Fat grafting & liposuction

Fat is taken from areas such as the thighs, abdomen and buttocks, only pure fat is extracted with a centrifuge, and it is injected into hollow areas. Forehead grafting injects fat into the subcutaneous space between the forehead bone and muscle, and full-face grafting injects it where needed, such as the forehead, temples, cheeks and nasolabial folds. Both take 30 minutes to 1 hour under sedation, without hospitalization, and return to daily life after 4 to 5 days is described as possible.

The full-face fat grafting guide advises not touching the treated area by hand and avoiding alcohol and smoking to prevent inflammation. Dieting should be avoided so the fat can settle, and saunas and swimming should be avoided for one month. Bleeding and bruising can occur, and recovery varies with each person's condition.

The guide covers the face, abdomen, buttocks and thighs, flanks and waist, arms and underarms, and calves. Fat is removed with equipment such as negative pressure, ultrasound and laser, and a method combined with Venus laser is also described. Surgery takes 1 to 2 hours under sedation with same-day discharge, and stitches are removed after 7 days.

It is a surgery that suctions subcutaneous fat from the double chin with a cannula and gathers and ties the loose platysma muscle at the center to refine the jawline. A double chin can come not only from excess fat but also from sagging of the platysma, the muscle that wraps the neck, so both are considered together. Surgery takes 1 hour under sedation with 1 day of hospitalization, and stitches are removed after 2 weeks.

The point at which daily life becomes possible depends on the surgery. Liposuction is described as allowing daily life after 2 to 3 days, fat grafting after 4 to 5 days, and double chin surgery after 1 to 2 weeks. Bleeding and bruising can occur, and recovery varies with each person's condition.
