How many misconceptions about “autologous fat filler” have you fallen into?

There are more and more candidates for autologous fat fillers because the “raw material” is the candidate’s own stuff, which is easier to accept psychologically. In the process of communication with the candidates, we found that some questions are inaccurate and some are vague, so today we have organized several questions to help you. Q1:Do I need general anesthesia to do autologous fat filler? A: Generally speaking, local anesthesia is sufficient and general anesthesia is not required. However, if the candidate has psychological fear and poor pain tolerance of local anesthesia, he/she can request general anesthesia for the surgery. Q2:After filling the fat, it will be absorbed by the body, can I inject more at a time? A: Not every part of the face needs to be filled up. Sometimes too much fat filling will cause the injection site to expand and affect the beauty. Moreover, too much fat filling increases the chance of forming hard knots. When facial fat injection, for the parts that need local multiple fat transplantation, we can take the method of fat concentration for transplantation, which not only increases the amount of fat, but also improves the support of injected fat, and achieves precise fat transplantation site, improves the local fat transplantation survival rate, and achieves the expected effect. Q3: Will recovery be faster if I do hot compresses after surgery? A: Unlike other plastic surgery procedures, after fat grafting, no hot compresses should be applied, which will lead to accelerated tissue metabolism and increased oxygen demand, which is not conducive to fat survival; usually no ice compresses are needed either. Q4: I heard that autologous fat filling of the face will lead to facial sagging over time? A: Before answering this question, beauty seekers should understand a few common sense: 1, fat does not have mobility, so there is no need to worry about sagging because of the flow. 2, the regular hospital doctor’s skills are excellent, there will be no post-operative fat displacement. 3, the phenomenon of facial sagging, and the amount of filler fat is not related. 4, autologous fat filling, to a certain extent on the facial skin is a certain degree of support to enhance the effect. As for the filling of fat for a long time, will it lead to facial sagging: This is not related to the filling of fat itself. The sagging of the face after fat filling seen clinically is often caused by the doctor’s inaccurate level of fat injection filling and poor control of injection volume, so fat filling requires a certain level of doctor. Q5:Is there any regret medicine if I am not satisfied with the result after autologous fat filler facial? A: Generally, it takes 3~6 months for the fat-filled face to fully recover, and the specific time needs to be decided according to the patient’s individual physique and specific situation. Beauty seekers should not be too anxious. If you are still in the period of swelling reduction, the post-operative results may be less than ideal. If you are still dissatisfied with the results of temple fillers after the surgery, you can take a restorative approach to improve the results. For example, laser lipolysis or liposuction can be used to repair the problem, and if necessary, you can also fill in the right amount of fat again to shape it. Q6:Will it be uneven after autologous fat filler and how can I avoid it? A:If the filling technique is not in place, unevenness will occur. If you master the filling level and inject evenly, you can avoid the unevenness to the greatest extent.
