As you get older, two nasty things happen that let the world know you've been around a while-One, your face gets thin and wrinkled; Two, your body droops, sags and fattens up. It's just not fair! Why couldn't it be the other way around?
Wouldn't it be nice if you could take that fat off your waist, thighs, belly and back, and use it to fill out your facial features? Well, now you can. A new plastic surgery procedure called "fat transfer" is there for you.
Showing Your Age
We all know that, as we get older, fat appears in areas where it's just nearly impossible to get rid of. You can exercise, watch your diet, and try any new craze that comes along, but often the only way to get rid of the fat is to have it removed by a plastic surgeon.
The problems of the face are often more noticeable. We get wrinkles, blemishes and "crow's feet," those lines at the edge of the eyes. Lines around the mouth also make you look older. You also get the "hollow cheek" look, where you lose the fullness of your features. There are lots of options to reverse these signs of aging, but this is the only procedure that tackles both problems. And, it's a fairly simple, easy procedure.
Injecting It In Your Face
Here is how it works. The doctor performs a light liposuction. This is not one of these big jobs that leave the patient in gauze for weeks. It's a quickie; they take just enough material to be used to fill in. This tiny operation targets your body's worst "target areas."
The next step is actually the most important because it guarantees the safety of the procedure. The matter taken out is purified. The doctor runs it through a variety of filters to remove any impurities. You only want the best ones for your face. After it's cleaned up, the doctor injects it into the areas you'd like to enhance.
What A Little Facial Filler Can Do
* Removes wrinkles, "crow's feet," "smile lines" and other particular signs of again.
* Gives your skin a smoother, softer look.
* Feels real, because it uses tissue from your body.
* Much safer than other plastic surgery options because it uses material from your body that has been purified.
* Can be used to get rid of acne and other scars.
* Perfect for any area of the face: eyelids, temples, lips, chin, neck, nose, the area around the nose, cheeks, jaw line it can also be used to enhance the breasts, buttocks or lower body.
This is a relatively new operation, and patients have been pleased with the results. It takes a little tissue from the areas you'd like to subtract as you get older, and puts it onto the areas you'd like to enhance.
Even though it is a simple operation, there are always risks and side effects, so talk to your plastic surgeon. Have a consultation with a doctor who has done the procedure before, and get all your questions answered. This is a wonderful solution. It's not quite like finding the fountain of youth, but it will make you look like you did. |
