Dermatologists Promote Nanofat Injections for Skin Regeneration

Munich and New York dermatologists describe nanofat injections as a regenerative treatment that improves skin quality rather than just adding volume.

Procedure Moves Fat to Face

Doctors siphon adipose tissue from areas like flanks using liposuction before processing it into a fine liquid. This milky substance contains stem cells and growth factors that patients receive via injection or microneedling. The treatment targets thinning skin around the eyes, neck, and chest to improve texture without restoring significant volume. Unlike traditional fillers, this method avoids causing puffiness under the eyes because the fat does not attract water.

Regenerative Cells Repair Tissue

Patricia Ogilvie states that re-injecting fat regenerates the full potential of healthy skin seen in recent decades. Sheerene Idriss explains that regenerative cells communicate with surrounding tissue to stimulate collagen production and blood vessel formation. The process repairs tissue from the inside out by addressing aging signs instead of merely filling wrinkles. Patients seeking better resilience and thickness find this approach suitable for those noticing crepey skin changes.

Treatment Targets Skin Quality

Ogilvie notes that trends ignoring adipose tissue importance are not worth following in modern aesthetic medicine. Idriss adds that the ideal candidate wants to improve skin quality rather than add volume with fillers. The procedure offers natural-looking results because living tissue integrates beautifully into the face structure. Both experts agree this method addresses structural unsoundness caused by previous fat loss procedures.
