01
Step One
Harvest
Collect a small amount of fat from an appropriate donor area.
Nano Fat Transfer for Natural-Looking Facial Rejuvenation
Nano Fat Transfer uses fat harvested from your own body and specially processed for precise placement in selected facial areas, offering a personalized approach to age-related facial changes.
Sometimes Facial Aging Is About What's Been Lost
Restoring volume in the right areas can influence how the entire face appears. Nano Fat Transfer approaches facial rejuvenation by using your own harvested and processed fat.
AGING CAN CHANGE BOTH SKIN AND FACIAL FULLNESS
When Your Face Begins to Look Hollow, Tired or Less Youthful
Facial aging is not limited to wrinkles. Changes in fat distribution, skin quality, and underlying support can gradually alter the contours that once gave your face a fuller appearance.
01
Hollow-Looking Cheeks
Address areas where age-related changes have reduced youthful-looking facial fullness.
02
Under-Eye Hollowness
Evaluate volume changes that may contribute to a tired or sunken appearance beneath the eyes.
03
Temple Volume Loss
Restore selected areas where reduced fullness makes the upper face appear more hollow.
04
Fine Lines
Processed fat may be incorporated into a broader rejuvenation plan for selected age-related skin concerns.
05
Changing Facial Contours
Restore strategic volume where facial proportions have changed over time.
06
Tired-Looking Appearance
Hollowness and reduced facial support can make the face appear more fatigued than you feel.
07
Age-Related Volume Loss
Replenish selected areas using material obtained from your own body rather than a synthetic filler.
YOUR OWN FAT BECOMES PART OF THE TREATMENT PLAN
What Happens During Nano Fat Transfer?
Nano Fat Transfer begins by harvesting a small amount of fat, commonly from areas such as the abdomen or thighs. The harvested material is then processed before being placed into carefully selected treatment areas.
A small amount of fat is typically collected from an appropriate donor area of your own body through a limited liposuction procedure.
The harvested tissue is processed before it is prepared for use in the planned facial treatment.
Dermal fillers use manufactured injectable materials. Fat transfer begins with tissue harvested from your own body.
It can be used for facial rejuvenation, but it does not surgically lift and reposition facial tissues like a traditional facelift.
Fat-based treatment may be used in selected areas where volume restoration is appropriate, depending on the processing technique and treatment objective.
Nano fat techniques are also used with the goal of improving the appearance of aging skin, although outcomes vary and should not be guaranteed.
No. Fat retention varies. Some transferred tissue may not persist, which is why final volume cannot be predicted with complete precision.
Some transferred fat may persist long term after it establishes a blood supply, but retention varies significantly between patients and treatment areas.
RESTORE VOLUME WHERE IT CHANGES THE FACE MOST
Areas That May Benefit From Fat-Based Facial Rejuvenation
Treatment areas are selected according to where aging has changed facial fullness, contours, and skin appearance rather than distributing fat uniformly across the face.
01
Cheeks
Restore selected areas of fullness to improve midface contours.
02
Under-Eye Area
Evaluate hollowness carefully due to the delicate anatomy surrounding the eyes.
03
Temples
Address age-related hollowing that can affect upper-face proportions.
04
Midface
Replenish selected volume where facial aging has reduced youthful contours.
05
Lower Face
Evaluate appropriate areas where volume changes influence facial balance.
06
Facial Lines and Creases
Selected concerns may be incorporated into the overall rejuvenation strategy.
07
Overall Facial Skin
Nano fat techniques may be considered when improving visible skin quality is part of the treatment objective.
Midface
Volume changes in the cheeks and midface can influence surrounding areas, including the under-eyes and lower face. Strategic restoration can therefore have a broader visual effect than simply filling an isolated line.
Facial Rejuvenation Using Tissue From Your Own Body
For suitable patients, Nano Fat Transfer offers a different approach from treatments that rely exclusively on manufactured injectable products.
Autologous Treatment
The transferred material originates from your own body.
Addresses Facial Volume Changes
Treatment can target selected areas affected by age-related loss of fullness.
Customized Placement
Fat is placed according to individual facial anatomy and rejuvenation goals.
Natural-Looking Approach
Treatment can focus on restoring proportions rather than dramatically altering facial features.
Treats Multiple Areas
Several appropriate facial regions may be considered within the same treatment plan.
Alternative to Synthetic Fillers
Some patients specifically prefer an autologous option for facial rejuvenation.
Donor Area Benefit
Fat harvesting removes a small amount of tissue from an appropriate donor area.
Potential for Longer-Term Retention
A portion of successfully established transferred fat may remain long term, although retention is variable and cannot be guaranteed.
Nano Fat Transfer Has Two Treatment Sites, Not One
Unlike a standard facial injectable appointment, fat transfer involves both the area where fat is harvested and the facial areas where the processed material is placed.
Choose the Donor Area
Your provider evaluates whether you have an appropriate area from which a small amount of fat can be harvested.
Harvest the Fat
Fat is collected through a limited liposuction technique from the selected donor area.
Prepare and Transfer
The harvested material is processed and prepared according to the intended treatment before being placed into selected facial areas.
Allow Both Areas to Heal
Swelling and bruising can occur at both the donor and treatment sites, so the early appearance is not the final result.
Nano Fat Transfer Requires the Right Face and the Right Donor Area
- You have facial volume loss or hollow-looking areas
- You prefer treatment using tissue harvested from your own body
- You have sufficient donor fat for the planned procedure
- You understand that fat retention cannot be predicted exactly
- You are comfortable undergoing a small fat-harvesting procedure
- You want improvement rather than a guaranteed amount of volume
Not every patient seeking a non-surgical facelift needs fat transfer. Skin laxity, facial volume, donor availability, medical history, previous treatments, and the degree of correction desired should all be considered.
DON'T ADD VOLUME UNTIL YOU KNOW WHERE IT WAS LOST
Facial Rejuvenation Starts With Understanding Your Volume Pattern
At New U Med Spa, your consultation evaluates where facial volume has changed, whether skin laxity is also contributing, and whether Nano Fat Transfer or another non-surgical facial rejuvenation option better matches your needs.
HARVEST. PREPARE. RESTORE. SETTLE.
Your Own Tissue Takes a Different Journey Than Traditional Filler
Nano Fat Transfer requires careful planning at both the donor and treatment areas, followed by enough healing time to evaluate the retained result.
02
Step Two
Prepare
Process the harvested tissue according to the planned facial application.
03
Step Three
Restore
Place the prepared material into selected areas based on facial anatomy and treatment goals.
04
Step Four
Settle
Allow swelling to resolve and the transferred tissue to stabilize before assessing the outcome.
Fat retention, recovery, longevity, and individual results vary.
Recovery Happens Where Fat Leaves and Where It Goes
Because Nano Fat Transfer involves harvesting and facial treatment, tenderness, swelling, or bruising may develop at more than one location.
- Protect Treated Areas
Avoid unnecessary pressure or manipulation unless specifically directed by your provider.
- Care for the Donor Site
Follow instructions for the area where fat was harvested, including activity and garment recommendations when applicable.
- Give the Result Time
Early swelling can temporarily exaggerate facial fullness. Final assessment requires time for swelling to decrease and transferred tissue to stabilize.
Using Your Own Fat Does Not Mean the Procedure Is Risk-Free
Because the material comes from your own body, concerns about certain foreign-material reactions differ from synthetic fillers. However, fat harvesting, processing, and transfer remain medical procedures with potential complications.
Possible effects can include swelling, bruising, tenderness, bleeding, infection, contour irregularities, asymmetry, undercorrection, overcorrection, fat resorption, lumps, cysts, calcification, scarring, and complications at the donor site. Rare but serious complications can occur with facial fat injections.
Your Medical History Matters at Both Treatment Sites
- Discuss previous facial injections, fat transfer, and cosmetic procedures.
- Share medications, supplements, allergies, and relevant medical conditions.
- Tell your provider about healing, bleeding, or infection concerns.
- Understand both the harvesting and transfer portions of the procedure.
- Follow all recovery instructions and report concerning symptoms promptly.
EARLY FULLNESS IS NOT FINAL FAT RETENTION
Judge the Result After Swelling Subsides and the Tissue Stabilizes
Immediately after treatment, swelling can make the face appear fuller than the eventual outcome. Over time, some transferred fat may be retained while some may be resorbed. Before-and-after results should therefore be evaluated after appropriate healing. Individual outcomes vary.
After
Before
Facial Volume Should Be Restored With a Plan, Not Simply Added
Nano Fat Transfer involves more than injecting volume. The donor area, processing method, facial anatomy, amount transferred, placement, and realistic expectations all influence treatment planning at New U Med Spa.
- Whole-Face Assessment
Facial volume changes are evaluated in relation to skin quality, contours, and proportions.
- Personalized Treatment Selection
Fat transfer and other facial rejuvenation options can be considered according to what is actually causing your concerns.

YOUR OWN FAT CHANGES THE PROCESS AND THE QUESTIONS
What Patients Want to Know About Nano Fat Transfer
Understanding where the fat comes from, what happens after transfer, and how results differ from fillers can help you make a more informed decision.
Fat is harvested from an appropriate donor area of your own body. The abdomen or thighs may be considered depending on your anatomy and treatment plan.
No. Traditional dermal fillers use manufactured injectable products. Fat transfer uses tissue harvested from your own body and requires an additional harvesting and processing stage.
It is better considered a minimally invasive facial rejuvenation procedure rather than a true facelift. It can address selected volume and skin concerns but does not surgically reposition deeper facial tissues or remove excess skin.
Some successfully established transferred fat may persist long term, but the amount retained varies. Aging, weight changes, technique, treatment area, and individual healing can influence the outcome.
The terminology and processing methods can vary. Nano fat generally refers to more extensively processed fat-derived tissue intended for very small-volume or skin-focused applications, while traditional structural fat grafting uses larger viable fat parcels primarily for volume restoration. Your provider should explain exactly which technique is being proposed.
