This report from PlasticSurgery.org about a possible revolution with fat to help get rid of crow's feet:

ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. – This week, physicians and researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center revealed they may have discovered a natural way to fill-in pesky crow’s feet and get rid of unwanted fat in the thigh and abdominal areas. According to a study published online in the July 1 issue of Nature Medicine, physicians have been able to selectively add fat in targeted areas of the body in laboratory animals by injecting a natural chemical (neuropeptide Y) found in the body. Likewise, they have found blocking this chemical (neuropeptide Y2R blocker) can prevent the development of fat.

Patients could say goodbye to saddle bags and have results similar to liposuction, the third most popular surgical cosmetic procedures, by using the natural chemical to block the pathways that make cells create fat. In fact, this discovery could deliver the unproven promises of mesotherapy and LipoDissolve, which are touted to non-surgically remove localized fat.
