Body fat makes excellent
soft tissue filler substance. AFT transfers fat from one part
of the body to another to recontour the face or to fill out
depressed scarred areas on any part of the body. Fat injection
is semi-permanent, and may require subsequent sessions or maintenance
program. |

In general, age or sex is
not a limiting factor for AFT. |
|
| |
You may be a good candidate
for AFT if you desire to: |
|
| |
- Correct those prominent frown lines, crow's feet and
nasolabial folds (smile lines) - especially static lines.
- Provide definition to cheeks and chin.
- Correct aged, thinned and hollowed facial and hand skin
- Fill out any depressed area of the body
- Augment breasts or buttocks (limited amount)
- Penile Enlargement

Fat is taken from an area
(or area's) of the body where it may be unwanted and transplanted
to area's of the face or body where it is needed.
Generally, local anaesthesia with IV sedation is used. Using
special harvesting and transplantation techniques the fat is
transferred to the desired area with minimum trauma to the fat
cells. This ensures reliable survival and longer lasting effects
of the procedure.
The procedure generally lasts for one hour.
You may have a small dressing at the donor site. |

AFT has excellent results
but may produce significant swelling that may take 7 to 14 days
to settle. Bruising usually fades quickly and can be camouflaged
by 7 days. Most people can return to work in 2 weeks. Oral medications
will be prescribed to keep you comfortable. |

The results of AFT can be
a natural, permanent improvement in the shape of your face,
cheek bone, eyebrows, lips or hands. |
