As with the face, it is also possible for the rest of the body to use dermal implants such as hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxyapatite or fat transferred from places where it is in excess, to restore volume, model and provide a better appearance in areas such as the glutes, thighs, calves, arms and hands. There are a significant number of people who, not intending to use permanent implants, resort to this type of non-permanent and reversible techniques.
The particular case of fat has seen a great increase in recent times, due to the fact that it is easy to obtain it through liposuction and that conservation methods and ways of increasing the longevity of fat after harvesting and reinjection into the body. The use of growth factors has been decisive in this aspect and is still an active research field that will certainly provide further advances in the near future.
