How does Nano Fat differ from traditional fat grafting?
Nano Fat is mechanically emulsified into a finer, cell-rich solution that contains regenerative elements but no intact fat cells, unlike traditional fat grafting which aims to add volume. This makes Nano Fat ideal for delicate tissue like the scalp.
Can Nano Fat Hair Restoration be repeated or combined with other treatments?
Yes. Nano Fat can be repeated for cumulative benefits and is frequently combined with PRP, stem cell therapy, or FUE to enhance results. Dr. Wise customizes a treatment plan based on your needs and goals.
Are there any risks or side effects with Nano Fat Hair Restoration?
Risks are minimal but may include temporary swelling, bruising, or discomfort at the injection and donor sites. Infection, uneven results, or prolonged tenderness are rare but possible.
How soon can I color or style my hair after the procedure?
You should wait at least 1 to 2 weeks before coloring, perming, or applying chemical treatments to your hair to allow the scalp to recover and avoid irritation entirely.
Does the quality of my fat impact the results?
Yes. Patients with healthier fat deposits tend to respond better, as high-quality adipose tissue contains more regenerative cells. Dr. Wise evaluates donor site suitability during your consultation.
Is there an age limit for undergoing Nano Fat Hair Restoration?
There is no strict age limit, but candidacy depends on scalp health, donor fat availability, and overall medical condition. Many patients of all ages have benefited from this treatment.
Will Nano Fat Hair Restoration help with scarring from previous procedures?
In some cases, yes. The regenerative properties of Nano Fat can improve tissue quality and may reduce the appearance of scars on the scalp from prior transplants or injuries.
Can Nano Fat be used for eyebrows or facial hair restoration?
Yes. Nano Fat has applications beyond the scalp and may be used to support hair growth in the eyebrows, beard, or mustache, depending on your treatment goals.
What lifestyle changes can support my results after Nano Fat Hair Restoration?
Maintaining a healthy diet, managing stress, avoiding smoking, and using physician-recommended topical treatments can support optimal hair regrowth and scalp health.
