Did You Know Detail Matters in Fat Grafting, Too? Samsao Stem Cell Micro Fat Grafting
Samsao Plastic Surgery explains how its stem cell micro fat grafting uses SVF and an area-specific approach to restore volume in delicate facial areas such as the eyes and nasolabial folds.

Hello, this is Samsao Plastic Surgery.
As we age and facial volume decreases, the eye area may look more sunken than before, nasolabial folds may deepen, and the overall three-dimensional contour of the face may diminish.
These changes are not simply the result of declining skin elasticity. They are closely linked to changes in the fat and soft tissues that make up the face.

Each area of the face differs in skin thickness, fat distribution, and tissue structure. That is why it is important to consider the characteristics of each area rather than filling volume the same way everywhere.
Today, we will take a closer look at stem cell micro fat grafting, which takes even the delicate areas of the face into account.

Volume loss appears differently depending on the area. Hollowing above and below the eyes can give a tired impression, while deeper nasolabial folds or a lack of overall facial dimension may also become noticeable.
That is why it is important to consider the characteristics of each area, such as the upper eyelids, under-eyes, nasolabial folds, and full face, and to focus on the balance of the whole face rather than simply adding volume.

Stem cell micro fat grafting is a method that uses the patient's own fat to restore lost facial volume. Adipose tissue contains not only fat cells but also various cellular components, including adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs), vascular cells, and immune cells. These cellular components are separated and concentrated into the stromal vascular fraction (SVF), and the grafting is planned to suit each person's facial condition and degree of volume loss.

Fat grafting is not just about injecting large amounts of fat. It is important to consider the skin thickness and tissue structure of each area. Areas with thin skin, such as the eye area, require an especially delicate approach.
At Samsao Plastic Surgery, we take into account the size of the fat particles and the characteristics of each injection site. We approach even fine areas such as the upper eyelids, under-eyes, and nasolabial folds with precision, aiming for natural volume balance across the entire face.

So what is the difference between conventional fat grafting and Samsao's stem cell micro fat grafting?
Both conventional fat grafting and stem cell micro fat grafting use the patient's own fat, but they differ in how the fat is processed and which cellular components are used. Conventional fat grafting focuses on restoring lost volume, whereas stem cell micro fat grafting also uses the various cellular components contained in the SVF to improve volume in delicate areas.

Beyond the procedure itself, systematic recovery care before and after surgery is also important. Samsao Plastic Surgery offers a range of recovery programs tailored to each patient's condition, including hyperbaric oxygen therapy, customized IV drip programs, and linked skincare programs.
After surgery, we carefully monitor swelling, bruising, and each patient's recovery progress, providing care suited to their condition.

Samsao Stem Cell Micro Fat Grafting is recommended for people like these!
✔ Those concerned about a tired look due to hollowing of the upper eyelids or under-eyes
✔ Those concerned about nasolabial folds or deep facial creases
✔ Those who feel their face lacks dimension due to overall volume loss
✔ Those who want natural volume enhancement using their own fat

Everyone's facial shape, bone structure, and fat distribution are different. Even when the same area lacks volume, the amount of fat needed and the injection method may vary depending on the overall proportions of the face and the condition of the surrounding tissue. That is why fat grafting should not simply fill in a hollow area; it should be planned by understanding each person's unique facial features and considering overall harmony.
If you are concerned about facial volume loss or hollowing, we encourage you to visit Samsao Plastic Surgery to have your current facial condition accurately assessed and to consult on the improvement method best suited to you 💚
Thank you 😉



Frequently Asked Questions
What is stem cell micro fat grafting?
It is a method that uses the patient's own fat to restore lost facial volume. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs), vascular cells, immune cells, and other components found in adipose tissue are separated and concentrated into the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) for use. The grafting is planned according to each person's facial condition and degree of volume loss.
How is it different from conventional fat grafting?
Both methods use the patient's own fat, but they differ in how the fat is processed and which cellular components are used. Conventional fat grafting focuses on restoring lost volume, while stem cell micro fat grafting uses the various cellular components in the SVF together to improve volume in delicate areas.
Can it be used for under-eye areas or nasolabial folds?
Yes. This article describes approaches targeting areas such as the upper eyelids, under-eyes, and nasolabial folds. Thin-skinned areas like the eye area require a particularly delicate approach, and the amount of fat needed and the injection method can vary depending on each person's facial condition.
How is recovery managed after surgery?
Recovery is managed by carefully monitoring swelling, bruising, and each patient's recovery progress, taking their individual condition into account. Samsao Plastic Surgery also offers various recovery programs, including hyperbaric oxygen therapy, customized IV drip programs, and linked skincare programs.
Who is it recommended for?
It is recommended for people concerned about hollowing above or below the eyes, nasolabial folds, or overall facial volume loss. It is also suggested for those who want natural volume enhancement using their own fat. However, suitability can vary depending on facial condition, so a consultation to check your current condition is recommended.
