Micro CRF Injection (Younger Appearance with Fat Injection) [Fukuoka]

· Those interested in fat injection procedure for anti-aging in Fukuoka, Japan.
· Those with eyebags, sunken eye areas or sagging upper eyelids.
· Those with wrinkles between the eyebrows or on the forehead.
· Those who want to fill up cheek volume.
· Those who want to increase facial youthfulness and firmness.

Micro CRF (Condensed Rich Fat) is a method to restore facial volume and improve wrinkles by injecting concentrated fats. The concentrated fats contain natural elements like stem cells and growth factors that can repair aging signs gradually from within. Compared to other methods that aim to increase youthfulness, Micro CRF contains stem cells which are capable of differentiating into all types of body tissue, and the fats act as the foundation for tissue regeneration. This will initiate a healing process inside the body that can improve skin texture, complexion and reduce scar appearance.

CRF is a procedure that concentrates up to 10% of the collected fats that contain large amounts of stem cells. Compared to conventional fat injection, Micro CRF has higher density due to higher number of healthy cells per volume. Our affiliated clinic processes the collected fat cells to eliminate impurities, increasing the possibility to obtain natural finish even in delicate zones such as the eyes and fine lines.

These fat cells are collected from the patient's own body, which greatly reduces risks of infection. These fats will then be processed to remove impurities such as blood, oil, and senescent cells. The purified fats will be rich in stem cells and growth factors, which are important substances in improving aging signs from within.

<Natural Finish>
Some people face issues with hyaluronic acid or conventional fat injection around delicate areas such as the eyes or neck, in which the finish feels hard or has uneven texture. Micro CRF has purified condensed rich fat with higher density, which means it is very smooth and stretches well, so patients can expect a natural and delicate finish.

<Increased stem cell density>
Micro CRF transfers purified fat cells containing stem cells and growth factors that are necessary for the tissues’ living cycle to continue. Micro CRF only consists of high-quality fat that is processed to be concentrated into a finer cell population, which is why it’s called micro CRF. This concentration of stem cells is about 3 times more than that of general fat injections.

<Results in Increased Firmness>
Stem cells in the CRF can differentiate into adipocytes, blood cells and skin cells. These components will aid in skin healing, which will activate collagen production. Besides that, growth factors are also a part of CRF, and play a huge factor in regulating a variety of cellular processes in anti-aging. With all these processes occurring, skin quality, firmness, suppleness and complexion will improve greatly.
