  • AAMSSA Recommendations Use of Fat for Regenerative Purposes in Aesthetic Medicine Issued 2 September 2020
    AAMSSA Recommendations Use of Fat for regenerative purposes in Aesthetic Medicine Issued 2 September 2020 Introduction Autologous fat cell grafting is becoming more accessible as a popular, effective, and reproducible technique in many fields of medicine. The regenerative potential of fat has been used in many fields of medicine such as Plastic Surgery, Orthopedic Surgery and Gynaecology, and is touted as the future of Regenerative and Aesthetic Medicine. The rapid growth of the use of Nanofat and Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) in the non-surgical fields has revolutionized the use of fat for its cellular and regenerative properties. The more recent development of simple syringe systems for harvesting fat has brought the use of fat regeneration within the scope of the Dermatologist and Aesthetic Practitioner. However there is a lot of misunderstanding about the different forms of fat harvesting and processing as well as confusion over terms. There is also little regulation over scope of practice regarding which doctors can safely perform these procedures. This guideline explains and clarifies the terminology used in regenerative medicine and outlines the AAMSSA recommendations for Aesthetic GP’s when working with fat. GP’s with a special interest in Aesthetic Medicine need to clearly understand their scope of practice and work within safe boundaries. Terminology It is important that Aesthetic Practitioners understand the different types of fat grafting and forms of fat used, as well as the different means of harvesting and processing fat. There are three forms of fat used in autologous fat transfer. Nanofat which is used for cellular rejuvenation purposes is to be differentiated from Microfat and Macrofat which are used in lipo-filling for volume enhancement.

  • How Plexr Non Surgical Eye Lift Procedures Have Revolutionised Eye Lift Surgery in 2017
    How Plexr non surgical eye lift procedures have revolutionised eye lift surgery in 2017 Category: Facial Aesthetic Treatments Published by Smileworks Liverpool May 26, 2017 Author: Dr MJ Rowland-Warmann Introduction The Plexr non surgical eye lift procedure has taken the UK by storm in 2017. It is now becoming more and more popular amongst patients who don’t want more invasive blepharoplasty treatments. Read on to discover everything there is to know about Plexr from Dr MJ Rowland-Warmann, one of Liverpool’s most highly qualified facial aestheticians. What is Eyelid Surgery? As people age, parts of their anatomy undergo changes which are often not welcomed. The most common complaint about a patients’ appearance is looking old, tired, and saggy. Often the eyes are a focus of this change in appearance over time and it’s true that the eyes give away your age. In some patients, hooded or tired-looking eyes are an inherited feature which worsens over time. In a society that values looking more youthful, attractive and refreshed, surgery was until recently the only real possibility to effectively rejuvenate the eyelid. Recent Trends in Cosmetic Surgery vs ‘Soft Surgery’ Subtle anti-ageing procedures are preferred these days. The number of blepharoplasty (or eyelift) surgery procedures has remained more or less static for the last 3 years. In contrast, radical surgery has significantly reduced. The number of breast augmentation procedures recorded between 2014 and 2015 dropped by a staggering 20%. According to the 2015 UK BAAPS cosmetic surgery statistics, eyelid surgery is number 2 in the top ten surgical procedures for women.

Harkaway, MD The removal of unwanted fat has been among the most popular aesthetic concerns since the advent of traditional tumescent liposuction.

The duration of a noninvasive fat reduction treatment series can be daunting. Patients have questioned the worth of these procedures when the expected benefit is modest and the time they devote to the project is significant. An eight-patient mini-study was performed to see if two or three “megasessions” could be substituted for eight weekly sessions of bipolar radiofrequency based fat reduction treatments. Patients were randomized into a two session or three session group by drawing straws. The device used was the BodyFX bipolar RF device by InMode.
