A stem cell facial, also known as a stem cell facelift, is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that leverages the regenerative potential of stem cells to enhance the skin's appearance and reduce the signs of aging. The process typically begins with the extraction of stem cells, which are often harvested from the patient's own body through a mini-liposuction procedure. This is commonly performed on areas with excess fat, such as the abdomen or thighs. The collected fat is then processed to isolate the stem cells, a step that involves centrifugation or other specialized techniques to ensure a high concentration of regenerative cells.

Once purified, these stem cells are mixed with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and reintroduced into the facial tissues through a series of microinjections. These injections target key areas that have experienced volume loss and degradation, such as the cheeks, under-eye area, and jawline. The stem cells work synergistically with the PRP to stimulate collagen production, improve blood flow, and rejuvenate the skin at a cellular level. The results of the procedure, which can include smoother skin texture, reduced wrinkles, and a more youthful appearance, typically become more noticeable over the course of a few weeks as the cells continue to promote tissue regeneration and healing. This treatment is praised for its natural-looking outcomes and minimal downtime compared to traditional surgical facelifts.
