Lipofilling Stuttgart

Who is lipofilling suitable for?

Lipofilling (autologous fat treatment) in Stuttgart is suitable for people who are looking for a gentle method for wrinkle treatment, skin rejuvenation or volume enhancement. Lipofilling can be a sensible alternative, especially if you want to avoid foreign materials such as fillers or implants. After healing, the fat cells remain in the body permanently, so you can look forward to long-term results after your procedure in Stuttgart. This feature makes lipofilling a good choice if you want to avoid regular top-ups as with a filler treatment.

What are the advantages of lipofilling in Stuttgart?

Autologous fat treatment is a proven and gentle procedure with which we can treat wrinkles and restore age-related lost volume in the face in Stuttgart. Autologous fat can also be used in other areas of the body to increase volume and for targeted body shaping.

Compared to synthetic materials, autologous fat or lipofilling has a number of advantages. As the body's own material, it is particularly well tolerated. Incompatibilities and rejection reactions can therefore be ruled out. There is also no risk of nodule formation.

Autologous fat not only creates volume during lipofilling, but also contains a high concentration of stem cells and natural growth factors. This enables a lasting regenerative effect to be achieved in Stuttgart that goes beyond simply increasing volume.

Once the fatty tissue has grown, it remains permanently in the target region. You can therefore look forward to long-lasting and absolutely natural results after your lipofilling in Stuttgart. In other areas of the body, unwanted fat deposits can be permanently removed as we obtain the required fatty tissue using liposuction.

Areas of application for autologous fat

We use lipofilling in Stuttgart to treat wrinkles and build up volume in the face, among other things. Here we can counteract the first signs of ageing by compensating for volume loss and filling wrinkles of varying depths using injections. Targeted modeling of individual areas is also possible in Stuttgart, for example if lip augmentation is desired.

We also use autologous fat for breast augmentation in Stuttgart if you reject implants or have had problems with them in the past. A combined breast augmentation with autologous fat and implants can also be useful depending on the initial situation.

Autologous fat can also be used for buttock augmentation in Stuttgart. One example of this is the Brazilian butt lift, in which we use the body's own fatty tissue alone to enlarge the buttocks. This method is ideal for patients who want comprehensive and precise body shaping with redistribution of fatty tissue.

Lipofilling in Stuttgart is also suitable for scar correction and hand rejuvenation if the hands have lost volume over the years. This can make the hands look bony and aged. The veins also often protrude unsightly, which can be corrected with an autologous fat injection (lipofilling).

How does lipofilling in Stuttgart work?

Before your treatment in Stuttgart, Dr. Schumacher will discuss with you whether your desired result can be achieved using autologous fat transfer (lipofilling). It is also important to discuss which areas are suitable for fat removal. Typical problem areas such as the hips, stomach or thighs are ideal if you would like to get rid of a few stubborn fat deposits anyway. Lipofilling in Stuttgart takes around 1 - 2 hours depending on the procedure and can often be performed under local anesthetic. For larger procedures, we recommend a general anesthetic in Stuttgart under certain circumstances. The required autologous fat is first obtained by liposuction and then prepared so that it can be used for the autologous fat treatment. Dr. Schumacher carefully injects the prepared fat cells into the regions where volume is to be created. He initially uses more fat tissue than would be required for the desired result. Some of the fat cells are broken down again after the treatment. Dr. Schumacher takes this into account in his planning. After around 3 - 6 months, we can assess the result and, if necessary, carry out further treatment.

What do I need to consider after lipofilling?

After lipofilling in Stuttgart, you should allow yourself plenty of rest and refrain from exercise for at least 14 days. You will be fitted with a special compression garment in the areas where the fat was removed, which promotes optimal treatment results and should be worn for around 4 - 6 weeks. Heat and sun are to be avoided in the initial period, as is any pressure on the areas where autologous fat has been transplanted.

What are the risks of lipofilling?

Every operation carries certain risks - and lipofilling is no exception. In Stuttgart, however, we carry out all procedures in compliance with strict safety and hygiene standards so that you can enjoy a high level of treatment safety.

There is no risk of allergic reactions or intolerances with autologous fat treatment. No foreign substances are used.

The greatest risk is that not enough transplanted fat cells grow. In this case, lipofilling in Stuttgart can be repeated. However, Dr. Schumacher also takes a certain loss of volume into account during the planning of the operation in Stuttgart and injects a slightly larger amount of autologous fat accordingly.
