Abstract

Facial lipofilling is one of the most common procedures for aesthetic correction of age-related changes at the stages of early facial aging and advanced signs of skin and soft tissue degeneration. Despite widespread use of facial lipofilling, this technique is not standardized. Currently, there are no standards for analysis of fatty autograft volume required for correction in a particular patient. Considering literature data and own experience, we offer a versatile and fast method for individual measuring of fatty autograft volume for each patient. This non-invasive method does not require additional equipment and causes no inconvenience to the patient.
