Revitalize a sunken and tired face: Facial filler [Plastic Surgeon - Dr. Hsin-Yu Chen]

Causes of facial aging
There are two main factors contributing to facial aging: one is...tissue relaxationSecondlyOrganizational attritionA young face has many strong ligaments that act like a suspension net, tightly fixing the skin to the facial bones, making it look firm. However, as we age and due to gravity, these ligaments and skin gradually stretch and lose elasticity, causing the entire face to sag.
On the other hand, a beautiful, youthful face is plump and smooth, but as we age, collagen and fat are lost, facial bones degenerate, and the original supporting structures loosen, causing a redistribution of soft tissue on the face, resulting in many depressions, especially in the tear troughs, nasolabial folds, and sagging fat, such as around the mouth. Additionally, some people are born with more facial depressions due to variations in soft tissue or bone structure, making them appear more tired and aged.

Autologous fat grafting has been one of the hottest topics in the last decade or so, because adipose tissue contains not only active fat cells but also mesenchymal stem cells that can secrete various growth factors and cytokines. Scientific research has found that adipose stem cells can activate cell repair mechanisms, regulate the local immune system, promote angiogenesis, prevent cell apoptosis, and stimulate tissue regeneration. Therefore, it is widely used in wound treatment and cell regeneration. It is also an excellent material for tissue filling. Although the initial absorption rate is 50%, once the adipose tissue survives, it can remain for a long time without deliberate weight loss, and because it is the patient's own tissue, there is no rejection.
