title: Autologous fat augmentation for addressing facial volume loss.
abstract: Autologous fat augmentation is in vogue again. The realization that traditional cosmetic surgery has often failed to achieve a truly rejuvenated look has refocused attention on volume replacement. Autologous fat is truly the ideal filler, being available in relative abundance, nonimmunogenic, a living tissue, and able to take on the properties of the area into which it is infiltrated. This article describes the author's technique that has been used on more that 200 patients over a 4-year period.
