Microfat & Nanofat Grafting

Facial Rejuvenation & Regeneration.

A targeted procedure for restoring lost facial volume and sculpting the contours, Microfat & Nanofat Grafting uses your body’s own fat to create unparalleled facial revitalization with an entirely natural result.

Ideal for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss, as well as for treating dark circles, hollow temples, or flat cheekbones, this procedure offers a unique sense of renewal. At the same time, it improves skin quality thanks to the regenerative properties of fat-derived stem cells.

THE PROCEDURE

Microfat & Nanofat Grafting restores lost volume and accentuates facial features in areas such as the cheeks, the under-eye area, the cheekbones, and the temples.

Dark Circles: An excellent choice for treating dark circles. By adding Microfat, we restore lost volume, while Nanofat allows us to improve the skin quality of the lower eyelid and combat hyperpigmentation.

Cheekbones: The “sagging” of the cheekbones is one of the first signs of aging. Restoring their volume provides a youthful and natural look.

Temples: A vital area for eye rejuvenation. This procedure restores volume to the temples and enhances the appearance of the eyebrows.

Cheeks: Ideal for those who have undergone major weight or fat loss, as it allows for a complete reshaping of the face.

COMBINED PROCEDURES

Since this procedure improves skin quality through the regenerative properties of stem cells, it combines perfectly with surgeries such as Facelift, Neck Lift, and both Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty. It is also an ideal component of a Massive Weight Loss Makeover.

HOW THE PROCEDURE IS PERFORMED

Preparation
Performed under tumescent local anesthesia and mild oral sedation (twilight anesthesia). Fat is typically harvested from the lower abdomen.
Alternative Harvesting
If abdominal fat is limited or the patient is very lean, fat is collected from the lateral thigh.
Collection
Small incisions are made in the navel or a skin fold of the thigh. Specialized micro-cannulas are used to collect fat cells. Usually, a larger amount is harvested than what is ultimately required.
Processing
The fat undergoes a meticulous purification process to remove unwanted elements (lipids, red blood cells, fibrous tissue), leaving concentrated and purified fat cells.
Placement
Finally, the fat is precisely re-injected into the tissues beneath facial folds or hollows. This procedure is always performed by a Specialist Plastic Surgeon expert in Aesthetic Facial Rejuvenation.

LED THERAPY + FAT GRAFTING

Modern facial fat grafting techniques have evolved impressively. One of the most innovative additions is Photobiomodulation (LED therapy), used in two stages:

Pre-injection: The harvested fat is exposed to specialized red or near-infrared LED light for a few minutes to “awaken” the cells and improve their viability before transplantation.

Post-injection: LED therapy is applied to the recipient area to promote angiogenesis, reduce inflammation, and enhance the integration and survival of the fat cells.

This dual application is one of the most advanced steps for optimizing results and achieving a smooth, natural, and stable outcome.

FAQ
