Via multiple small incisions, delicate cannulas are used to suction the excess fat. Extraction methods may deploy one of more of the following: manual, motorized, laser, ultrasound, or radiofrequency extraction. Sculpted areas of excess fat in areas may include the jowls, neck, abdomen, flanks, back, the tail bone, thighs, and many other sites. The harvested fat can then processed and injected in layered fashion into the specified area. Additional sessions may be required.

As an added option, the extracted fat can be modified and injected for tissue augmentation. In this state-of-the-art procedure, the extracted stem-cell rich fat cells can be processed into small-particle sized fat cells, with the stem cells extracted, and high density growth factors from platelet rich plasma added for enhanced augmentation, regenerative, and anti-aging effects.

Furthermore, fat-derived stem cells preparation can be made. LipoStem, the laser stimulated, antioxidant energized, and autologous blood stem cell enriched fat stem cells are injected intramuscularly or subcutaneously. In a surgical center, liposuction is performed under local anesthesia to remove about 200 cc of fat. This fat is then processed with specialized equipments to fractionate to produce a stromal vascular fraction containing the fat stem cells. LipoStem is the then produced by laser stimulation, antioxidant energization, and autologous blood stem cell enrichment.

Local or general anesthesia may be used.
