Stem Cell Face and Body Rejuvenation

Even with modern technological and scientific innovations in cosmetic enhancement, the most powerful tool for giving you the radiant health and youthful appearance you have always wanted is located within your own body.  Fat Transfer procedures use your own fat to restore volume and create a more youthful appearance to the face, hands, breasts, buttocks, and other areas of the body. These results can be enhanced further by including the body’s own naturally-derived stem cells. Los Angeles based Cosmetic Surgeon Dr. Berger recommends including stem cells in Fat Transfer procedures including Natural Breast Augmentation to promote the viability and longevity of fat grafts, and to aid in the healing process.

What are Stem Cells?

When most people hear the words “stem cells,” they think of the embryonic stem cells that were the subject of so much controversy and debate in recent years. The stem cells used in these procedures are not derived from embryos.  The procedure uses Adult Stem Cells, which are abundant and easily derived from our own fat.  These naturally occurring regenerative cells can differentiate into specialized cell types, and self-renew to produce more stem cells. Stem cells have gained a lot of attention in the media and scientific communities for their incredible potential for treating an astonishing number of serious illnesses and injuries, including stroke, Alzheimer’s Disease, spinal cord injuries and several types of cancer. The secret lies in the stem cell’s ability to repair damaged tissue and generate new cells, and to promote damaged cells to repair themselves and also take part in the repair process. These same remarkable healing properties show incredible benefits for cosmetic enhancement, and can promote better graft survival and durability to improve the overall aesthetic results.

Benefits of Including Stem Cells in a Fat Transfer:

• Grow new blood vessels to nourish the fat
• Release anti-inflammatory agents to aid healing
• Generate and release growth factors that support graft survival
• Improve skin tightening and rejuvenation
• No risk of allergic or adverse reaction
• A cutting edge option used around the world today!

How does Fat Transfer Work?

To perform stem cell enhanced fat transfers, fat is first extracted right here at our Los Angeles office location under local anesthesia, using our Advanced Liposuction techniques. This fat is then placed into a centrifuge to isolate the stem cells, which are then concentrated and enriched with a special process. The stem cells are then reintegrated with the fat, which is gently reinjected to fill or plump the desired areas. Including the stem cells in the fat transfer procedure further enhances already dramatic and natural results, much like adding fertilizer will enhance the growth and beauty of a garden.

Is Fat Transfer Safe?

Fat Transfer is quick and simple outpatient procedure, using only local anesthesia. The procedures are non-surgical and minimally-invasive, involving only minimal discomfort. The recovery after fat transfer is minimal, and most patients are able to return to work and their normal routine the very next day. Because the fat is derived from your own body, there is no risk of allergic reaction, as may be the case with other injectable fillers.

Where Can it be Used?

• Facial Rejuvenation. As we age, our facial skin loses its natural collagen and elastin, resulting in a loss of firmness and elasticity, which can lead to fine lines, wrinkles, and dull, sagging skin. Diminishing muscle tone can lead to drooping of the brow, forehead, and cheeks. All of these changes can make the face appear significantly older. There is a solution! Injecting fat enriched with stem cells allows you to recapture a more youthful, vibrant appearance by lifting the eyebrows, cheeks and/or jowls, and restoring volume, tightness and elasticity to your skin. You will see results comparable to a traditional facelift, without the cost, risks and pain of surgery. The results look natural, because you are simply replacing lost fat with more of your own, natural material. Learn more
• Natural Breast Augmentation. Natural Breast Augmentationin Los Angeles is Quickly Becoming a Popular Alternative to Invasive Breast Augmentation Surgery.

  Women everywhere are looking for ways to increase the size and improve the shape of their breasts, but many are put off by the invasive procedures of traditional cosmetic surgeries.  Invasive, surgical breast augmentation using saline or silicone implants is a thing of the past. Natural Breast Augmentation uses a simple fat transfer procedure to add natural volume and increase breast size by one to two cup sizes. The results look and feel completely natural, because they are completely natural. There are no stitches or scarring, and there is no risk of the breasts looking “fake” as with traditional implants. If you are ready to have the full, well-contoured breasts you have always dreamed of without the cost, risk, and discomfort of traditional surgery, Natural Breast Augmentation may be right for you.

• Hand Volumizing. Other than your face, your hands are one of the first parts of your body to show signs of aging. With age, volume and skin elasticity decline, giving the appearance of loose, wrinkly skin. Let us give you a hand! Stem cell enhanced fat transfers make it possible to naturally restore the hands’ volume and skin tightness. The procedure is designed to take years off of your hands’ appearance, and the results are natural and dramatic. Learn more
• Buttocks Augmentation. Loose, sagging skin and/or loss of volume with a flattening of the buttocks curve can be the result of substantial weight loss or a normal effect of aging. Diet and exercise alone are often not enough to achieve the toned, firm, more youthful, proportioned and full shaped buttocks most people have always wanted. With a quick and simple Fat Transfer procedure, volume can be added to carefully targeted areas of the buttocks to significantly improve tone, firmness, and contour. Since the filler used is your own natural fat, the results look and feel completely natural. Fat transfer can also be used for Cellulite Reduction to correct deep dimpling and rippling. Learn more
