Nano-Fat Grafting
Subtle & Natural Facial Contouring
Many people now seek an improvement in facial contour and definition in the areas of the midface and jawline. Sometimes, especially with age, lipo-atrophy can create unwanted facial hollowing and make you look tired. Fat grafting is an elective plastic surgery procedure that adds the patient's own fat into areas that are empty such the cheekbones, midface and jawline. Dr. Ektor specializes in the nano-fat grafting procedure, an advanced method of facial fat grafting, as well as the full range of facial cosmetic surgery, giving you the opportunity to obtain an expert opinion and outcome.
FACIAL CONTOUR TRANSFORMATION
Lack of fat in certain areas of the face such as the cheeckbones, midface, temples and nasolabial area may give you a more tired appearance. Fat also tends to atrophy with age. The best way to replenish lost fat is to resupply a 'like-for-like' tissue using the patient's own adipose tissue. Nano-Fat grafting is rich in precious stem cells, i.e. cells with the highest regenerative potential, and greater survival ability. Discover the most advanced method for facial rejuvenation and volumization, using autologous fat grafts.
Benefits for Your Face :
-
Increased definition in the cheekbones and the jawline area
-
Makes face appear fuller and more youthful
-
Permanent result
-
No need for foreign 'filler' materials which tend to provide a more 'watery' effect and need repeated treatments.
THE TECHNIQUE
Fat is usually removed from the abdomen, thighs and waistline and prepared through a special technique (centrifugation), before being transplanted into the buttocks. It is important to follow a strict protocol of fat graft preparation in order to achieve maximum graft survival. Furthermore, the fat can be combined with regenerative growth factors from the patient's own blood (HYPPP-Fill technique), which significantly improves the survival of fat cells, contributing to a better result. Also, the removal of fat through the Ultrasound-Liposuction technique (VASER-Lipoemulsion) guarantees that the adipose tissue removed is vital and rich in stem cells, so it is ideal for lipotransfer and for increasing the desired facial volume.
COMPLEMENT WITH FACETITE
FaceTite is the most advanced high-precision RF device available today for skin tightening and facial contouring, and it is a great technique to think about when considering a fat grafting procedure.
The device will deliver controlled heat to the delicate and small areas of your face, maximizing the safety and benefits of RFAL (radiofrequency assisted lipolysis) technology. The treatment can be performed using only local tumescent anesthesia in the comfort of our office. The doctor will create a small incision to insert a tiny probe through which RF energy will be delivered into the deeper skin layers. The heat will trigger the production of new collagen and elastin fibers.
The treated areas will become firmer and more youthful , while the skin will regain firmness and volume as collagen formation continues to occur in the deeper tissue over several weeks and months. FaceTite can be an excellent choice for midface and jawline contouring.
3D FACIAL CONTOURING
Enhance the contours of your face, including creating a stronger jawline, improving chin projection, elevating cheekbone projection and removing dark eyes under the eyes. Dr. Ektor is a master of 3D facial anatomy, due to his large surgical experience in carrying out facelift, necklift, brow-lift and genioplasty procedures for over 20 years. He uses the most advanced materials, including dermal fillers, skin builders, fat grafting, facial implants, including chin and cheekbone implants, as well as targeted mesotherapy to help you achieve these goals, thus strengthening your confidence and manly attractiveness.
SAFETY AND COMFORT
Nano Fat grafting is a safe and relatively simple procedure. Your surgery can be completed in about 60 minutes in the comfort of our office, under local anaesthesia and sedation. No post-operative bandage wrap is required, and the sutures used are dissolvable.
RECOVERY
Bruising and swelling are normal after nano-fat grafting. Plan to take 2 to 3 days away from work and normal activities.
During the first day or two, eating softer foods may feel more comfortable. Pain at the incision sites is normal and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers and ice packs applied to the outside of the jaw. Nano-Fat grafting involves minimal downtime, and most patients would be able to go back to their normal work routine in about two to three days after the procedure. It is important to avoid eating hard foods for the first week, as well as apply pressure to the grafted areas of the face. Nicotine smoking should also be avoided in order not to compromise fat graft survival. While the results are often noticeable within a few days, you will continue to experience improvement in contour definition in the treated areas over several months as the swelling subsides.
