The New Injectable That May Replace Surgery

Posted by Southern Surgical Arts on Jun 8, 2018 10:00:00 AM

Your face is the first place to show your age, particularly those changes around your eyes and cheeks. While it might feel like your face is “falling,” it’s not. You’re actually losing fat – just not in the places you would prefer. As your skin’s facial fat tissue, collagen and elastin production diminish, you lose volume, leaving it saggy and tired looking. Enter Allofill – the cutting-edge, minimally invasive, non-surgical solution to restoring your youthful appearance by adding volume back to your face.

Allofill is different from surgical fat-grafting techniques where small amounts of fat are harvested via liposuction from other parts of your body – a surgical and costly procedure that requires downtime. Allograft tissue, as it’s called, comes from screened, tested, FDA approved donor tissue that is rigorously prepped and stringently sterilized for safety. In fact, surgeons perform more than 2 million Allograft transplants in the U.S. annually as a safe, non-invasive alternative to surgical fat-grafting.

The process is easy, minimally invasive and virtually painless with no downtime. After applying a topical anesthetic to ease pain, your cosmetic surgeon injects Allofill under your skin. Results are instant and you are back to your normal routine immediately afterward; like all injectables, you may experience temporary redness, mild swelling or light bruising at the injection site. Along with instant results, Allofill naturally conforms to your body’s normal soft tissue as you heal, so you’ll continue to see amazing improvements in fullness over time that typically last several years.
