Lipo Augmentation :: The New Breast Augmentation Option

Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation Surgery at Naficy Rejuvenation Center

There is a new option for breast augmentation: your own fat. Recent advances in fat transfer techniques has reawakened interest in fat transfer to the breasts. Lipo augmentation can result in a very natural appearing, moderately sized breast augmentation composed of your own living tissues. No breast implant is required for Lipo Augmentation. The procedure combines liposuction of the thighs, abdomen and flanks with transfer of the fat into the breast tissues. The result can be at least one cup size of augmentation. Dr. Sattler is proud to offer Lipo Augmentation to patients in the Bellevue, Seattle, Everett and Tacoma areas. To learn more about Lipo Augmentation, contact our clinic at 425-450-0880. www.seattleface.com Contact our office for further information, or to reserve your consultation time.

COMBINATION TREATMENTS = CREATING THE BEST RESULTS IN THE LEAST AMOUNT OF TIME

Restoring volume in your face is one of the most effective and natural ways to look younger and more vibrant. Restylane and Juvederm treatments are a quick and effective way to give your face instant volume - smoothing out deeper lines and folds, and plumping lips for a youthful smile. The positive effects of Restylane and Juvederm are even more dramatic when used in combination with the smoothing effects of Botox. Botox not only smoothes fine lines and wrinkles - it also prevents new lines and wrinkles from forming! Both treatments can be performed in less than 15 minutes and typically do not require any downtime. Worried about facial skin laxity? Add Thermage to your treatment plan for a non-surgical face lift! Be proactive in maintaining your skin - call us for a complimentary consultation to see what combination treatments can do for you. You will be amazed by the results!

FAT INJECTIONS TO THE FACE

One of the best ways to help reverse the signs of aging is to add body fat to the face! Using gentle techniques, Dr. Naficy removes fat from the abdomen, thighs, or buttocks. Your own fat is then injected into the face to fill in wrinkles, correct nasolabial folds, or to plump lips. The greatest advantage of fat over Sculptra or Restylane is that it is 100% natural.

Cheek Augmentation

Prominent cheekbones are one of the key features of an attractive face. Cheek augmentation can help restore the well-formed cheekbones you used to have when you were young, or if you have never had well-defined cheekbones, cheek implants may give your face the desired contour of higher cheekbones. Cheek implants are made in various shapes and sizes, depending on the area to be augmented. They are typically made out of permanent solid materials that have been used successfully for years.

Cheek implant by Sam Naficy, MD

The cheek implants are typically inserted through hidden incisions inside the mouth, between the upper lip and the gums. The implant of the proper size and shape is then inserted through these incisions into a pocket created over the bone. After proper healing, the implants typically feel as if they are part of your own cheekbone.

What material is used for cheek augmentation?

The materials of choice for cheek augmentation are Silastic (medical-grade silicone rubber) and Gore-Tex. Because the implants rest directly on top of bone, they feel as if they were part of the bone itself. These cheek implants are stable over time and do not reabsorb so the results are permanent. As an alternative to cheek implants, fat injections may be used to augment the cheeks, although the fat may disappear over time. A cheek lift may also be used to replace the sagging cheek fat back over the cheekbones.

What type of anesthesia is used?

We use "twilight anesthesia" which is a new and innovative method of anesthesia for facial plastic surgery. Twilight anesthesia is extremely safe compared to the standard general anesthesia techniques used today. The main advantages of twilight anesthesia are: (i) it does not require putting a breathing tube in the throat, (ii) it does not require a breathing machine, (iii) the recovery is much faster, (iv) there is much less "hang-over" from anesthesia, (v) and there is much less nausea. All these elements translate into greater comfort and safety. Dr. Naficy has used this technique of anesthesia in several thousand plastic surgery procedures without any anesthetic complications.

During twilight anesthesia a small flexible IV (intravenous) needle is placed into one of the veins of the back of the hand. Through this IV line, relaxing medication is given to make you fall sleep. The amount of medication given is adjusted to the specific needs of each person. After you are sleeping, some numbing medicine is also placed in the skin to numb the area that is being operated on. The beauty of twilight anesthesia is that during the procedure you are unaware of anything going on and cannot hear anything, yet you are still breathing on your own.

When the procedure is finished, the relaxing medication is discontinued and you begin to wake up. Because the medications used in twilight anesthesia clear the system rather quickly, most of our patients are able to go home in less than 15 minutes after the procedure is completed.

What is the recovery like?

The cheeks may feel tight, swollen and chewing may be uncomfortable in the days following the surgery. Pain medication is used to lessen discomfort. Movement of the mouth and hard chewing should be limited. Stitches in the mouth dissolve in approximately 10 days. The majority of the swelling subsides quickly, although the results of the surgery may not be plainly visible for as long as 3 or 4 months.

He will tell you whether you are a suitable candidate for this procedure and inform you of the alternatives and potential risks of the procedure.
