Facial lipo-filling using high-density fat combined with SVF-GEL / 中华整形外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To discuss the effect of high-density fat-binding SVF-GEL in female facial lipofilling.@*Methods@#This is a retrospective study including 32 female patients, received facial fat transplantation during June 2017 to June 2018 in Yichun College. Each patient underwent high-density fat-binding SVF-GEL transplantation for facial surgery. Patients′satisfaction with the surgery and the rate of secondary surgery was evaluated. Fat was harvested from the inner thigh, centrifuged at 1200 g for 3 min, and the liquid was removed. The upper 2/3 part is prepared for SVF-GEL, for further used in delicate lipofilling in eyelid, tear groove and nasolabial groove. The lower 1/3 high density fat was used for volume restoration, such as forehead, temporal area and cheek.@*Results@#All patients had significant improvements in facial contours with mild swelling and short recovery time. The satisfaction rate was 68.8%(22/32), and the second operation rate was 15.6%(5/32).@*Conclusions@#High-density fat-binding SVF-GEL transplantation can achieve good results in correcting facial volume loss.
