SVF Treatment

What is SVF Stem Cell Treatment?

SVF stands for Stromal Vascular Fraction, a mixture of cells, growth factors and other components derived from adipose tissue. It is extracted through a procedure called lipoaspiration, in which between 50-100 cc of fatty tissue is removed from the patient’s own body, usually from areas such as the abdomen or thighs. Once the fat is collected, it is processed to separate the SVF from other components such as adipocytes (fat cells).

SVF is rich in regenerative and healing properties, making it a valuable resource in medical and aesthetic applications. It has the ability to promote tissue repair and collagen production. These properties make SVF a highly sought-after treatment to improve various aspects of skin and aesthetic appearance, addressing cosmetic concerns such as skin ageing, scars, hair loss and nanofat.

How is SVF Stem Cell Treatment Applied?

To perform SVF treatment, a small amount of adipose tissue (between 50-100 cc) is first harvested from the patient by lipoaspiration, with the abdominal region usually preferred. The collected fat is then processed to isolate the stromal vascular fraction containing regenerative cells. Once the SVF is isolated, it is carefully injected into targeted areas using finely tuned needles or cannulas. This precise delivery allows the regeneration of tissues and the promotion of natural collagen production, resulting in rejuvenation of the skin tissue. The entire procedure is performed with minimal discomfort and downtime for the patient.

SVF Stem Cell Therapy is one of the most preferred regenerative medical applications of recent years with its skin renewal, skin damage elimination and skin rejuvenating effect.

Which Areas Can It Be Applied?

The versatility of Stromal Vascular Fractionation (SVF) allows for a wide range of aesthetic applications and offers targeted solutions to improve various areas of the body. We can list some important areas where SVF can be effectively applied as follows;

Facial Rejuvenation: SVF injections can remove fine lines, wrinkles and signs of facial aging. SVF can help regain a youthful appearance by stimulating collagen production and improving skin quality. In the same session, nanofat application and volumising applications, which are separated according to the method of obtaining, can be performed according to the preference of the patient and the doctor.

Scar Treatment: Whether caused by acne, surgery or injury, scars can be visibly reduced with SVF treatments. The regenerative properties of SVF encourage tissue remodelling and repair, resulting in smoother, higher quality skin tissue.

Hair Loss Treatment: SVF is also used to reduce hair loss and improve the thickness and density of hair follicles. SVF provides a supportive environment for hair follicle regeneration by encouraging the formation of new blood vessels and offers an intensely effective solution in a single session for people experiencing hair loss or thinning.

Hand Rejuvenation: Hands are often recognised as the primary sign of aging, with loss of moisture volume and visible veins becoming more prominent over time. SVF injections can add volume to the hands, improve skin quality and increase skin thickness, making veins less visible. In applications where volume is required, nanofat application can be considered in the same session according to the patient’s and doctor’s preference, minimising the appearance of wrinkles on the skin and providing a younger and rejuvenated appearance.

Skin Tightening: SVF stem cell treatments can help tighten sagging skin in areas such as the face, neck, arms and abdomen. SVF rejuvenates and tightens the skin by stimulating collagen production and increasing skin elasticity, resulting in a more youthful and elastic appearance.

When we evaluate all these comprehensive features, we have included the most popular areas where SVF can be applied in aesthetic procedures. With its regenerative properties and versatile applications, SVF stem cell therapy applications with Doku Clinic expertise and quality offer patients a safe, effective and natural approach to achieve their aesthetic goals.

Which Problems Can Be Treated?

SVF Stem Cell Therapy can be applied to all areas of your body where you want rejuvenation.

Results immediately after treatment:

• Softening of wrinkles,
• Regeneration and improvement of skin tissue,
• Healing of scars from burns, trauma and even acne,
• Younger and more dynamic skin structure formation,
• Reduced hair loss, accelerated growth and increased thickness,
• Strengthening the hair after hair transplantation,
• Repairing effect on suture scars after surgical operations.

This Treatment Not Recommended for Those

• People with low platelet counts,
• Persons with chronic liver pathology,
• Those with active infection problems,
• People with coagulation disorders,
• Cancer patients,
• Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

What Should Be Considered After the Procedure?

After the procedure, it is recommended to keep the area where the fat cell was obtained (usually the belly/abdominal area) clean.  In some cases, depending on the needles used, small and temporary bruises and redness may occur. These side effects can be alleviated by applying ice compress. Sunbathing and solarium should be avoided during SVF Stem Cell Treatment. At the end of the treatment course, there is no harm in sunbathing after the sensitivity and bruises on the skin heal. The person can return to normal life after the procedure. Patients may feel pain in the areas where fat is removed for the first two-three days, this is a normal condition. It is recommended to avoid heavy exercise and sports in the first week.

What Are the Advantages of SVF Treatment?

Dual Benefit: Fat removed from areas such as the belly can serve a dual purpose by reducing excess fat in that area while at the same time being used for rejuvenation in other parts of the body.

Natural Volume: With the nanofats obtained during SVF treatment, it offers a natural alternative to synthetic fillers by using the patient’s own fat cells for volumisation and filling, depending on the physician and patient decision.

Long Lasting Results: Compared to temporary fillers, SVF treatment can provide longer lasting results as the transplanted fat cells integrate with the surrounding tissues.

Versatility: SVF treatment can be used for a variety of cosmetic and reconstructive purposes, including facial rejuvenation and wound revision, providing versatility in addressing different aesthetic concerns.

Since the patient’s own fat cells are used in SVF treatment, the risk of rejection or allergic reaction of the body is reduced and safer results are achieved.

It is a comfortable procedure and does not cause serious pain or soreness. (It is normal for the patient to feel pain in the fat removal area for a few days.)

It restructures the skin in a natural way and gives shine and vitality.

The effect is permanent and long lasting.
