Hyaluronic acid is a macromolecule with volumizing and moisturizing properties. Its current uses in aesthetic medicine include correcting fine lines and wrinkles, restoring volume to the cheekbones and oval of the face, and filling nasolabial folds.While this treatment can temporarily correct the signs of aging, it cannot treat the cause. Repeated maintenance injections in the same areas will eventually cause facial swelling. Hyaluronic acid is a monophasic molecule that does not integrate with tissues over time.Hyaluronic acid is not suitable for treating dark circles, as theTyndall effect ends up creating bags under the eyes, with a rather unsightly swollen, bluish effect.Fat injection is the only real and lasting solution to the hollowing of the eye area.

Thanks to recent advances in aesthetics, it is now possible to minimally invasively harvest fat and purify it using unique microcentrifugation and nanofiltration techniques.These manipulations ensure that the fat is pure and of better quality. In addition, the use of small cannulas.As an autologous technique, there is no risk of rejection, since no foreign body is introduced.The aim of fat transfer is to restore volume to the face. While the areas to be treated are determined according to each patient’s needs, fat reinjection is often used to fill dark circles, hollows under the eyes, temples, cheeks and cheekbones.Fat can also be used to fill nasolabial folds, the wrinkles around the mouth.The results are discreet, natural and long-lasting, which often makes it a preferable option to hyaluronic acid injections: with fat micro-injections, long-lasting volumizing effects are achieved.In fact, the fat ages with the patient, for definitive, natural results.

The harvesting and reinjection of autologous fat has opened up a wide range of possibilities. Fat cells contain stem cells. When this fat is processed, the adipocytes are removed, leaving only the stem cells.In aesthetic medicine, acting on stem cells means acting on the cause of aging, not just its symptomatology. The skin is deeply regenerated, its texture and quality improved.Today, cell therapy offers hope for a large number of medical specialties.

Dr. Hayot always begins with an initial consultation. An interview and a precise examination of your face help determine your needs, and together you decide on the most appropriate treatments.Dr Hayot is developing instruments that make it easier to perform aesthetic medicine with fat. A small amount of fat is removed under local anaesthetic. Dr Hayot is also developing filters to defibrillate the fat in situ before injection, as well as instruments to liquefy the fat at will so that it can be worked on much more finely.The anesthetic is local and the use of very fine needles makes it a gentle treatment.Micro-injections of fat can be performed in conjunction with other aesthetic procedures, such as blepharoplasty, to achieve harmonious facial rejuvenation.

Dr Hayot always gives you a customized estimate during your first consultation. The fee varies according to the procedures and techniques indicated for each case.
