alloClae™ is a sophisticated adipose-based filler designed to restore volume, contour, and support in areas such as hip dips and the buttocks, with no need for anesthesia and minimal downtime.

Restoring Volume, Thoughtfully and Precisely

At the Plastic Surgery Institute of Washington, new technologies are adopted only after rigorous evaluation for safety, scientific validity, and long-term patient benefit. Our board-certified plastic surgeons—recognized year after year by Washingtonian, Castle Connolly, and U.S. News & World Report—offer alloClae™ within a carefully considered, anatomy-driven approach to body contouring.

With decades of experience treating complex contour concerns and post–weight loss volume loss, our surgeons apply alloClae™ with the same precision, judgment, and ethical standards that define every procedure performed at PSIW.

What is alloClae™?

alloClae™ is an injectable structural adipose tissue filler designed specifically for body contouring. Unlike synthetic fillers or traditional fat grafting, alloClae™ is composed of donor-derived adipose tissue that has been processed and purified while maintaining its native cellular architecture.

Ideal for patients who desire non-surgical solutions for restoring volume after weight loss, contour irregularities, or with low body fat, alloClae™ is designed to be used anywhere fat exists. No liposuction needed!

alloClae™ is frequently combined with Avéli™ for Cellulite treatment, allowing patients to address both volume loss and surface irregularities in a single visit under local anesthesia; one procedure restoring shape, the other smoothing texture.

alloClae™ Benefits

Restores volume in areas where fat loss or contour irregularities are present
Ideal for enhancing hip dips and buttock contour without surgery
No liposuction or fat harvesting required
Performed under local anesthesia in an office or surgical setting
Minimal downtime with rapid return to daily activities
Allows precise, customizable volume placement
Suitable for patients with low body fat or post–weight loss volume depletion
Can be layered gradually over time for tailored results

Are You a Good Candidate for alloClae™?

You may be a candidate if you:

Have stable body weight and well-defined contour concerns localized to the hips or buttocks
Possess sufficient skin elasticity to support added volume without distortion
Are seeking correction of shape deficiencies rather than overall body enlargement
Prefer a staged, customizable approach to volume enhancement
Are not an ideal candidate for liposuction-based fat grafting due to body composition or prior procedures

Why Choose the Plastic Surgery Institute of Washington?

Choosing where to undergo body contouring is as important as selecting the procedure itself. alloClae™ at PSIW is delivered within a full-service surgical environment, not a limited injector setting. Our practice can perform alloClae™ either in-office or in the operating room when appropriate, and use ultrasound guidance when treating areas such as the buttocks. This added layer of precision reflects our surgical approach to our non-surgical care.

- Additional volume can be added over time if desired
- Pricing is based on the number of syringes used and whether the procedure is combined with other treatments
Procedure
- Local anesthesia is applied for comfort
- alloClae™ is precisely injected using advanced techniques
- Ultrasound guidance may be used when treating the buttocks to ensure accurate, safe placement
- Treatment is performed in the office or in the operating room, depending on your plan
Recovery and Results
- Most patients return to normal activities the same or the next day
- Mild swelling or tenderness may occur temporarily
- Volume is visible immediately and continues to integrate over time
- Results are designed to look soft, balanced, and natural
Your Recovery and Expected Results

Recovery varies depending on the extent of your procedure. Most patients resume light activities within several days while avoiding strenuous movement for a few weeks. As swelling diminishes, your breasts settle into their new contour, revealing a refined, natural shape that supports long-term comfort and confidence.

Let’s Discuss What’s Possible

FAQs

Is alloClae™ permanent?

alloClae™ is intended to provide long-lasting volume, but individual results can vary. Over time, the body may remodel or integrate the material differently based on metabolism, activity level, and tissue characteristics. Some patients choose additional layering treatments to maintain or refine results.

How soon will I see changes after treatment?

Volume is visible immediately after injection. Mild swelling may temporarily exaggerate results, which then settle as the area heals. Your surgeon will help you understand what to expect in the days and weeks following treatment.

Can alloClae™ help correct asymmetry?

Yes. One of the advantages of alloClae™ is the ability to place volume selectively, allowing surgeons to address side-to-side differences in hip or buttock contour. Asymmetry is assessed carefully during consultation and planning.

Will alloClae™ affect how the area feels when sitting or moving?

Once healing has occurred, alloClae™ is designed to feel soft and natural. Most patients report that the treated areas move and respond comfortably during daily activities, including sitting and exercise.

How does alloClae™ fit into a long-term body contouring plan?

alloClae™ can be used as a standalone treatment or as part of a staged approach to contour refinement. Some patients use it to fine-tune results after weight loss or other procedures, while others incorporate it alongside treatments like Avéli™ to address multiple contour concerns over time.

Are there risks or side effects associated with alloClae™?

As with any injectable procedure, potential risks include swelling, bruising, tenderness, infection, asymmetry, or irregular contour. While alloClae™ is processed to minimize inflammatory response, no procedure is without risk. Your surgeon will review all potential side effects and safety considerations in detail during consultation.
