Facial lipoinjection, also known as autologous fat transfer, is an increasingly popular plastic surgery procedure in Colombia. This technique, performed by experts such as Dr. Guevara, a plastic surgeon certified by the Colombian Society of Plastic Surgery (SCCP), offers a natural and long-lasting alternative to rejuvenate the face.
What is Facial Lipoinjection?
Facial lipoinjection involves removing fat from areas of the body where there is excess, such as the abdomen or thighs, and then injecting it into the face to restore lost volume, smooth wrinkles and improve facial contours.
Benefits of Facial Lipoinjection
- Natural results: The patient’s own fat is harmoniously integrated into the face, avoiding allergic reactions and providing a rejuvenated and natural look.
- Duration: Unlike temporary fillers, the results of facial lipoinjection can last for years, as the transplanted fat cells are permanently established.
- Double benefit: The procedure not only improves the face, but also reduces fat in the areas from which it is extracted.
- Safety: By using the patient’s own fat, the risk of rejection or complications is minimized.
Is Facial Lipoinjection Right for Me?
Facial lipoinjection is ideal for people who wish to:
- Restore lost volume to the face due to aging.
- Smoothing wrinkles and facial folds.
- Improve facial contours and cheekbone definition.
- To achieve a natural and long lasting facial rejuvenation.
The Facial Lipoinjection Procedure
Dr. Guevara performs facial lipoinjection in a safe and controlled environment. The procedure begins with the removal of fat by liposuction, then the fat is purified and prepared for injection into the areas of the face that require volume and rejuvenation.
Recovery and Results
Recovery from facial lipoinjection is usually rapid, with minimal downtime. Results are visible immediately, but gradually improve as the swelling subsides and the fat integrates into the facial tissue.
- Does facial liposuction hurt? The procedure is performed under local anesthesia or sedation, so pain is minimal.
- How long do the results last? The results can last for years, as the transplanted fat cells are permanently established.
- Are there risks associated with facial lipoinjection? Like any surgical procedure, there are risks, but they are minimal when the procedure is performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Guevara.
