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.

8 Days Post-Op: The Art of Gentle Transformation

Our 30-year-old patient, a mother of two, underwent circumferential liposuction with autologous fat grafting to the breasts — and just 8 days later, this is how beautifully the body begins to take shape.

🔄 Notice how her silhouette is more sculpted, with a naturally fuller, softer breast volume — all achieved without implants.
💛 Mild, fading bruising is expected and part of normal healing.
💫 Because we use a gentle technique for both liposuction and fat transfer, recovery is surprisingly smooth — she was already out doing errands the next day and even flew back to Cebu just two days after surgery.

This is the quiet art of body contouring: subtle, elegant, and designed to look and feel like you — only more balanced and confident.

✨ At ArtistiqueMD, our goal is to educate and empower you to make informed choices about your body and well-being. These photos are shared with our patient’s full consent and are meant for educational purposes only. Every journey is unique — results and recovery can vary from person to person. Always consult a qualified surgeon for personalized recommendations. ✨

From hesitation to healing.
Our 42-year-old patient first noticed gradual atrophy on the right side of her face 15 years ago. After multiple treatments and consultations — and still no clear diagnosis — she suspected Parry-Romberg Syndrome.

She followed our page silently for years, watching how we treat cases of Progressive Hemifacial Atrophy. Nearly two years ago, she finally found the courage to undergo Fat Grafting.

These are her results 1 year and 9 months later — natural volume restored, facial symmetry improved, and quality of life transformed.

What we achieved — 1 year & 9 months after fat grafting:
• ✅ Volume restored: The hollowed mid-face and cheek areas are now naturally full and balanced, bringing back facial symmetry and youthful contours.
• ✨ Skin regenerated: Texture is smoother, tone more even, and the skin looks thicker and healthier — a visible sign of tissue rejuvenation beyond just adding volume.
• 💫 Jawline redefined: The lower face now has a clearer, more structured contour, with better definition and harmony from cheek to chin.

This is the quiet power of regenerative fat grafting — not just filling, but healing and rebuilding the face over time.

1 Year & 4 Months Later
With just one FAMI Fat Grafting treatment, we did more than restore volume and correct contour irregularities — we also improved the skin condition of the forehead over time.

Smooth. Natural. Long-lasting.
This is the quiet power of regenerative aesthetics: results that don’t just fill, but heal.

Thank you to our patient for trusting us and allowing us to share her journey. 🙏

2 years & 2 months after full face FAMI™ fat grafting

At 47, her results still hold strong. More than 2 years later, the natural volume and skin quality remain — even without an intensive skincare routine.
She only uses a mild cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen. No monthly trips to the dermatologist, no ongoing treatments — just the way she prefers it to fit her busy schedule.

Photos were taken under the same conditions: same lighting, same iPhone camera, same room, same background.

FAMI™ (Facial Autologous Muscle Injection) restores volume by transplanting living fat cells into facial muscles where they integrate with the blood supply. This creates long-lasting rejuvenation and regenerative benefits for the skin.

💡 Recently, we complemented her results with microneedling using Dermapen4® and nanofat — a gentle boost that enhances skin texture and glow.

✨ And yes, people have been asking if she’s a movie star. She fits the looks — and the skin — of one, without even trying hard.

🙏 Thank you, Joanne, for sharing your photos and journey with us.

Natural. Enduring. Regenerative.

When Weight Loss Ages the Face… 💭
Our 63-year-old patient lost 10kg in 6 months with Ozempic — but along with the weight came an unexpected consequence: facial volume loss and a prematurely aged appearance.

She consulted several doctors. The options? Facelift, Sculptra, fillers, threads.
But she wanted something natural, something lasting — not just a lift, but regeneration.

So she turned to ChatGPT.
She searched for “fat grafting” and “FAMI technique” — and to her surprise, our name came up.
Even more surprising? She was already our patient… from years ago.

We performed Full Face FAMI™ fat grafting and followed it with microneedling using Dermapen 4 + Nanofat to restore volume, improve skin quality, and bring back youthful harmony.

📸 This is her result 1 week after — with only expected swelling, no visible bruising.
The changes are already evident:
• Softer under-eyes
• Restored midface volume
• Improved skin glow and texture
• A refreshed, not altered look

Real people. Real results. Real time.

Presenting on MACS Lift and FAMI™ facial fat grafting — a time when combination treatments were still my standard for correcting facial aging.

Looking back, this was an important step in the journey toward discovering that true regeneration can stand on its own.

✨ AI as the Independent Eye ✨

In aesthetic medicine, results can sometimes feel subjective — what one person sees as a big change, another may call subtle. That’s where AI can help.

With advanced image analysis, AI provides an independent, unbiased eye to evaluate before-and-after photos. It can:
🔍 Map out the differences in volume, contour, and skin quality
💡 Detect if photos were digitally enhanced or manipulated
💡 Identify changes caused by lighting, shadows, or angles

This ensures transparency and clarity — both for doctors and patients — especially in times of dispute.

And after reviewing these photos?
✅ No evidence of digital enhancement or manipulation — fine details like pores and skin texture remain consistent.
✅ Lighting is uniform, with the same neutral background and direction.
✅ Angles and framing are aligned, allowing a fair comparison.
✅ Improvements are anatomical, not photographic — smoother lid–cheek transitions, fuller temples, and softer hollows, all consistent with long-term FAMI™ fat grafting results.

👉 In short: these before-and-after photos pass as authentic, unretouched, and representative of the patient’s actual 10-month post-FAMI™ outcome.

Because true artistry in regenerative surgery should stand on its own — without filters, edits, or tricks of the light. 🌱

📸 Photos are original, unretouched, taken under the same conditions, and posted with full patient consent.

Quality and Safety is our Culture

If there is one lamp which guided Dr. Alfredo V. Callanta to achieve his aesthetic mission and vision, it is the lamp of his medical learning and experiences. Through the years, he has built a formidable reputation in fat grafting by using a combination of medical expertise, consummate skill, artistic vision, the latest state of the art techniques, and outstanding customer service. He has attended seminars in various parts of the globe – Germany, Brazil, USA, France, Italy, Thailand, Korea, Mexico, Australia, and a lot more; as a resource speaker, to share and to enlighten minds with his innovated FAMI™ Fat Grafting technique since 2005.

FAMI™ Fat Grafting is a technique, wherein, an individual’s own adult stem cells are being grafted by injection into the facial muscles of facial expression. For breast rejuvenation and fat grafting, Dr. Callanta was trained under Dr. Roger Khouri in Miami, Florida in 2009, who contributed to the innovations in liposuction and lipografting; and was the innovator of the BRAVA® Enhancement and Shaping System, this uses an external breast tissue expander followed by a large volume fat graft. As per Dr. Callanta, there is no other way to perfect these techniques than by first, learning them from the masters, and then honing them by doing it repeatedly.

Furthermore, Dr. Callanta is committed to achieving beautiful, natural-looking results with utmost safety for Asian patients, taking into consideration that Asians have a unique body shape, physique cultural characteristics, and unique demands on how they want to be enhanced as compared to Caucasians. Bringing in to patients a cutting-age technology which he acquired during his training outside the Philippines in the field of fat surgery and aesthetic medicine. He has built his practice on word-of-mouth referrals from his satisfied patients coming in from the USA, Spain, England, Australia, Japan, Thailand, and the Philippines.

Although Dr. Callanta has been trademarked to offer fat grafting in the Philippines, still he is continuously searching for breakthrough treatments, more effective products, and advanced technologies so that he may share it to his patients and educate them as well. Dr. Callanta and his professional staff see to it that every individual they meet shall get correct information that they are entitled to as he lives by the quote by Aristotle – “We are what we repeatedly do, excellence then is not an act but a habit.”
