Is Lipoderma™ Right for You?
Lipoderma™ may be an excellent option if you feel your skin has lost some of its natural fullness, smoothness, or glow and you want a solution that looks and feels completely natural. Many patients come to us after noticing subtle changes such as early facial hollowing, dullness, crepey skin, or fine lines that seem to deepen over time. Others are frustrated that skincare, serums, or non-invasive treatments are not giving them the level of improvement they hoped for. Lipoderma™ offers a regenerative approach by using your own purified fat cells to rejuvenate the skin from within, helping to restore healthy volume, improve texture, and create a brighter, more youthful appearance. If you’re looking for a treatment that blends seamlessly with your features, yields long-lasting results, and avoids synthetic fillers or extensive downtime, Lipoderma™ may be the perfect match for your aesthetic goals.
Who Is a Candidate for Lipoderma™?
A good candidate for Lipoderma™ is someone in overall good health who wants natural-looking facial or skin rejuvenation without relying on traditional fillers or invasive surgery. Patients with early to moderate signs of aging—such as deflated cheeks, under-eye hollowness, thinning skin, or uneven texture—often benefit greatly from this technique. It is also ideal for individuals who have experienced volume loss after pregnancy, weight fluctuation, or general aging, and want a treatment that enhances their appearance while feeling authentic to their own features. Because Lipoderma™ uses your own fat cells, it is a safe and biocompatible option for people seeking a gentle, regenerative enhancement. Whether you want to refresh your complexion, smooth specific areas, or subtly restore youthful contours, Lipoderma™ can be tailored to your anatomy and goals to create a naturally rejuvenated look. read more
What Is Lipoderma™?
Lipoderma™ is an advanced, non-surgical rejuvenation treatment that harnesses the power of your own purified fat cells to restore youthful fullness and improve the overall quality of your skin. The process begins with harvesting a very small amount of fat from a discreet area of the body, which is then carefully engineered to isolate the most active, regenerative components. These purified cells are gently injected into the face or other areas that need refinement, where they work to smooth texture, soften lines, enhance volume, and promote healthier, more radiant skin from the inside out. Unlike traditional fillers, which use synthetic materials, Lipoderma™ relies entirely on your body’s own natural tissue, making it exceptionally safe, long-lasting, and seamlessly integrated with your features. This innovative technique allows patients to achieve a refreshed, youthful appearance with subtle, elegant results and minimal downtime.
Types of Lipoderma™
Lipoderma™ Volume Restoration
This technique focuses on restoring soft, natural volume to areas that appear hollow or deflated, such as the cheeks, under-eyes, or temples. It provides subtle lift and structural support while maintaining a natural, seamless look.
Lipoderma™ Skin Rejuvenation
Designed to improve texture, tone, and overall skin quality, this approach uses purified fat cells to stimulate repair from within. It helps soften fine lines, smooth roughness, and bring back a youthful, radiant glow.
Lipoderma™ Crepey Skin Treatment
This method targets thin or crepey skin on areas like the lower face, neck, or décolletage. The regenerative fat cells help thicken and strengthen the skin, making it smoother, firmer, and healthier-looking over time.
Scar and Texture Refinement
For patients with acne scars, surgical scars, or uneven skin texture, this version of Lipoderma™ uses micro-fat to improve surface irregularities. It works beneath the skin to create smoother, more uniform contours.
Lipoderma™ Fine Line Softening
This treatment is ideal for delicate areas where traditional fillers may appear unnatural. The refined fat cells soften fine lines around the eyes, mouth, and other high-movement zones in a subtle, long-lasting way.
Lipoderma™ Facial Contour Enhancement
Used for shaping and contouring features like the jawline, chin, or midface, this approach enhances definition while keeping your results looking natural and balanced.

The procedure is performed in-office, is minimally invasive, and is designed to be comfortable from start to finish.

There is no significant downtime, allowing you to resume your routine while your skin gradually becomes smoother, firmer, and more youthful in the weeks that follow. Dr. Tehrani will provide personalized aftercare guidance to ensure optimal healing and long-lasting results.
Frequently
Asked Questions
What is Lipoderma™ and how does it work?
Lipoderma™ is a regenerative skin and facial rejuvenation treatment that uses your own purified fat cells to restore youthful volume, improve texture, and enhance skin quality. A very small amount of fat is collected from a donor area, processed using advanced engineering to isolate the most active and healthy fat cells, and then strategically injected into the areas of the face that need rejuvenation. Once placed, these cells naturally integrate with your own tissue and stimulate gradual improvements in softness, elasticity, and radiance. Because the treatment relies on your own biology, the results look exceptionally natural and continue to improve as the fat cells settle and the skin repairs itself from within.
How is Lipoderma™ different from traditional fillers?
Lipoderma™ differs from traditional fillers in that it uses your own fat rather than synthetic substances. This creates a more natural texture, softer transitions, and long-lasting rejuvenation without the risk of allergic reactions or foreign-body responses. Fillers tend to dissipate over time and may require frequent maintenance, while Lipoderma™ offers a more durable solution that supports long-term skin quality. Many patients also prefer the biological approach, as it enhances both volume and texture instead of simply adding temporary fullness. The result is a more refined, authentic, and balanced appearance that blends seamlessly with your natural features.
Am I a good candidate for Lipoderma™?
You may be a strong candidate for Lipoderma™ if you are in good health, do not smoke, and want to rejuvenate your appearance using a natural, minimally invasive method. Patients who have noticed subtle hollowing in the cheeks or temples, early aging around the eyes, dull skin tone, or crepey texture often see meaningful improvement with this treatment. It is also ideal for people who prefer an alternative to fillers or who feel that skincare alone is not addressing deeper structural changes. During your consultation, Dr. Tehrani will evaluate your anatomy, medical history, and goals to determine if Lipoderma™ is the most effective option for you.
What kind of results can I expect from Lipoderma™?
Lipoderma™ produces a soft, natural enhancement that restores youthful contours, brightens the complexion, and visibly improves skin texture. You can expect smoother skin, subtle volume restoration, and a healthier overall glow. Early swelling may make the results appear fuller at first, but as the fat settles, the outcome becomes beautifully balanced and refined. Because the treatment uses living cells, improvements continue to evolve gradually as the skin regenerates and the fat integrates. The final results typically look incredibly natural and maintain their appearance for a long period with proper care.
Is the Lipoderma™ procedure painful?
Most patients describe the Lipoderma™ procedure as very tolerable. The areas used for fat collection and injection are numbed with local anesthesia to ensure comfort throughout the treatment. You may feel gentle pressure or slight movement during the process, but it should not be painful. After the treatment, mild soreness or tenderness may occur in the donor area or the injected regions, but this is temporary and resolves quickly. Patients are usually surprised at how easy the experience feels from start to finish.
What is the recovery like after Lipoderma™?
Recovery after Lipoderma™ is generally fast and simple. Most patients return to work and daily routines within the same day or shortly afterward. Mild swelling, bruising, or firmness may appear in the injected areas or the donor site, but these effects are temporary and improve over several days. There is no need for major downtime, and normal light activity can usually be resumed immediately. Dr. Tehrani will provide specific aftercare instructions to support optimal healing and ensure that the fat cells integrate properly.
How long do Lipoderma™ results last?
One of the key benefits of Lipoderma™ is its longevity. Because the treatment uses your own living fat cells, a portion of these cells will naturally graft and remain in the treated areas long-term. Once the cells have integrated, the results can last for many years. While individual outcomes vary, most patients experience long-lasting improvement in both volume and skin quality. Natural aging will continue, but the treated areas typically maintain a more youthful and healthy appearance compared to untreated skin.
Can Lipoderma™ treat multiple areas at once?
Yes, Lipoderma™ can be used to rejuvenate several areas during a single treatment. Many patients choose to address a combination of concerns such as under-eye hollowness, cheek deflation, temple volume loss, lip fine lines, or general facial dullness. Because the treatment uses purified fat cells, it can be precisely placed in delicate areas where fillers may appear too heavy or unnatural. This allows for a more harmonious, whole-face improvement that enhances the overall balance of your features.
Are there risks or side effects associated with Lipoderma™?
While Lipoderma™ is generally very safe, especially since it uses your own tissue, minor side effects can occur. These may include temporary swelling, bruising, mild discomfort, or slight numbness in the treated or donor areas. Serious complications are rare but may include infection or irregularities in fat distribution. Choosing a highly experienced provider like Dr. Tehrani significantly minimizes these risks. During your consultation, he will review your medical history, discuss potential considerations, and ensure you feel informed and confident moving forward.
How much does Lipoderma™ cost?
The cost of Lipoderma™ varies based on the specific areas being treated, the amount of fat required, and your overall aesthetic goals. Because every treatment is customized, pricing will be discussed during your consultation once your individualized plan has been created. Lipoderma™ often represents a strong value for patients, as it provides both immediate improvement and long-lasting results without the ongoing maintenance associated with synthetic fillers. Dr. Tehrani’s team will help you understand your options clearly and provide transparent guidance tailored to your needs.
