Face Lift in the Heart of Milano

Regenerative Face Lift

At Image Regenerative Clinic in Milan, the traditional facelift is reimagined as a cutting-edge procedure thanks to the integration of Lipogems®, the regenerative technology developed by Professor Carlo Tremolada. This approach combines the precision of aesthetic surgery with the power of regenerative medicine, delivering visibly enhanced and deeply rejuvenated results: redefined contours, revitalized tissues, and firmer, more radiant skin. The regenerative facelift goes beyond correcting the signs of aging, it works from within, improving the biological quality of the tissues and restoring a harmonious, natural, and long-lasting appearance to the face. A new frontier in facial regenerative surgery, for those seeking a truly authentic and personalized facial rejuvenation.

Prof. Carlo
"The primary indication for facial lifting is the anatomical and natural en bloc repositioning of all facial tissues. During the procedure, the grafting of adipose-derived stem cells (Lipogems®) enables true skin regeneration which, combined with maintenance treatments, guarantees long-lasting surgical results."
Prof.  Carlo  Tremolada

About the Treatment

Why Traditional Facelift Becomes Regenerative with Lipogems?

  • Integrated Cellular Regeneration While traditional facelift focuses on removing excess skin and repositioning tissues, this technique alone doesn't directly address skin quality or lost volume. The integration of Lipogems introduces a regenerative biological element: purified adipose tissue, rich in mesenchymal cells, is injected into treated areas to stimulate collagen production, improve elasticity, and regenerate tissues from within.
  • Natural Volumizing Effect As we age, the face loses not only tonicity but also volume. Where traditional facelift addresses laxity, Lipogems naturally restores facial contour fullness. Areas such as cheekbones, eye contours, and cheeks can be harmoniously replenished without synthetic fillers.
  • Surgery and Biotechnology Synergy The method developed by Professor Tremolada integrates perfectly with traditional surgery, enhancing its benefits. The result is not merely aesthetic but regenerative, offering visible rejuvenation and tangible improvement in skin quality.
  • Long-Term Benefits Thanks to Lipogems' regenerative properties, the facelift results extend beyond immediate improvement. Mesenchymal cells continue working over time, slowing aging processes and ensuring a youthful, fresh appearance for years to come.

Understanding the Differences: Complete, Mini, and Partial Facelifts

  • Deep Plane Facelift The Deep Plane Lift represents the most advanced and comprehensive technique in facial aesthetic surgery. This sophisticated approach addresses deep tissues and musculature, repositioning not only the skin but also the underlying tissues (SMAS - Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System). It achieves comprehensive, natural, and lasting rejuvenation, making it ideal for patients with significant skin laxity, deep wrinkles, and loss of facial contour definition.
  • Mini Facelift The Mini Facelift offers a less invasive alternative to complete lifting, designed to address early signs of aging or moderate laxity. This refined procedure primarily focuses on the lower third of the face, including jawline, cheeks, and chin, without engaging deep tissues. It particularly suits younger patients or those seeking results with minimal recovery time.
  • Partial Facelift The Partial Facelift concentrates on specific facial areas, such as the neck, cheeks, or forehead. This customized solution serves those wishing to enhance a particular zone without undergoing complete facial rejuvenation. The procedure proves especially effective for addressing localized concerns, such as neck laxity or eyebrow drooping.

Professor Carlo Tremolada's Contribution and the Lipogems Revolution at Image Clinic in Milano

Professor Carlo Tremolada, an internationally renowned surgeon and pioneer in regenerative medicine, has developed Lipogems technology, an innovative system that utilizes the patient's own adipose tissue to promote tissue regeneration. This patented device enables minimally invasive fat harvesting, purification, and re-injection while preserving valuable mesenchymal cells.

Combining traditional facelift with Lipogems treatment means uniting the effectiveness of aesthetic surgery with the extraordinary potential of regenerative medicine. Thanks to Professor Carlo Tremolada's innovative work, this combination represents not just a cutting-edge technique, but a true paradigm shift in the pursuit of eternal youth. This approach delivers a facelift that goes beyond mere 'rejuvenation' to achieve actual regeneration, ensuring natural, harmonious results that endure over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

At what age is face lifting recommended?

At any age when sagging occurs that alters facial contours. Nowadays, lifting is a simple, quick procedure with minimal impact.

How long do facelift results last?

Facelift results can last between 7 to 15 years, depending on the chosen technique and natural aging process. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and following aesthetic maintenance treatments can extend the effects.

Can a Facelift be combined with other aesthetic procedures, and what advantages does this offer?

Yes, Regenerative Facelift can be combined with procedures such as blepharoplasty, neck lifting, Lipogems for tissue regeneration, and fractional CO2 laser for skin smoothing and uniformity. This combination amplifies results, offering comprehensive rejuvenation, improving tone, elasticity, and skin texture for a natural, lasting effect.

Are facelift scars visible?

Facial lifting scars are generally minimal and discreet, thanks to advanced techniques used by expert surgeons. Incisions are strategically placed in concealed areas, such as the hairline, behind the ears, or along natural facial folds, to minimize visibility.

How long is recovery after a Regenerative Facelift, and why does Lipogems optimize healing?

Post-facelift recovery occurs gradually, with swelling and bruising beginning to decrease within the first week and continuing to improve over the following 2-3 weeks. During this period, Lipogems treatment plays a fundamental role: thanks to mesenchymal cells from autologous fat, it accelerates healing processes, reduces inflammation, and stimulates tissue regeneration. This not only contributes to faster recovery but also improves skin quality, making results more natural, harmonious, and long-lasting. The mesenchymal cells from processed autologous fat have anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties, promoting rapid healing, improving tissues, and reducing infection risk through their modulating effect on the immune system.

Why It Works

The Lipogems Effect

Preserved Tissue Structure

Lipogems processing maintains the integrity of adipose tissue, including its vascular network and extracellular matrix, supporting better integration.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells

The processed fat contains a high concentration of mesenchymal stem cells, which can differentiate into various cell types and promote tissue repair.

Growth Factors and Cytokines

Adipose tissue is rich in growth factors and cytokines that stimulate healing and regeneration in the surrounding tissues when injected.
