The overall facial rejuvenation with autologous fat is very popular. We cannot stop time, everybody goes through the process of aging, however we can take steps to slow down skin aging. Over the course of life, the face gradually loses its subcutaneous fat layer and wrinkles occur. The fat disappears and moves to other areas. Lipografting returns this fat layer into desired parts, smoothes out wrinkles and makes the face more radiant.
Fat tissue naturally contains a high number of stem cells which initiate the healing process and have a good effect on the survival of transferred fat tissue. These qualities are also used to improve the appearance of scars and to treat dark circles below the eyes etc.
You will be surely pleased that the effect is apparent immediately after treatment. We apply a slightly bigger fat quantity because some parts of the fat cells get absorbed during the first year. This absorption varies with each individual and cannot be anticipated.

Surgical process
- Do not be afraid. We will explain you everything during the consultation. Lipoinjections are an outpatient procedure, without the necessity of hospitalization.
- The whole procedure takes from 45 minutes to approximately 2 hours, depending on the treated area.
- Firstly, we will very gently suck your own fat tissue with a thin cannula from a suitable body part (hips, thigs, buttocks, tummy etc.) Do not be afraid, fat harvesting is not painful.
- The fat tissue is refined, removing unwanted particles, and very small quantities are gently and three-dimensionally applied through a special thin cannula to the desired area.
Recovery
There is no need to wear any medical postoperative compression garment and you can immediately return to your everyday life. However, take more rest, at least in the first days after the procedure, without any sport activities.
