In the world of aesthetic enhancements, finding a solution that gives natural volume without harvesting fat or undergoing invasive surgery has long been a "sweet spot." Enter alloClae, a structural adipose filler that offers many of the benefits of fat transfer but with fewer of the downsides. Let's dive into what this treatment is all about.
What Is alloClae?
- Structural adipose filler derived from donor-adipose tissue. That means it uses purified human fat tissue, cells, extracellular matrix (ECM), proteins, collagen, growth factors, all processed, sterilized, and made "ready to use."
- Importantly, it is not harvesting fat from your own body which reduces the surgical risk, discomfort, and recovery time.
- The processing includes sterilization to remove reactive material while retaining the structural proteins and supportive tissue elements.
How Does alloClae Work?
- Once injected, alloClae provides immediate volume and contour correction. You can see and feel the lift or fill right away.
- Over time, the ECM components and proteins help your body as a "scaffold" for tissue integration, promoting soft tissue healing, collagen formation, and smoothing of irregularities.
- Because it's donor adipose with structural components, the result tends to look and feel more "natural" compared to some synthetic fillers.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
alloClae is versatile. Some common treatment areas include:
- Hip dips
- Buttocks
- Breast contouring, asymmetry correction, implant rippling or upper pole enhancement
- Correction of contour irregularities post-liposuction or surgical procedures
- Body areas such as thighs, hands, possibly other mild volume-deficient zones and scar or soft-tissue depressions.
Benefits of alloClae
Some of the key advantages for someone considering alloClae include:
- No donor-site surgery
- Minimally invasive
- Natural texture and feel
- Immediate aesthetic improvement and longer term benefits
- Versatility
- Less downtime
What to Expect During & After Treatment
- Treatment is done in-office. Local anesthesia or light sedation may be used for comfort depending on the volume and area.
- Time required per session depends on how much volume is needed and how many areas are treated. Many practices report 30-60 minutes or more for larger volume/contour areas.
- Some swelling, bruising, mild discomfort are to be expected; these generally resolve within days.
- Results are visible immediately; additional improvements may appear over the following weeks to months as the tissue integrates and regenerates.
- Maintenance or touch-ups might be needed depending on how your body metabolizes the injected tissue and the specific area treated.
Note: Individual results may vary. It's essential to consult with our specialists to determine the most appropriate treatment plan for your needs.
