If you’re looking to turn back time, no amount of magic creams can truly reverse signs of aging. As aging progresses, skin structure diminishes, which eventually forms fine lines, wrinkles, and a loss of volume in the face. Also known as micro-fat grafting, ALMI, micronized injection, or nano fat grafting, this procedure in LA and Beverly Hills is a refined and specific technique of fat transfer, where a small amount of fat is removed and injected into other areas of the body.
The word “nano” or “micro” refers to the very small particles of fat that are specifically emulsified and used for areas with very defined contours, such as the fine lines, wrinkles, temples, tear troughs, dark circles around the eyes and other facial restoration. The best part of it is that it is an in-office, very safe, easy, economical way to replace larger volume loss and can be precisely injected with a filler-sized injection needle or cannula.
Nano fat grafting or micronized injections can be performed in our beautiful LA office by Cosmetic Surgeon Dr. Andre Berger, who has extensive experience in fat transfers including this state-of-the-art micro-fat grafting technique for small areas such as the face, decollete, under eyes. Dr. Berger is a highly acclaimed body sculpting expert performing other fat grafting procedures, including Brazilian butt lift, natural breast augmentation, and body fat transfer. We also can assist with Fat Banking should you want to store your fat for later usage.
With the help of a local anesthetic for ensuring patient comfort, a small needle attached to a syringe is injected into an area with excess fat. Common areas may include the buttocks, abdomen, or flanks. After the fat is removed, it’s spun in a centrifuge to separate the fat from other fluids. Then, the purified fat is injected into the delicate facial contours, depending on the patient’s aesthetic goals.
Upon the patient’s request or Dr. Berger’s recommendations, he enhances the nano fat with stem cells and other ingredients to improve the longevity and effectiveness of the results. This serum is used to improve the overlying skin’s texture and appearance. Progressively, these results will continue to improve over time.
You may be a good candidate for nano fat grafting in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills if you are noticing signs of aging, including:
Due to the minimally invasive procedure, most patients are able to return to their normal activities within two days. For the first 48 hours, you will need to wear a facial compression bandage to help reduce swelling and to aid the healing process. The compression garment is then worn at night for the next 12 days, further enhancing the results.
While you will notice almost instant results, full results will be seen over the next three to six months as new collagen is produced.
Nano fat grafting in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills, CA, is specifically produced to correct very refined contours of the face, which is an excellent alternative to more traditional methods, such as dermal fillers.
Nano fat grafting is also safe, economical and effective, where there is no chance of allergic reaction and it can be done in-office. Finally, nano fat transfer results last much longer than traditional methods by stimulating regenerative facial structures, such as natural collagen production at a molecular level.
