Q/A: Injectables

Patient Question: Injectables are rumored to last only a short while, are there some procedures MPS offers that provide a longer-term?


Dr. Marotta’s Response: An alternative to temporary injectable treatments is microfat transfer. In microfat transfer, I take microdroplets of fat from the abdomen, inner or outer thighs or buttocks and transfer the fat in multiple fines passes into areas of facial atrophy that occur with aging or that are due to congenital facial asymmetries. The benefits of microfat transfer over fillers are many including utilizing your own natural tissue, an unlimited supply of fat filler material, and more lasting correction of facial aging or asymmetries on the order of 5 years or even permanent. Fat also contains a high percentage of stem cells and, while not yet proven, we believe that microfat transfer may even cause new collagen to generate improving the skin’s appearance for years following fat injections.

  3. Endoscopic Mid Facelift is a proprietary procedure performed only by Doctor, which corrects mild and extensive jowling. Doctor performed the surgery under Local Anesthesia with minimal sedation, which contributes to a quicker recovery and is safer than General Anesthesia.
