The Procedure
What is SVF?
Researchers have found that lipoaspirate contains different kinds of cells that may be used for fat grafting — producing better cosmetic outcomes including improved texture, volume, and viability of regenerated cells.
Stem Cells from Your Own Fat
Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF)
Regenerative Medicine
Regenerative therapy using stem cells with growth factors harvested from your own fat — applied to fat grafting, reconstructive surgeries, scar revision, and skin rejuvenation.
Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) at Natural Results Plastic Surgery is performed personally by Dr. Carlos Mata — board-certified plastic surgeon (ABPS/FACS), Castle Connolly Top Doctor since 2018, and Newsweek America's Best Plastic Surgeon — at the practice's AAAASF-accredited surgical suite in Scottsdale, Arizona. 25,000+ procedures performed.
An Introduction
Stromal vascular fraction (SVF) at our plastic surgery office is performed through an innovative harvesting technique (liposuction) of stem cells with varied growth factors from your own fat tissue. Your growth factors are vital to your everyday health — they influence bodily activities such as handling inflammations, causing cells to die or grow, or triggering specialized cells to perform particular actions. Dr. Carlos Mata (a.k.a. Dr. Scottsdale®) can provide stromal vascular fraction therapy as an application of stem cells to help generate and repair damaged tissues.
02
Candidacy
Best Candidates for SVF
Ideal candidates for stromal vascular fraction should be in overall good health, have excess fatty tissue to be harvested for use, and have a viable body region for cell regeneration. At a personalized, private consultation, Dr. Mata can discuss whether or not SVF is a viable option for your specific case — and explain in detail how the process works, risks, benefits, and more.
03
Applications
What to Expect
The expectation of stromal vascular fraction is that this is a regenerative process that accelerates wound healing, the formation of new blood vessels, and enhances the generation of cells to act as fillers in procedures like breast enlargement, reconstructive surgeries, scar revision, and skin rejuvenation.
The healing process for this procedure takes about 2 months.
