Instead of taking out fat, it injects fat into people (hence why it is also known as reverse liposuction). Heralded by Dr Herod Richards of the London-based Klaxon Institute, he hopes to use stretch-and-blow liposuction to solve our world hunger issue. According to Psfk, the institute takes fat removed from [liposuction patients](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptra) and brings it to third world countries where it is then injected into poor people. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.7/10 - Popularity: 30% | Activity: 42% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Stretch-and-blow Liposuction:** The rise of stretch-and-blow liposuction in the beauty and health industry creates opportunities for non-invasive body contouring solutions. - **Fat Redistribution:** Fat redistribution through reverse liposuction presents innovative solutions to alleviate global malnutrition and hunger. - **Sustainable Medical Practices:** The utilization of waste materials, like removed fat, from medical procedures for humanitarian causes, highlights the need for sustainable medical practices. ### Who This Affects Most - **Beauty and Health:** Stretch-and-blow liposuction can benefit the beauty and health industry by providing non-invasive treatments and potential for personalized body contouring. - **Humanitarian Aid:** The practice of reverse liposuction showcases opportunities in the humanitarian aid industry; exploring alternative solutions for poverty, hunger, and malnutrition. - **Waste Management:** Reverse liposuction contributes to the rise of waste management as a critical concern in the medical industry and encourages innovation in sustainable medical practices. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Adaptive Lip Plumpers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lip-injection-lip-blush.md) - [LED Fat Reducing Procedures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/what-is-lipomelt-laser.md) - [Non-Invasive Lip-Volumizing Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lip-volumizer.md) - [High-End Plumping Lip Treatments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plumping-lip-treatments1.md) - [Non-Invasive Lip Volumizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/derm-correxion-lip-volumizer.md) - [Filler Fatigue Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3-minute-clinic.md) - [Two-Step Lip Treatments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lip-basting.md) - [Body-Sculpting Serums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dropoff.md) - [Sensorial Plumping Glosses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lip-plumping-gloss.md)
