AlloClae™ FDA approved Structural Adipose Filler

Conveniently located to serve Seattle and Bellevue

AlloClae is a FDA approved structural adipose (fat) filler. This product is used to add volume to certain areas of the body. It is made of donor derived adipose cells and extracellular matrix ECM to provide a sterile non-immunogenic product that is safe for transfer into the body. The DNA has been removed from the cells. The product is considered non-surgical treatment.

Ideal candidates for AlloClae generally are healthy and do not have sufficient donor fat for transfer. Candidates that do not want an invasive procedure ie. liposuction and wish to add volume to smaller areas for enhancement. In addition, the procedure can be performed awake and does not require General Anesthesia.

Alloclae and Aveli Cellulite Reduction

AlloClae can be combined with Aveli subcision for cellulite reduction to fill in the dimpling from cellulite. Dr. Parikh generally puts in the AlloClae after the cellulite bands have been released with the Aveli device.

Non-Surgical Technique

AlloClae comes in a sterile package of 12.5 cc syringes with a sterile cannula. The procedure can be performed awake in a procedure room or asleep in the operating room. A small hole is entered and the AlloClae is injected after numbing the area with local anesthesia. The procedure can take 30 min to 1 hour, following this they may go home.

Alloclae vs Autologous Fat Transfer Technique and Survival

Autologous Fat transfer which is the Gold Standard for volume transfer is a time tested technique with good results. Survivability of the fat has a wide range and can be in realm of 30 to 80 percent. AlloClae survivability seems to be higher with limited follow up so far. Alloclae can be used for small volumes while autologous fat can be used for small and large volumes. Autologous fat transfer require liposuction techniques based on surgeon skill, which has additional risks while AlloClae does not require liposuction.
