The Capurro Philosophy Dr. Capurro believes that the face and neck cannot truly be rejuvenated by means of the ample dissection that is typical of traditional aesthetic surgery, as this causes damage to the vascularization and innervation of the tissues. The Jano needle and the elastic thread make the dissection and traction of SMAS obsolete. Elastic lifting procedures, which are performed through incisions of a few millimeters or centimeters, are economical, require no skin dissection and yield long-lasting results.
The Capurro Philosophy Designed by Dr. Capurro, the elastic thread mounted on a two-tipped needle can lift and compact the buttocks without skin dissection, through an 8 mm incision. The breasts can be lifted through two incisions of a few mm (elastic mastopexy). Breasts that have silicone implants can be made to look more natural by means of an 8 mm peri-areolar incision. The elastic thread conizes the breasts and repositions the implant in contact with the chest wall, eliminating the appearance of a "ball in a sock". Through another small incision, breasts with silicone implants can be lifted.
The Capurro Philosophy Current techniques of nano- and micro-fat grafting cause friction, which destroys a large portion of the adipocytes. Dr Capurro believes that significant volume enhancement and a powerful regenerative action can only be achieved by coupling living adipose cells with living stromal cells, in a procedure that avoids the complications of lipofilling. Dr Capurro's research has led to the development of an economical disposable device which can, in a few seconds, transform small or large amounts of lobular fat aspirated through a 3 or 4 mm cannula into a suspension of adipose and stromal cells that can be injected with a simple syringe. Transforming the lipoaspirate into a cell suspension facilitates the survival of the adipocytes in the receiving tissues. Moreover, the suspension can be injected into delicate or very superficial areas, even into the dermis. Adipofilling exploits the volumetric and regenerative properties of the adipose tissue to the full, in addition to being an extraordinary complement to elastic lifting of the face, neck, breasts and buttocks.
The Capurro Philosophy Dr. Capurro uses high-frequency currents because they travel over the surface of the tissues – unlike light, which travels in straight lines. This means that high-power currents can be delivered for fractions of one-hundredth of a second without damaging the underlying tissues. Moreover, the current exploits the electrical conductivity of the tissues, which is practically invariable from one individual to another. Timedsurgery utilizes a set of color-coded, standardized active electrodes; these, together with the specific currents, provide control over all the parameters that condition the effect of a diathermal current.
The Capurro Philosophy It was not difficult to revolutionize the irrational techniques of phlebology. Developing TRAP was more difficult. Dr Capurro points out that the circulation is a single system; that the saphenous vein is innocent, and that varicose veins are due to the hemodynamic hypertension determined by the incontinence of the perforating veins, almost all of which are invisible on ECD. Ectatic veins are the effect of the pathology, not the cause; they are the "escape valves" for venous hypertension. Traditional techniques cannot treat this hypertension.
