Rejuvenative facial lipomorphoplasty.
Aging of the face is staged. Rejuvenation by restoration of structural volume deficit with sedimented autogenous fat micrografts harvested by gentle syringe lipoaspiration is described. Atraumatic technique, avoidance of desiccation, and gentleness in handling the fat micrografts are required for successful vascularization and take of the grafts.
