BONITA ASYMMETRY

Multi Lifting after Filler Removal

Once fillers and foreign material are safely cleared, we carry on, in one continuous flow, to regenerating and lifting skin that has sagged as if deflated

Multi Lifting after Filler Removal

Bonita's Approach

Where restoration ends, facial balance begins

Once old filler or illegal foreign material is removed, the space it occupied is left empty, and the skin tends to sink unevenly or lose firmness and sag

Bonita does not stop at removal: from the start, we factor in the volume imbalance and sagging the cleared space will leave, and restore accordingly

For You

Recommended for these concerns

  • Those hesitating for fear that the skin will sag like a deflated balloon after filler or foreign material is removed
  • Those who have already had foreign material removed at another clinic but are left with an uneven face and asymmetry
  • Those who find an extensive-incision facelift too much and are looking for restorative lifting with less tissue damage and an easier recovery
  • Those who want to address a jawline that has collapsed because of foreign material, deepened nasolabial folds and neck lines all at once
  • Those who want hollow areas filled naturally and loose areas lifted, to regain their original, composed look

BONITA ASYMMETRY

So that nothing looks out of place where material was removed

About

When foreign-material removal is closely linked with skin regeneration and lifting, depressions at the removal site can be reduced while the whole face keeps its three-dimensional contour.

Whether removal and lifting are done on the same day, or in stages once inflammation and tissue have fully settled, is decided according to your skin's condition after ultrasound diagnosis.

Point

Lifting after filler and foreign body removal

01

Stage 1 · Ultrasound-guided clearing of filler, foreign material and adhesions

We locate the material by ultrasound, remove the filler or foreign body, and then address any remaining adhesions and scarring.

02

Stage 2 · Regeneration-based multi lifting (stem cells, fat grafting, threads, laser)

(skin regeneration + combined laser + stem cells + skin booster)

Process

Multi lifting after foreign-body removal: the 7-step treatment process

  1. STEP 01

    Precise ultrasound diagnosis and separation of foreign material and adhesions

    Ultrasound confirms the exact layer and extent of foreign material in the skin so it can be removed safely; the adhesions and fibrotic scar tissue pulling the skin inward are then gently released.

  2. STEP 02

    Planning the order of volume restoration and lifting

    Where foreign material has been removed, the empty space makes the skin look loose.

    Rather than simply pulling hard, we carefully plan the order: first restoring lost volume naturally, then lifting only as much as the remaining sagging requires.

  3. STEP 03

    Micro-liposuction for a heavy, sagging jawline and lower cheeks

    Where the area below the jawline or the deep cheek has sagged heavily from migrating foreign material or ageing, excess fat and residue are cleared with a fine cannula without an incision, bringing out a sharper contour.

  4. STEP 04

    Restoring hollow volume with your own fat and stem cells

    If one cheek, the forehead or the chin is left hollow after removal, we measure the left–right volume difference precisely, then combine purified autologous fat with fat stem cells to fill the hollow smoothly and help damaged tissue regenerate.

  5. STEP 05

    Supporting sagging soft tissue with dissolvable threads

    Dissolvable threads are placed densely like a mesh in nasolabial folds, cheeks and under-eye areas that have lost firmness, physically supporting sagging tissue and stimulating collagen production in the dermis.

  6. STEP 06

    Combined laser to calm damaged texture and redness

    2–3 laser wavelengths are combined to suit skin surfaces thinned or reddened by foreign-material complications, restoring healthy texture and tone.

  7. STEP 07

    Checking dynamic symmetry at rest and when smiling

    Facial asymmetry is often more noticeable when talking or smiling than at rest.

    When reviewing recovery, we compare the face at rest and in expression side by side to fine-tune the balance.

  • AnesthesiaSedation + local

  • StitchesIf fat grafting is done

Recovery, stage by stage

  1. Right after treatment

    Swelling and bruising are managed, and we explain how to apply compression.

  2. During recovery

    As swelling goes down, the contours on both sides appear.

  3. As it settles

    Once the grafted fat and lifting have settled, we check the balance and make fine adjustments if needed.

Recovery time and follow-up visits vary with the extent of treatment and your individual condition.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Can it be combined with restorative treatment?
Yes, it is possible. Depending on the condition we may do it in one go, or in stages once the restored area has settled. The order is set at consultation.
Doesn't grafted fat just disappear again?
Part of the grafted fat is absorbed and the engrafted portion remains. We set the volume with the survival rate in mind and top up if needed.
How long does thread lifting last?
It depends on your skin and the treatments combined with it. It often lasts better when combined with fat grafting or lasers than threads alone.
How long is the recovery?
It depends on the combination and extent of treatment. If you have important plans, tell us during consultation and we will set the order around them.
