Stem Cell Face Lift: What is it?

Stem Cell Face Lift: Latest Innovation in Plastic Surgery

Stem cell face lift is the latest innovation in plastic surgery and face lift. It is a non-invasive procedure that uses the patient’s own stem cells to be injected to their facial tissues. It is the result of recent innovation in the study of fatty acids and stem cells.

Plastic surgeons have found out that the fats that are being taken out during liposuction contain concentrated amount of adult stem cells. When the fat cells and stem cells are separated, the stem cells are transplanted to the facial tissues. This is what happens during a stem cell face lift procedure.

Research has shown that when stem cells are placed next to damaged or old skin, the damaged skin will rejuvenate and produce new cells that will auto-repair it.

What happens after Stem Cell Face Lift

A skin that is old and saggy can be repaired by stem cells. When stem cells are injected into the facial skin, the result is that the skin becomes more younger looking. Other results are improved skin complexion and repair of wrinkles and freckles and other signs of aging that can be seen on a person’s face.

The cost of stem cell facelift doesn’t go far from the cost of traditional surgical facelift. It doesn’t need specialized equipment. The procedure involves producing a 2 cm incision in the patient’s love handles, putting out the fatty tissue in the love handles, separating the fat from the stem cells and then re-injecting the stem cells to the facial tissue.

After the procedure, the stem cell will do the reconstruction, repair and rejuvenation of the patient’s facial skin. Unlike traditional facelift and Juvaderm treatment, stem cell facelift is very safe and offer natural results. This is mainly because the stem cells that are used came from the patient’s own body.
