1. Fat Extraction (Liposuction)
Before beginning the treatment, a small amount of fat tissue is extracted, typically from the abdomen, waist, or thighs. This process is done through liposuction, a minimally invasive technique. The fat tissue is removed along with the stem cells, which are then processed. This step is typically performed under local anesthesia.
2. Stem Cell Isolation
The extracted fat tissue is processed in a laboratory setting. Here, the stem cells within the fat tissue are purified and multiplied. These cells are prepared under special conditions to ensure they can have a regenerative effect in the body. The resulting stem cells are then ready to be injected into the skin.
3. Injection of Stem Cells
The prepared stem cells are injected into the skin using fine needles. The injections are typically administered to areas with deep wrinkles, fine lines, and loss of skin elasticity. The procedure usually takes 30-60 minutes and is done under local anesthesia, ensuring the patient feels no pain during the process.
4. Post-Treatment Process
Immediately after the treatment, the skin may show slight redness, swelling, and bruising. These effects subside quickly, and the recovery process is fast. Patients can usually return to their daily routine shortly after the procedure.
5. Results and Recovery
The effects of stem cell treatment typically begin to show in a few weeks. The initial results are seen as the skin appears more vibrant and healthy. Full results become visible in a few months. The stem cells accelerate skin cell regeneration, improving skin elasticity and reducing wrinkles.
6. Treatment Duration and Number of Sessions
Typically, stem cell treatment requires one or two sessions. However, the treatment plan may vary based on the individual’s needs and skin condition. Sessions may be spaced out by a few weeks.
7. Who Is It Suitable For?
Stem cell treatment for the face is ideal for individuals who have lost skin elasticity due to aging, developed wrinkles and fine lines, or want to rejuvenate their skin for a healthier appearance. It is also an effective option for those looking for general skin renewal.
