Fat Quality Matters

Why Fat Quality Matters in Medical Treatments

In recent years, autologous fat transfer (Lipotransfer) has gained popularity across multiple medical disciplines, from aesthetic surgery to breast reconstruction and scar treatment. However, the success of these procedures hinges on one critical factor: the quality of the fat used.

Not All Fat Is Created Equal

Autologous fat (harvested from the patient’s own body) is a valuable resource in specialties like dermatology, urology, gynecology, maxillofacial surgery, and - of course - reconstructive and aesthetic surgery. But simply extracting and reinjecting fat isn’t enough. Excessive manipulation, exposure to improper temperatures, or the use of imprecise techniques - such as traditional aspiration with poorly sized cannulas - can compromise adipocyte viability.

The consequences?

• Lower cell survival rates.
• Accelerated fat graft resorption.
• Inconsistent results and higher patient/physician dissatisfaction.

At UpViser, we’ve spent years developing solutions that streamline the surgical process - from extraction to transfer - using high-quality, scientifically backed products.

Precision Solutions for Every Need

body-jet® evo & eco: Premium Fat Transfer with WAL Technology

Developed by Human Med AG (Germany), the body-jet® system uses innovative Water-Jet Assisted Liposuction (WAL) to extract fat gently and efficiently, minimizing tissue damage and preserving adipocyte integrity.

Key benefits:

• Non-tumescent technique: Selective infiltration and aspiration during surgery - unique in fat harvesting.
• Surgical precision: Reduces procedure time and trauma to surrounding tissues.
• Ideal adipocyte size (1.2 mm): Optimizes graft viability.
• Minimal processing: Higher cell survival and more natural results.
• No heat generation: Preserves live nucleated cells - critical for regenerative medicine.

Scientific evidence: Studies confirm WAL enhances adipocyte viability and graft retention. Explore our research compilation here.

NOVA-fat: Safe Lipofilling in a Single-Use Kit

For small-volume lipofilling, NOVA-fat provides a sterile, disposable kit (made in France), ideal for 10–60 cc extractions. It ensures:

• Safety: Efficient design for any OR, even under local anesthesia.
• Predictable results: Microfat grafts integrate better, reducing resorption.

TULIP Cannulas: Precision in Tissue Handling

Globally renowned for quality, TULIP cannulas feature CellFriendly™ technology to:

• Gently manipulate adipose tissue.
• Enable precise reinjection for optimal aesthetic outcomes.

With TULIP’s Microfat & Nanofat Sizing System, fat can be refined for regenerative treatments, improving integration and longevity.

Nanofat Solutions: Regeneration & Rejuvenation

Nanofat - a lipid emulsion rich in growth factors, derived from microfat - is ideal for:

• Facial rejuvenation.
• Scar treatment.
• Tissue regeneration.

UpViser offers complete systems to transform microfat into nanofat, ensuring maximum precision and quality.

Experience Makes the Difference

David del Olmo, CEO of UpViser, with over 8 years collaborating with surgeons across Spain, Portugal, and Northern Europe, emphasizes:

»Success lies in minimizing adipose tissue manipulation and using the right tools. Every step must respect cellular structure to ensure graft survival. At UpViser, we curate products that maximize the viability of transferred fat.«
