Injectable Fat

You can forgo the pharmaceutical filler route and use your own body fat as filler. Autologous fat injections or fat transfer are terms used to define injectable soft-tissue augmentation using your own fat. More commonly used in conjunction with other surgical procedures, your fat can be extracted, processed and reinjected into your lips, facial creases or hands. There is no risk of allergy and your body won't reject the graft. Typically, the fat is extracted from the abdomen, buttocks or thighs through liposuction techniques or a pinpoint incision with manual suction. Fat transfer requires local anesthesia at a minimum, and calls for significant downtime with several weeks or more of swelling and bruising when larger quantities of fat are removed. If fat is harvested from a limited area, and small amounts are injected into limited areas, recovery may only be a few days. It may require a few weeks for swelling and bruising to diminish if large quantities of fat and areas are injected. Some of the fat injected will be reabsorbed over time, so you may need more than one treatment to truly achieve and maintain the fullness you desire.

Dissolve That Fat

Melt Fat Away
A new procedure name Lipdissolve is said to melt away fat through a series of injection offered at specialty clinics and doctors offices.
Patients who undergo injection lipolysis receive a series of shots in their bellies, thighs, neck, upper arms and other fatty areas they want to shrink. Depending on the target area and the clinic’s method, patients may require six visits, often spaced two to four weeks apart, where they get between five and 25 shots. Costs often run between $1,000 to $3,000 per area for a complete series of injections.
A study published in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal in 2006 found that 75 doctors who treated more than 17,000 patients worldwide noted that about 12 percent of patients expressed disappointment with the results of injection lipolysis. The best treatment areas, with the greatest number of physicians reporting good results, were the abdomen, the flanks and under the chin.
