How it works Mini-STEM®

1
Harvesting

Relief of autologous lipoaspirato with dedicated cannula 12G

2
Washing machine

50 ml Ringer Lactate + centrifugation 5 minutes

3
Processing

Liquid phase separation: RBC, deleted cell debris and anesthetic

4
Micro-

Injectable suspension with 92%+ cell vitality. Injectable with 18G–22G needles for structural lipofilling and joint treatments.

5
Nanofat

Additional microfat emulsification to obtain fluid nanofats, injectable with 21G–23G needles. Indicated for periocular area, fine wrinkles and delicate surfaces where the microfat is not injectable.

Why MiniStemM®

Higher than methods
traditional

The liquid phase separation process during the centrifugation preserves the isthological integrity of the tissue. No other system on the market guarantees this level of purity and vitality.

100% washed — zero anesthetic residues, RBC and cell debris
No adipose tissue emulsification
Original vascularity preserved in microfat clusters
Injectable with fine gauge needles (21G–23G )
