Adipose Derived Stem Cells (ADSC) are stored in our adipose (fat) tissue in the upper thigh/abdomen and can be harvested with a lipoaspiration procedure. Once the adipose cells are removed from the body, they are placed in a “centrifuge machine” that spins them and then are purified down to “nanofat” containing your bodies adipose derived stem cells and concentrates the substances that are the most valuable, such as your own different types of natural growth factors. A sample of that concentration is then used on a specific area of the body in our La Jolla Stem Cell Treatment where the cells go to work improving the appearance and tone of the skin.
