The fat obtained from the patient with suitable technique is filtered and injected to patient. The fat in micro (Nano) fat injection is filtered from an increasingly smaller serial filter, resulting in a much thinner and more fluid fat graft.

As for the stem cell assisted fat injection, approximately 120cc more than required fat is obtained, the stem cells are separated in a Ministry of Health approved stem cell laboratories, and, in a liquid form, they are ready to use in fat injection zones. With fat injection, stem cell repairing effect is more apparent.
