innovationsmedical.com 1st Physician in Dallas/ Fort Worth to offer Activated Fat Transfer w/ PRP 90% Fat Cell Survival now with PRP Activated Fat Transfer Dr. Bill Johnson of Innovations Medical in Dallas, Tx What is FAMI (Facial Fat Transfer)? FAMI is an acronym for Fat Autograft Muscle Injection. FAMI represents a minimally invasive, fat transfer procedure that addresses the loss of fat that people see in their faces over years of aging. Dr. Johnson harvests fat from areas you do not want it, refines it, and then carefully re-injects it into specific areas of your face. It is truly a mixture of science and art, and in turn, offers a worthy substitution for fillers or face lifts. Dr. Johnson plans the procedure by comparing a current photo of the patient to a photo of the patient when they were 18-20 years old. At 18-20, our bodies have the most fat in the facial areas, and photos from this age provide accurate representations of what was, and what could be after fat transfer. At Innovations Medical, all FAMI procedures are done while awake, under local anesthesia. This technique allows the patient to walk out of the office and lessen post procedure downtime. FAMI is different from other Fat Transfer procedures. Traditional fat transfer, also called autologus fat transplantation, has been around for a couple decades. Though the idea has stayed the same, the techniques and processes have changed dramatically. FAMI brings a new way of thinking to the fat transfer ...
