adipose aspiration
what is
Adipose (Fat) Aspiration
Adipose tissue (fat) is a powerful source of regenerative cells and growth factors. Through a quick in-office procedure, we harvest fat from the abdomen, purify it into what’s called a lipoaspirate, and inject it into the site of injury to support repair and tissue regeneration.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and ultrasound guidance, making it both safe and precise. Adipose-derived therapies are ideal for patients seeking a natural, surgery-free solution for joint pain, tendon damage, and other soft tissue concerns.
HOW IT WORKS
Fat Collection
A small amount of adipose (fat) tissue is gently collected from the abdomen using a quick, in-office liposuction procedure. The process is minimally invasive and performed under local anesthesia for your comfort.
Purification & Processing
The collected fat is then processed through a specialized filtration system to isolate and purify the stem cell-rich tissue, known as lipoaspirate. This concentrated graft is prepared for precise application.
Targeted Injection
The purified lipoaspirate is injected into the area of injury or degeneration using ultrasound guidance. These stem cells help reduce inflammation, support tissue repair, and promote long-term healing at the source.
WHAT THIS TREATMENT TARGETS
-
Joint pain from arthritis or injury
-
Soft tissue damage in ligaments and tendons
-
Cartilage degeneration
-
Post-surgical recovery support
COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT ADIPOSE ASPIRATION THERAPY
No—this is a minor, in-office procedure performed with local anesthesia. Most patients feel little to no pain during the fat collection, and any post-procedure soreness is typically mild.
Adipose tissue is usually taken from the lower abdomen. This area offers easy access to fat that is rich in regenerative stem cells, making it ideal for orthopedic and soft tissue applications.
Unlike cosmetic fat grafting, this procedure focuses on isolating regenerative cells from the fat tissue to create a purified lipoaspirate. The goal is not volume restoration, but rather targeted healing and inflammation reduction at the site of injury.
This treatment is ideal for individuals with joint pain, tendon or ligament injuries, or soft tissue damage who are looking for non-surgical options. Patients should have enough abdominal fat for harvesting and be in overall good health. Your provider will evaluate your condition to determine if this therapy is the right fit.
