A traditional face lift pulls the skin in the wrong direction. Dr. Renato Calabria offers the extra cell enhanced facelift that can help women appear years younger without going under the knife. After removing fat from a patient’s abdomen via liposuction, Dr. Calabria separates stem cells from fat cells and injects the stem cells into the patient’s face. There, the cells jumpstart the rejuvenating phase, improving the look and texture of the face. By injecting regenerated stem cells, Dr. Calabria can replace volume that has been lost in many areas of the face. The controversy regarding stem cells doesn’t apply to the extra cell procedure because the cells used in this procedure are adult stem cells, not embryonic stem cells. This type of enhanced facelift has the ability to be long-lasting because of its natural ability to revitalize the face. Dr. Calabria believes this procedure to be a “major breakthrough in plastic surgery.”
