Use of the body's own fat for a naturally beautiful appearance
Microfat and SVF for Natural Volumization and the Body's Own Regeneration
The ACA technique (ACA = autologous conditioned adipose tissue) is a simple and fast solution for the collection and processing of non-homogeneous fluids such as adipose tissue in order to obtain microfat and stromal vascular fraction (SVF). The microfat is obtained after a centrifugation cycle. The particle size is reduced to 1.2 mm, leaving the adipocytes intact to preserve their volumizing effect. SVF is isolated by mechanical disruption of the adipocytes, whereby the regenerative cells within SVF can be recovered as a pellet.
Primary Effect of Microfat
Volumization1,3,4
Primary Effect of SVF
Primary effect of SVF1,4,5
Possibility of Combining Autologous Fat / Regenerative Cells
For example, with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to stimulate the body's own regeneration processes1
100% Autologous
Purely mechanical/physical processing of the fat1,5
Speed
Microfat and SVF are ready for injection within about 20 minutes after fat removal1
Innovative Combination Options
Microfat/SVF/PRP can be combined for optimal volume delivery regeneration1, 3, 4, 5
