Facial liposculpture

Facial Plast Surg. 2006 May;22(2):147-53. doi: 10.1055/s-2006-947721.

Abstract

Modern advances in rejuvenation of the aging face have minimized morbidity and recovery time and maximized natural aesthetic results. Liposuction and autologous fat transfer techniques have emerged as popular methods to achieve these ends. Used alone, or in conjunction with other modalities, lipocontouring will likely continue to play a prominent role in facial aesthetic and reconstructive surgery.
