It is reasonable to want natural-looking volume without surgery, a long recovery, or a liposuction harvest. If you have been researching fat grafting, you may be wondering whether there is a less invasive option, and alloClae may be the answer. This first-of-its-kind structural adipose (fat) filler uses donor-derived fat tissue to add volume, shape, and support where you need it, without requiring you to have enough of your own fat for a traditional transfer.
At Advanced Concepts in Plastic Surgery, our plastic surgeon believes every patient deserves a solution that fits their body and their life. With over 28 years of experience, Dr. Koneru will take the time to understand your goals and determine whether alloClae in San Antonio is the right non-surgical treatment for you.
Traditional fat grafting involves harvesting adipose from your own body through liposuction, processing it, and transferring it to the target area. While that works well for many patients, it requires them to have enough donor fat, adds procedure time, and comes with a longer recovery period.
AlloClae is different. It is sterile, donor-derived adipose tissue that has been carefully processed to preserve its natural three-dimensional structure, including the foundation that supports fat cells, proteins, and collagen, for lasting results.
As alloClae is ready to use, Dr. Koneru can perform the treatment in our San Antonio office with minimal downtime. You will see an immediate increase in volume after the procedure, and the material works as a temporary framework to encourage your body’s healing process. This makes alloClae a strong option if you want real, lasting improvement without committing to surgery.
AlloClae will work best for you if you are in good health, at or near your goal weight, and not currently smoking. It is a particularly good option if you want to add volume or improve the outline of your buttocks, hips, or breasts but do not have enough donor fat for a traditional transfer or do not want to get liposuction. AlloClae can also address unevenness left behind after prior procedures.
Dr. Koneru will review your goals and health history at your consultation to confirm whether alloClae is the right choice. We also offer convenient telemed consultations for alloClae if you need some flexibility in visiting our San Antonio office.
Dr. Koneru will perform the procedure at our San Antonio office by injecting the alloClae under your skin where natural fat already exists. The injection does not require general anesthesia. In the days following the treatment, you may experience some mild bruising or swelling, but most patients return to their normal routines quickly.
A single treatment of alloClae is typically enough to reach your goals because it is natural adipose rather than a synthetic filler. As long as you maintain your weight, you can expect long-lasting results.
