DALLAS PLASTIC SURGERY: FAT GRAFTING, FACE LIFT ALTERNATIVE

[aseelnuman]

what is the source of this fat??

[samlammd]

@aseelnuman your own belly or thighs.

[maznyo]

@aseelnuman They suck fat from different body parts ex. butt and inject it into the face. As it's own fat there's no risk of allergies or rejection. :-)

Proove that plastic surgery needed

[samlammd]

@joswanlauwkung it is never needed. it is wanted. big difference.

ok, i have facial atrophy on the right side of my face, the fat inthe cheek is partically all gone. I am 23 and i was scared of any surgery but this sounds very interesting.. where is this done

[samlammd]

@LEBONITA in dallas where i practice.

How is the downtime, how is the bruising?

[samlammd]

@normaland about 10 days of swelling with some that still continues onward into the second week. bruising is typically not bad but can be so. i can laser down most bruising if it happens at a week.

Can fat be added to enhance the results of a face lift - maybe to the cheeks. And about how much does this procedure cost ? Does it require anestthesia or just local or ??

[samlammd]

yes, it can. it can also be done without a facelift and still look great. i look at it in reverse, i.e., a facelift is to enhance a fat transfer result. if you are interested in the cost, email marcy at lamfacialplastics [dot com]. i prefer anesthesia.  local is uncomfortable to perform the procedure.

what does it feel like to the touch? is it like gelatinous?

[samlammd]

it is just fat. it is soft.

She got really good fat retention around eyes that is what I want. Is their anyway to predict who will have good retention and who will not? Thanks!

[samlammd]

younger, female, non-smoker are the best. but i get pretty good retention throughout even in my mother who is 2 years out from a single session, and she is 70.

[XxLuciferousxX]

It never made sense to me, why get face lifts or something tithing? Doesnt the body loose fat around the face the older you get? So getting a face life will make you wrinkle free but you still look old right? This is genius, adding fat makes more sense, always has.

[samlammd]

thanks!
