▸AlloClae™ Structural Adipose Filler

AlloClae™ Structural Adipose Filler

For many women, enhancing or restoring breast shape does not always mean undergoing surgery with implants. Whether you are hoping for a subtle increase in volume, improved contour, or a refined adjustment after a previous breast procedure, AlloClae™ may offer the balance and softness you’re seeking.

At Richmond Aesthetic Surgery, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Neil J. Zemmel is proud to provide AlloClae™ , an advanced injectable filler designed specifically for use in breast tissue and other body areas. This treatment is carefully performed to complement the natural structure of the breast, offering a minimally invasive way to achieve more harmonious results.

What Is AlloClae™?

AlloClae™ is a structural adipose filler that has been specially formulated for soft tissue support. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that are most often used in the face, AlloClae™ was developed with the unique needs of the breasts and body in mind. The filler is biocompatible, meaning it is designed to work safely with your body while helping create gentle shape and structure.

The treatment can be performed on its own for patients who want a modest enhancement, or it may be used in combination with surgical breast procedures such as breast augmentation, breast lift, or breast reconstruction for added refinement.

How Does AlloClae™ Work?

During treatment, Dr. Zemmel carefully injects AlloClae™ into targeted areas of the breast to enhance volume, symmetry, or contour. Because the filler is designed for structural use, it integrates well with existing tissue, providing support and subtle lift without the need for an implant.

The procedure is performed in-office using local anesthesia for comfort. Treatment times are typically shorter than traditional surgery, and most patients are able to return to normal activities within a few days.

Who Is a Candidate for AlloClae™?

The best way to determine candidacy is through a personal consultation with Dr. Zemmel. In general, AlloClae™ may be a good option if you:

  • Desire a small, natural-looking increase in breast volume
  • Have slight asymmetry you’d like to correct
  • Want to refine the results of a previous breast surgery
  • Prefer a minimally invasive alternative to implants
  • Are in good overall health and have realistic expectations

For women seeking a more dramatic change in breast size or lift, traditional procedures like breast implants or a breast lift may be recommended. Dr. Zemmel will help you understand all your options so you can make an informed decision.

What Are the Benefits of AlloClae™?

Patients often choose AlloClae™ because it provides results that feel soft and natural while avoiding the need for major surgery. Benefits may include:

  • Subtle enhancement that complements your natural shape
  • Shorter recovery period compared to implant surgery
  • Opportunity to fine-tune the outcome of previous breast procedures
  • No scars, since the treatment involves only small injections
  • A conservative option for those hesitant about implants

AlloClae™ is especially appealing for women who value modesty in their results — wanting improvement that is noticeable to themselves but not necessarily obvious to others.

What Does the AlloClae™ Procedure Involve?

AlloClae™ treatments are designed to be straightforward and comfortable. The procedure is performed in a private treatment setting at Richmond Aesthetic Surgery and typically takes less than an hour. To begin, Dr. Zemmel will carefully mark the areas of the breast where improvement is desired. A local anesthetic is then applied to minimize any discomfort during the injections.

Using a fine cannula, the AlloClae™ filler is placed with precision to support and shape the breast tissue. Dr. Zemmel’s technique allows him to gradually build contour while maintaining a soft, natural feel. Because the injections are strategically layered, the treatment can be customized to correct asymmetry, improve fullness in specific regions of the breast, or create a smoother transition around the edges of an implant.

Patients are able to go home shortly after the procedure, with no need for general anesthesia or an extended recovery period. Many women find that they can resume light activities the same day, making AlloClae™ a practical choice for those seeking enhancement with minimal disruption to their routine.

What Is the Recovery Like After AlloClae™?

Recovery following AlloClae™ injections is generally much easier than with traditional breast surgery. Mild swelling, tenderness, or bruising may occur around the injection sites, but these effects typically resolve within a week. Most patients return to daily activities within a few days, although strenuous exercise should be avoided until cleared by Dr. Zemmel.

Because every body heals differently, Dr. Zemmel provides detailed aftercare instructions and remains available to support you throughout recovery.

How Long Do Results Last?

While AlloClae™ provides lasting improvement, results are not permanent. Over time, your body will gradually absorb the filler. Many women enjoy their results for a year or longer before considering maintenance treatments. During your consultation, Dr. Zemmel will explain what you can expect and help you plan for touch-ups if desired.
