Lifting & Lipogems: Surgery of Tomorrow (Patient Testimony)

"My name is Patrizia and I'm pleased to share my experience with this procedure, as it represented a transformative experience for me.

The procedure itself was remarkably straightforward. The most challenging aspect was making the initial decision and accepting the need for intervention.

After multiple consultations with various surgeons, I repeatedly attempted to address the concerns with dermal fillers and skin tightening treatments. However, the results were temporary, requiring repeated interventions and affecting my confidence.

Upon consulting Professor Tremolada, recommended by an acquaintance, he proposed a facelift. Initially, I was skeptical, questioning the recommendation at age 39. However, his assessment was accurate - the ptosis around the perioral region and mandibular border required lifting rather than volume augmentation, which risked further compromising the lower facial aesthetics.

The prospect initially caused significant anxiety: I associated facelifts with extensive procedures for older demographics. I anticipated prolonged post-operative recovery with extensive bandaging and visible surgical hardware.

Professor Tremolada's assurance of next-day mobility with minimal covering seemed improbable. His international surgical reputation and expertise were well-documented. The photographic documentation of similar cases demonstrated remarkable results at 24 hours post-procedure.

He detailed how these accelerated recoveries were facilitated by Lipogems, his patented regenerative technology, utilizing autologous micro-fragmented adipose tissue to treat facial tissues and surgical sites, enhancing healing processes.

I opted for the facelift with Lipogems integration due to the local anesthesia protocol, approximate two-hour duration, and potential return to professional activities within days.

Despite initial apprehension, the procedure was painless. Standard dental procedures typically involve more discomfort.

Recovery commenced within two hours, with brief post-operative monitoring. A compression dressing protected the minimal periauricular incisions, with immediate visible improvement in facial contours, notably without cutaneous trauma.

At the following day's assessment, removal of compression dressing revealed optimal results with minimal periauricular edema. The incisions were precisely placed within natural auricular folds, with minimal suture visibility. Standard bob-length hair provided adequate camouflage, enabling social activities that evening.

"Facelift procedures without Lipogems integration are becoming obsolete, as the technology optimizes recovery intervals, enhances outcomes, and provides progressive improvement." - Professor Carlo Tremolada
