Fat Stimulator

Treatment

Fat Stimulator

A fat stimulator is an injectable treatment for areas of facial volume loss. The injection supports your own fat layer under the skin, so fullness returns gradually.

Benefits

Suitable Candidates

Procedure

Your doctor assesses the areas of volume loss and marks the injection points. A numbing cream goes on first. Your doctor then places the product under the skin with a fine needle or cannula. The session takes 30 to 45 minutes.

Recovery

Expect mild swelling, redness or small bruises for 2 to 5 days. Most people return to normal activity the same day. Skip intense exercise, heat and alcohol for 24 hours. Results build over the following weeks.

Your doctor sets the number of sessions and the spacing after assessing you.
Results build over weeks to months. Results vary between people.
Common side effects are swelling, bruising and tenderness. Rare risks include lumps and infection. Treatment by a licensed doctor lowers these risks.
