Are you tired of feeling self-conscious about under-eye hollows or shadows? We understand how frustrating it can be to constantly look in the mirror and see tired eyes staring back at you. At Seattle Plastic Surgery, we offer a potential solution: nano fat under-eyes. 

Nano fat is an exciting advancement in facial rejuvenation that may help soften hollow areas under the eyes and gently refresh your appearance. In this article, we’ll walk you through what nano fat transfer under-eyes is all about, how it works, and why it may be right for you.

What Is Nano Fat Under-Eye Treatment?

Nano fat under-eye treatment is a specialized procedure where a patient’s fat is carefully extracted, processed, and then injected into the delicate under-eye area. This process transforms the extracted fat into a smoother, more refined form, often referred to as “nano” fat. By utilizing the patient’s own tissue, this approach may yield a more natural-looking outcome compared to synthetic fillers.

Fat used for nano fat injections is commonly harvested from a donor site such as the abdomen or thighs. This helps ensure that the body more readily accepts the transfer, and it may reduce the risk of adverse reactions. Another benefit is that it can provide longer-lasting results than some other injectable treatments, although every patient’s experience may vary.

How Do Nano Fat Injections Work?

Nano fat injections involve a careful process of purifying and refining the collected fat cells. Our team performs a gentle liposuction on a donor site, typically one with a little extra fat. Once the fat is extracted, we place it through a filtration or processing system that breaks it down into a finer consistency. By refining the fat, we can make sure that the injected solution is smoother and more easily distributed.

When it comes to nano fat under eyes, the final purified fat is injected with a specialized cannula or needle designed for precision in delicate areas. The idea is to place the nano fat in strategic locations under your eyes to provide subtle volume and support. This may help reduce the appearance of hollows or dark shadows while maintaining a natural look.

Benefits Of Nano Fat For The Under-Eyes

Nano fat may offer multiple benefits for those seeking a gentle and natural-looking enhancement. Here are a few potential advantages:

  • Natural Source: Because it uses your own fat, the chance of an allergic reaction may be lower than with synthetic fillers.
  • Longer-Lasting Effects: Nano fat transfer under-eyes can provide effects that may last longer than some temporary fillers.
  • Dual Benefit: Harvesting fat from another area of the body means you may enjoy a slight improvement in that region as well.
  • Improved Under-Eye Appearance: It can help fill in hollows, soften shadows, and smooth out texture.

The procedure is particularly appealing for people who want a subtle improvement that looks like “you,” only more refreshed. However, it’s important to note that each individual’s outcome can vary based on factors such as skin type, age, and lifestyle habits.

What To Expect During Nano Fat Under-Eye Treatment

When you come to our clinic for nano fat transfer under-eyes, you can expect a friendly and welcoming environment. Our team will guide you every step of the way, from the consultation through recovery. Here’s a quick rundown of what the process usually involves:

  • Consultation and Preparation: We’ll begin with an in-depth discussion to understand your goals and address any specific concerns. During this time, we’ll determine where the donor fat will be taken from and explain the harvesting process.
  • Anesthesia & Liposuction: On the day of treatment, we’ll use a local anesthetic or sedation to keep you comfortable. Then we’ll gently remove a small amount of fat from your chosen donor site via liposuction.
  • Refining the Fat: The harvested fat is carefully processed to isolate the most viable fat cells, resulting in a smoother consistency.
  • Injecting the Nano Fat: Using a fine cannula or needle, the nano fat is injected into targeted areas under the eyes. This process is done with meticulous precision to ensure a safe and natural-looking placement.
  • Recovery & Follow-Up: You can expect some mild swelling or bruising, which usually fades within a couple of weeks. We’ll provide post-treatment instructions on how to care for the area and schedule a follow-up visit to assess your healing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Nanofat under-eye cost?

The cost of nano fat under-eye treatment can vary from patient to patient, depending on factors such as the amount of fat that needs to be transferred and whether additional procedures are performed simultaneously. We provide individualized quotes during your consultation after evaluating your specific situation. Our goal is to ensure you receive a treatment plan that fits your needs and your budget.

What dissolves fat under the eyes?

Generally, the body naturally metabolizes some of the transferred fat over time. If you receive fat grafting under your eyes, certain enzymes in your body break down a portion of the fat cells. However, if you’re referring to accidental placement or changes in your appearance, there isn’t a simple “fat dissolver” injection. It’s best to work closely with a qualified provider to address any unwanted changes or concerns.

What are the side effects of nano fat?

Potential side effects of nano fat injections may include swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort at both the injection site and the donor site. These effects usually improve on their own within a couple of weeks. Since this treatment utilizes your own fat, the risk of allergic reactions is generally low. It’s essential to follow all post-procedure instructions to minimize the likelihood and severity of side effects.

How long does nano fat transfer last?

Results from nano fat transfer under the eyes vary from person to person. In many cases, the body may reabsorb some of the transferred fat; however, the fat that is taken can offer a longer-lasting improvement compared to many synthetic fillers. Some patients may enjoy their results for a year or more, while others might need a touch-up sooner. Your skincare routine, overall health, and lifestyle can also impact how well the fat grafting holds up.
