Cheek lipofilling is a plastic surgery procedure that can be used to correct the shape and size of the cheeks.

General information

This procedure will help remove folds, wrinkles, excess fat and tighten sagging skin. To perform the operation, the patient takes the required amount of fatty tissue from the hips or abdomen. It undergoes the necessary processing and is injected into the cheek area. The duration of the operation does not exceed several hours. Lipofilling is performed both with local anesthesia and under general anesthesia. As an accompanying operation, it can be used to correct the nasolabial folds, lips, cheekbones, forehead and eye area.

Procedure

Preparation

The patient must give blood for analysis and undergo an ECG. Before the operation, the doctor examines the patient and marks the problem areas. Then the surgeon determines the areas for extraction of fat cells and the amount of sampling. The main areas for sampling fat tissue are the sides, thighs and abdomen. In some cases, the doctor performs liposuction of such areas simultaneously with lipofilling. This allows you to tidy up not only your face, but your figure as a whole.

Cheek lipofilling procedure

The technique does not involve the appearance of scars and incisions. Fat tissue is extracted using small punctures in designated areas. Cannulas and a small tube are used for this. The puncture does not damage blood vessels or nerve endings. The processed fat cells are injected into the marked area. If necessary, the doctor evenly distributes the fat in the subcutaneous layer to give the desired contour to the cheeks.

Rehabilitation period

After the procedure, the patient can go home. In the first days, slight swelling may appear in the cheek area. In a week they disappear thanks to lotions and a compression bandage.

During the recovery period, the patient is recommended to:

  • avoid strong chewing movements;
  • avoid facial movements;
  • refrain from visiting the sauna and bathhouse.

The final result is noticeable no earlier than 3 months after the procedure. In some cases, the cheeks acquire the desired contour and shape after 4-6 months. It depends on the characteristics of the body.

The patient can receive individual recommendations for rehabilitation only from the attending physician.

Indications

With the help of such a procedure, it is easy to eliminate:

  • congenital or acquired defects of the cheeks;
  • wrinkles;
  • defects in the shape of the face.

The operation is also suitable for those who want to make voluminous cheeks or increase the elasticity of the skin on the face.

Contraindications

  • various diseases of internal organs;
  • atherosclerosis, diabetes diabetes;
  • infectious diseases, acute and chronic forms of diseases;

Complications

Common complications after the procedure include:

  • development of severe swelling;
  • appearance of pain and decreased sensitivity of the skin;
  • infection of puncture sites;
  • increased body temperature, chills.

In rare cases, the patient needs repeated lipofilling. This happens when the fat cells injected into the cheeks are quickly absorbed.

A qualified specialist will help eliminate complications.
