Dr. Alfredo V. Callanta is a renowned Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeon in the field of fat harvest and fat grafting in the Philippines. He has built a formidable reputation in fat grafting by using a combination of medical expertise, consummate skill, artistic vision, latest state of the art technique and outstanding customer service. He learned his fat grafting to the face technique

from Dr. Roger Amar who is the creator of the FAMI technique (your own adult stem cells grafted by injection into the muscle). For the fat grafting to the breast, he trained under Dr. Roger Khouri who contributed to the innovations in liposuction and lipografting, and was the inventor of the Brava external breast tissue expander followed by large volume fat graft. As per Dr. Callanta, there is no other way to perfect the techniques than by first, learning them from the masters, and then, honing them by doing it again and again.

Fourteen years ago, I attended my first ISPRES Congress in Rome—driven by curiosity and a deep fascination with regenerative surgery.

That experience reshaped how I understood not just the face… but the true potential of fat as a regenerative tool.

Today, 14 years later, I return to the ISPRES stage in Shanghai—this time as a speaker and moderator.

Not only to talk about facial fat grafting,
but also its broader applications:

• breast augmentation and refinement
• buttock contouring
• correction of deformities and contour irregularities
• and the regenerative effects of fat across tissues

Because this is what ISPRES represents—
the science and art of using fat beyond volume… toward regeneration.

From fascination… to contribution.

Grateful to stand alongside colleagues from around the world at the 2026 ISPRES Annual Congress.

Technique over technology.
Biology over trends.
Regeneration over time.

See you in Shanghai.

The best result is not how much fat is removed.
It’s how natural the body looks afterwards.

6 months after Liposuction 360.

The goal is not aggressive fat removal, but refined contouring:

✔ smoother curves
✔ balanced proportions
✔ natural-looking waistline
✔ no visible surface irregularities

Most important of all — a happy patient.

3 Years Later.

When this patient first came to us, she was concerned about looking too hollow and overly V-shaped after buccal fat pad removal.

Our goal was simple:
not to change her face —
but to restore balance and natural volume.

Using FAMI™ facial fat grafting, we carefully replenished volume where it was lost.

✨ No implants
✨ No fillers
✨ No repeated treatments

Just one carefully performed fat grafting procedure.

Today, 3 years and 3 months later, the result remains:

• Softer facial contours
• Balanced proportions
• Healthier skin quality
• A natural, timeless appearance

This is the philosophy behind regenerative aesthetic surgery.

Not chasing trends.
Not overfilling.

Just restoring what time — or previous procedures — may have taken away.

Subtle is the new standard.

Persistent nodules after biostimulators are one of the more challenging complications in aesthetic medicine.

These lumps may appear weeks or even months after treatment as collagen forms around the injected particles. Once established, they may require steroid injections, 5-FU, needling, or even surgical removal.

This is one of the reasons why in our practice we prefer autologous tissue for facial rejuvenation.

By using your own fat, we are restoring volume with living tissue that the body recognizes and integrates naturally.

When performed with proper anatomical technique, fat grafting does not simply fill —
it restores structure and supports regeneration over time.

No foreign material.
No artificial contours.
Just your own biology.

Regenerative aesthetics.

55 years old. A 30-year journey trying to fix acne scars.

Like many patients, he tried everything.

• 30 years ago — chemical peels
• 20 years ago — multiple dermabrasion sessions
• 5 years ago — repeated laser treatments, often combined, every 3 months

There was always some improvement at first…
But once the swelling subsided, the scars seemed to return.

2 years ago, he went all in:
subcision, PRP, CO₂ laser, TCA peels — a full “synergistic” approach.

Yet the results remained minimal and temporary.

⸻

Today, we did something different.

Instead of chasing surface treatments,
we addressed the real problem:

👉 Volume loss beneath the scars
👉 Structural deficiency of the skin

With FAMI™️ facial fat grafting, we’re not just filling—
we’re restoring.

✔️ Replacing lost volume
✔️ Releasing tethered scars
✔️ Harnessing the regenerative potential of fat

⸻

This is the shift.

From repeated treatments…
to a single, anatomy-based solution

From temporary swelling…
to true structural improvement

From chasing results…
to building them

⸻

Let’s see how he evolves over the next few months.

Because with fat grafting,
the real result is not immediate—
it improves over time.

THE NEW FACE OF AESTHETICS

Update on our patient from California.

With just one procedure—
no facelift, no scars, minimal downtime.

No complicated skincare.
No weekly or monthly maintenance.
No Botox. No lasers. No peels.

Just the way he wanted it.

And the beauty of it?
He still looks like himself…
just the version from 10 years ago.

Thank you, Manuel, for allowing us to share your journey of rejuvenation.

⸻

Aging doesn’t have to mean looking older.
It can mean looking… restored.

At 62, one month after FAMI facial fat grafting,
the goal was never to change his face—
but to bring back what time had gradually taken away.

✔️ Softer under-eye shadows
✔️ Restored midface volume
✔️ Improved skin quality
✔️ Natural, undetectable result

No exaggeration.
No artificial contours.
No obvious signs of surgery.

Just a face that looks familiar—
but better.

⸻

This is the shift in modern aesthetics:
From correction → to regeneration
From noticeable → to natural
From trends → to timeless results

Subtle is the new standard.

“Doc, do you still do eyelid surgery?”

Our 38-year-old patient asked this during her consultation.

She originally had monolid eyes, and underwent upper blepharoplasty with another surgeon 4 years ago — but she wasn’t completely happy with the result.

Most of our posts show facial fat grafting, so she wasn’t sure if we still performed eyelid surgery.

Of course we do.

We performed a revision upper blepharoplasty to refine the crease and make the eyes look more open and expressive.

At 1 week, the eyes already look brighter and more alive.

When she saw the result, she laughed and said:

“Doc, ito talaga yung gusto ko — medyo malandi eyes.” 😄

What my mentor used to call “the come-and-get-me look.”

Before leaving the clinic she told us:

“Doc, you should post more eyes so patients can see your beautiful work.”

So here it is — shared with her permission.

Two photos.
10 years apart.

One was taken in 2016.
The other in 2026.

When I showed her the photos…
even she got confused. 😄

So now the question is:

Which is which?

Because the best facial rejuvenation is not about looking different.
It’s about looking like yourself again — just the version from 10 years ago.

That is the philosophy behind regenerative facial surgery.

She didn’t want a new face.
She wanted her face back.

Thank you, Joanne. Always a pleasure seeing you. I truly appreciate your trust. Our goal has always been to help patients age naturally and gracefully — enhancing what is already there rather than changing it.

At 48 years old, her goal was simple:

✨ restore what time slowly took away
✨ improve skin quality naturally
✨ look refreshed without anyone noticing why

This is where FAMI facial fat grafting is different.

It’s not about creating a different face.
It’s about restoring the structure that aging gradually changes — using your own living tissue.

Over time, the regenerative properties of fat help improve:

• skin quality
• texture
• elasticity
• overall facial harmony

No artificial look.
No exaggerated features.

Just you… on a really good day.

And the best part?
This result is now 2 years and 7 months after the procedure.

That is the philosophy behind regenerative facial surgery.

Every Valentine’s Day, we choose love in its purest form — restoring confidence.

Rowena has been living with Parry-Romberg Syndrome, a condition that slowly changes the face and often the way a person sees herself.

Using the FAMI technique of regenerative fat grafting, we worked together to restore not just symmetry — but her sense of self.

For the first time, she attended her high school reunion
✨ confident
✨ proud
✨ unafraid

She shared that she could finally face the people who once made her feel different — and instead of questions, she received admiration.

Almost 10 years after, her results remain natural and stable, but more importantly, her confidence continues to grow.

Today, Rowena is more sociable, more confident, and living fully.

This is why we do what we do.
Not just to change faces — but to change lives.

🎥 Her testimonial tells the rest of the story.
