Nano Fat Application for Face and Neck

For those who wish to use the body’s own healing power instead of external synthetic substances for skin rejuvenation, Nano Fat Injection is a revolutionary treatment. Unlike traditional fat grafting, the goal here is not to “add volume” but to “repair tissue.”

Op. Dr. Bekir Can Gümüşlü successfully uses this “golden liquid,” which is rich in stem cells obtained from the patient’s own fat, particularly in the treatment of challenging areas such as under-eye dark circles, fine wrinkles, and neck lines.

Nano Fat is the process of mechanically liquefying fat tissue by passing it through special filters. As a result of this process, fat cells are broken down, but the Mesenchymal Stem Cells and growth factors within them remain free and active. When injected under the skin, these cells work like repair workers to increase collagen production, improve skin quality, and lighten the skin tone.

Which Problems Does Nano Fat Solve?

This application is not a filling procedure; it is a Tissue Regeneration treatment. It is most commonly preferred for the following issues:

• Under-Eye Dark Circles and Hollowness: When the thin skin around the eyes darkens, it creates a tired expression. Nano Fat thickens the skin in this area, lightens its color, and provides vitality.

• Neck and Décolletage Lines: It is one of the most effective methods for treating the horizontal neck lines known as “Venus Rings.”

• Fine Wrinkles: It repairs fine but deepened lines, such as smoker’s lines (barcode lines) above the lip and crow’s feet.

• Skin Blemishes and Quality: When applied to the entire face, it balances skin moisture, reduces the appearance of blemishes, and provides a “porcelain” glow.

How Is the Procedure Performed? The Journey of Stem Cells

Nano Fat application can be performed in a clinic environment or operating room conditions under local anesthesia (or sedation). The process consists of three stages:

Fat Harvesting

A small amount of fat (10–20 cc) is harvested from a fat-rich area, such as the abdomen or inner thigh, using thin cannulas (via the liposuction method).

Emulsification and Filtration

The harvested fat is refined by passing it through special apparatuses and filters. Fibrous tissues are separated, and fat cells are broken down into a liquid state. The result is a bright yellow liquid rich in stem cells.

Injection

The obtained Nano Fat is injected just beneath the skin (superficial layer) using very fine-tipped needles or cannulas, and can also be injected into deeper tissues for volume.

Recovery Process and Longevity

The greatest advantage of the Nano Fat application is that the risk of allergy is zero (since it is your own tissue).

• Recovery: There may be slight sensitivity in the area where the fat was harvested for 1–2 days. Mild edema due to injection may occur on the face, but it subsides within 2–3 days.

• Duration of Effect: The effect of the procedure is not in the form of “instant swelling” as seen with fillers. Starting from the first month, as the stem cells begin to work, a significant brightening, tightening, and rejuvenation of the skin begin. The effect reaches its peak in the third month.

• Longevity: The restorative effect of stem cells is permanent. The increase in skin quality continues for years. However, as the aging process continues, the procedure can be repeated after 2–3 years to provide refreshment.

Op. Dr. Bekir Can Gümüşlü frequently combines Nano Fat application with Micro Fat (volume-giving fat) or Facelift surgeries to achieve both volume enhancement and an increase in skin quality.
