Is autologous fat augmentation for the forehead effective?

Many female friends feel that they do not have enough flesh on their foreheads, so they want to use their own fat to inject into their foreheads. This is a very common micro-surgery technique, and this method can reduce the body's rejection. The effect of forehead augmentation with fat injection is still very good, but the prerequisite is that it needs to be performed in a regular hospital. Do not be tempted to save money and go to a small clinic for such an operation.

Introduction

Autologous fat augmentation refers to a surgical method in which fat from areas of the body with rich fat, such as the abdomen, buttocks, thighs or upper arms, is sucked out using a wet vacuum liposuction method, and after special processing into pure fat particles, the fat is injected into the defective recipient area that needs to be changed in order to change and perfect the shape of the recipient area. It is simple to operate, safe, reliable and easy to survive.

Autologous fat augmentation for forehead is done by extracting autologous fat. The location of fat extraction is mainly selected based on the patient's physical condition. During the operation, only some fat needs to be selectively extracted from fat-rich areas of the body. After strict filtration and purification and accurate calculation of the usage, it is evenly injected into the forehead to achieve the effect of forehead augmentation. But in fact, research has found that the survival rate of autologous fat transplantation is not very high, between 40% and 60%. The transplanted fat tissue may be absorbed by the original tissue or it may liquefy and necrotize.

Surgical procedures

1. Preparation before forehead augmentation surgery: determine the range, shape and thickness of temporal filling.

2. Choice of incision for forehead augmentation: Facial filling can be done through incisions inside the hairline, above the eyebrows, etc. Full forehead filling can be done through a coronal incision on the scalp or bilateral temporal incisions.

3. Forehead augmentation procedure: accurate layer peeling, proper and flat placement of fillers, and fixed pressure bandage.

4. Postoperative treatment of forehead augmentation: Use antibiotics to prevent infection.

5. Try to avoid complications: infection, hematoma, rejection of fillings, dissatisfaction with appearance, etc. Discover and deal with it promptly.

Surgical results

Injecting autologous fat into the temporal area will not affect or change the function of tissues or organs. After the injection, people around you just feel that it is more pleasing to the eye and more beautiful, but they cannot tell what has changed.

As for the effect of autologous fat augmentation for the forehead, experts say that the transplant is autologous tissue, and its biological properties are far superior to any prosthetic material. Therefore, it is harmless to the body and will not produce immune or rejection reactions. It will not cause changes in the human body's endocrine environment, will not harm the breast itself, and will not have adverse effects on future fertility and breastfeeding. Fat particle transplantation is relatively easy to obtain and the tissue sources are abundant. After healing, the scar is very small and located in a hidden place.
