| Lipo-infiltration is a process where the patient's own fat is used to alter the structure of the face and body. Augmenting the structure of these certain areas restores the look of youthfulness. Lipo-infiltration encompasses two concepts. First, the fatty tissues can be placed or woven in such fashion to create architectural changes in the face and body. Second, the newly placed fat strengthens the structural qualities of the tissues around which it is placed.
Removing wrinkles by tightening does not necessarily recreate a youthful appearance. Replacing fullness to a face restores the appearance of youth. In many cases, instead of tightening and shortening by excision of unsupported skin, Dr. Merkel uses Lipo-infiltration to infiltrate the face or body with a living filler, correcting asymmetry and restoring the fullness of youth naturally.
Even normal facial structures can be aided by Lipo-infiltration. A stronger jawline and chin creates a healthier look, a more powerful face. Eliminating the tear trough deformity of hollowness of the lower eyelids eliminates the tired, sad appearance. Softening the frown line can make a patient look less angry. Fuller lips give a healthier, sexier, vibrant appearance.
After a century of searching, Lipo-infiltration at last provides physicians with a safe, long-lasting structural filler for altering facial and body contours. It is the natural way, because it is your own tissue: a perfect match!
