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.

As the year comes to a close, we pause with grateful hearts.

It’s been a busy and meaningful year for us—filled with patient journeys, regenerative plastic surgery, scientific conferences, and traveling to share our work while learning from some of the best minds in regenerative surgery around the world. Every experience, every lesson, and every conversation was brought back home with one purpose: to serve you better.

This holiday season, we’re taking a short break to reflect, recharge, and give our team the well-deserved rest they need, so we can return refreshed and inspired for the busy year ahead.

Our clinic will resume operations on January 5, 2026.

Thank you for trusting us, supporting us, and being part of our journey.

Wishing you and your families a warm Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
With gratitude,
ArtistiqueMD Team

Not ready for a facelift or surgical procedure?
This is a non-surgical, anatomy-guided approach for patients who want natural results, faster recovery, and a refreshed look—without looking “done.”

Can you spot the difference?
Same camera. Same lighting. Same room.

This is the before—
no tricks, no filters, no lighting changes.
Just time and anatomy.

After 1 year & 3 months—
no maintenance treatments,
no repeat procedures,
no monthly visits.
Patient is 63 years old,
with no previous aesthetic or surgical procedures prior to treatment.

What changed wasn’t the camera.

• Restored facial volume
• Softer, more natural transitions
• Improved skin quality
• Better overall facial harmony

All achieved with one well-done fat grafting.

Technique over technology.
No over-processing.
No optimization protocols.
No complicated preparation.

Just anatomically directed fat grafting,
guided by facial muscle anatomy.

Fat grafting results matter.
When done correctly, it should be done once—
with results that continue to improve over time.

Hong Kong 🇭🇰 | Learning beyond what the eye can see
Learning never stops—always staying ahead of the curve.

I recently attended an advanced workshop on high-frequency ultrasound for facial assessment—a powerful tool that is quietly reshaping how we approach regenerative aesthetics.

Ultrasound allows us to:
• Identify and locate previously injected fillers often missed on physical exam
• Differentiate HA, CaHA, PCL, silicone, and fat based on their unique ultrasound signatures
• Guide precise hyaluronidase placement—targeted, safer, and more conservative
• Assess skin thickness, photoaging, and SLEB objectively
• Understand depth anatomy in relation to SMAS, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue

Ultrasound doesn’t replace experience—it amplifies it.

The future of facial fat grafting is not louder technology, but better understanding.

Proud to represent the Philippines at the Regenerative Plastic Surgery International Conference in Rome.
An honor to contribute — and an even greater privilege to learn from brilliant colleagues around the world.
Always evolving. Always refining. Always regenerating. Philippines 🇵🇭 ✨🇮🇹

“This international conference aims to compare the results obtained from regenerative plastic surgery with those obtained by reconstructive and aesthetic plastic surgery in several fields such as anti-aging, breast augmentation and reconstruction, face rejuvenation, hair re-growth, nose contouring, wound healing, and many others.
The scientific committee is composed of international and famous speakers in these fields.
Personally, I dedicated my life to improving the scientific and clinical outcomes of regenerative plastic surgery and, for this reason, I would like to see in this meeting which is the current state of the art of both plastic reconstructive aesthetic surgery and regenerative plastic surgery.”

- Prof. Pietro Gentile
Conference President

Unlock another level of rejuvenation.
After full-face FAMI™ fat grafting, we added Dermapen 4 with Nanofat to refine her skin even further — improving texture, luminosity, and overall skin quality.

Volume restores youth.
Nanofat refines the canvas.

She is now 69 years old — with no facelift needed.
A powerful combination for soft, natural, long-lasting results.

The Art of Fat Grafting

Born with Parry-Romberg Syndrome, our patient’s journey has been one of courage and quiet transformation.

Through the reconstructive arm of our practice, we offered her treatment using her own fat — restoring not only facial symmetry, but also confidence and a sense of normalcy.

After her first FAMI™ session — with almost 80% improvement, according to her — she shared that strangers no longer stared, and children no longer asked what happened to her face.
💬 “I finally feel normal again,” she said.

Now, after her second session, she feels almost 100% treated — and her healing continues naturally over time.

Thank you, Karen, for allowing us to share your journey — so others may know that something can be done about facial asymmetry.
All performed under local anesthesia, with minimal downtime and no bruising.

This is why we do what we do — using regenerative surgery not only for beauty, but to help restore lives. 🌿

She lost 20kg. Then another 6kg.
Her face thinned… but her identity remained.
This is how she chose to restore it —
with her own fat, not fillers. 🤍

Here is her full testimonial:

“My face is always the first place to lose volume whenever I lose weight. In 2023, I was looking for a solution to my under-eye bags and hollow areas because I looked tired and worn out after losing almost 20 kg from being in a caloric deficit. I discovered Dr. Callanta’s work through a post online, and what stood out to me was that the procedure uses your own fat — not fillers.

From my first consultation, Dr. Callanta and his team were warm, professional, and patient with all my questions. On the day of the procedure, I was nervous, but I felt safe and well taken care of. When I saw my face right after surgery, I became emotional — the result looked natural and youthful, like myself again. No overfilled look, no bruising, just a soft and balanced restoration.

Now, almost 2 years and 6 months later, after losing another 6 kg, I reached out again to plan a touch-up. Once your own fat integrates, it behaves naturally — if you lose weight, it softens; if you gain weight, it increases. That’s why it always looks real. I’ve never considered fillers again. Only fat for me now.

I told Dr. Callanta that I didn’t want fillers or any foreign substance to “fill” my face. Since meeting him, I’ve made a personal decision that only fat will ever enter my skin. I’ve heard too many stories about fillers under the eyes — swelling, migration, dissolving and re-injecting, the ongoing costs, and the cycle of repeating it every few months. It all felt temporary and unnatural to me.

Fat, on the other hand, is mine.
It grows with me, softens with me, and ages with me.

I am grateful to have found Dr. Callanta. I recommend him to friends who want to age slowly and gracefully, because I always remember what he said:
“The fountain of youth for the face is fat.”
And I agree.

Thank you, Dr. Callanta — your skill, your eye, and your care have made a genuine difference in my life.”

A story of aging slowly, softly, and naturally.

When Results Don’t Fade — They Evolve

Better improvement as compared to all his previous treatments, which usually fade by the 3rd week.
This is how he looks now, almost 4 weeks after treatment.
Photos care of patient.
Subtle, steady, and natural improvement — the kind that continues over time.

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.”
