Scar free facelift-Voluma

The working mode of the Voluma facelift is reshaping of ptotic facial soft tissues.

The concept is to retore a more youthfuul facial anatomy naturally.
It is far less traumatc than conventional facelifts and, the results are more natural and is if far less traumatic than a „conventional“ facelift.

Usually I take a fat graft , usually from the abdomen. Fat grafts have historically been a very troublesome and lengthy procedure, requiring extensive centrifugation of grafts.

The Body Jet technique, which uses a waterbeam irrigation suction system to harvest such fat grafts, has changed this dramatically, and has converted fat grafting into a very swift and straightforward procedure. With the Body jet technique graft take rates are excellent.

In areas of saggy skin, mostly the nasolabial folds and the neck, we add the Smartlipo technique, which is able to add some significant skin retraction of about 25%.

The whole voluma facelift procedure takes about one hour and is done under local anesthetic.
Pateints can go home immediately afterwards. There are no scars.

In my current practice, about 50-60 % of patients wanting a facelift are suitable for this technique, and , in fact, I find that satisfaction rates of these patients are somewhat higher than with „conventional“ facelift techniques with scars.
