness after suction or depressions caused by injuries and heal some wounds.
To do this, your surgeon first removes fat using special microcannulas.

Facial fat injection to correct such things as:

Cheek enlargement

Volumizing the face

Correcting the asymmetry of the face’s two halves

Filling the temple’s cavity

Mandibular angle augmentation

Harvesting by hand or machine

In today’s world, non-specialists try to mislead and democratize people by naming various devices for fat removals, such as body jets and Lipomatics. The best-known technique for removing fat for injection in the face is by hand and with a syringe. Because the surgeon feels the process and touches all the steps closely, the possibility of damage to the fat cell wall by hand is very low. The removed fat does not enter the device hose and is not damaged, also the amount of removed fat is so small and does not cause unevenness on the surface.
After consultation with us, the removal place is chosen as you wish. Necessary fat can be removed from the abdomen, sides, hips, armpits, knees, and so on.
After identifying and marking, the tumescent fluid is injected containing anesthetic and narrowing the arteries’ features and effects after 20 to 30 minutes.

How to remove and inject:

As mentioned, the removal is done with hands and special syringes, which needs more effort than devices.
Depending on the face anatomy the removal amount varies from person to person between 20 and 200 ml.
The removed fat keeps in the special kit and is ready for re-injection after washing and centrifugation. A small amount of local anesthesia is applied at the inlet of the injection syringe and then injected to the points with very fine needles. Since a small number of cells are damaged in the manual removal method, it is advisable to inject 10 to 20 percent more than the required amount for less shortage after the absorption of these damaged cells.

Durability:

If the body supplies blood to these injected cells in 2 to 4 days, the injected cells will survive and have a high shelf life. Otherwise, some of it is absorbed by the body, and there is a need for re-injection, which can be repeated after 2 months to finally reach the desired volume.

Importance of using the right tools:

It is very important to use a special fat injection tool for the face. Doing this with cannulas for the abdomen, thighs or hips is a professional error and increases the fat absorption percentage and also causes excessive face swelling in the first weeks after the injection.
Facial fat is used to increase the distance between the eyebrows, to fill the temples, cheeks, the dimples under the eyes, to correct the lines and wrinkles of the face such as the smile and marionette lines, to shape the chin and the mandibular angle augmentation, to fill in the recess of the upper eyelid and give volume to the lips.

Factors affecting durability

1- Surgeon’s expertise and experience (See the plastic surgeons’ names on the official Iranian Society of Plastic Surgeons website).

2- Removing technique is the best hand technique and using the fat removal machines’ names in the fat injection is considered demagogy.

3- Injection tools should be special for face injection.

4- Body’s physiology

Recovering period:

The patients usually put on a little makeup after 2 to 3 days after surgery and resume their activities completely after one to 2 weeks. We recommend doing light physical exercise for 2 to 4 weeks and avoiding saunas and solariums for up to 4 weeks.

Advantages of choosing fat injection:

Because the injected fat is removed from the person’s body, the possibility of an allergic reaction is eliminated and the infection risk is very low. If the patient has enough fat, several parts of the face can be injected in one session, which makes the fat injection much more cost-effective than gel injection.
If there is a need for re-injection, it can be repeated after 4 to 8 weeks.
