Fat Grafting by OC Plastic Surgeon Dr. von Maur…

In need of a Voluptuous Bikini-Ready Butt?

“Father Time” may offer us all opportunities, but demands and captures our exuberant youthful appearance.  Although culture plays a significant role in our description of a Beautiful Butt, the butts aging process crosses all ethnic back grounds.  The gluteal muscles begin to atrophy, diminished collagen and elastin help the sagging process, hormones and lack of circulation help cellulite to appear, loss of volume creates a flat butt. Plastic Surgery of the buttocks (liposuction) would permanently restore and create harmonious natural balance and is often synchronized with fat grafting.

But what is FAT GRAFTING?

Body Liposculpture with Fat Grafting for a Voluminous Butt.

Micro-fat grafting, or autologous transfer, involves harvesting fat from one part of the body (usually the flanks, hips, abdomen, thighs or lower back), and then re-injected into the needed areas. Fat grafting may have to be done more than once since fat survival varies with location: it is is best in areas which exhibit the least movement. For example,  fat  grafts in the cheeks survive better than in the lips or Buttocks. Furthermore, graft survival is variable from one patient to the other. Fat grafting carries a very low risk of complications which may include infection, asymmetry, or lumpiness.  These occurrences are rarely seen. The advantage is that it is your own natural tissue, it is soft and it is permanent.

New Technologies in Plastic Surgery

Alternative to Breast Implants

From skin, to creams, to research, stem cells are continuously proving to be ground breaking in our Plastic Surgery community. Doctors at the Bernard O’Brien Institute of Microsurgery in Melbourn, Australia, have introduced an innovated stem cell therapy, Neopec. It offers a natural alternative for women to regrow their breast after cancer surgery. Neopec uses a woman’s own regenerative capacity to grow new fat tissue in her breasts and involves implanting a breast-shaped biodegradable chamber into the chest before surgeons redirect blood vessels into the chamber with the patient’s own fat cells. In the next four to six months, the fat grows into the shape of the chamber, which dissolves ehen the new breast is formed.  Neopec hopes to provide a solution that is more natural than tissue transplants or silicone implants. Human trials are due to begin before the middle of the year and once perfected, it would also be offered to woman who have had, defects of previous reconstructions or congenital deformities.
