At London Cartilage Clinic, we offer a range of adipose tissue therapies – mFat, uFat, and nFat – each tailored to meet different regenerative medicine needs. These therapies utilise the healing potential of adipose-derived stem cells, with varying degrees of processing and application specificity.
mFat Therapy – Micro-fragmented Adipose Tissue
mFat therapy involves the processing of adipose tissue into micro-fragments. This therapy is beneficial for a broad range of regenerative treatments, offering a balance between efficacy and longevity of results.
uFat Therapy – Ultra-fragmented Adipose Tissue
uFat therapy takes adipose tissue processing a step further, creating ultra-fragmented tissue that retains a higher concentration of mesenchymal stem cells. This makes uFat particularly effective for more precise regenerative applications.
nFat Therapy – Nano-fragmented Adipose Tissue
nFat therapy represents the most refined form of adipose tissue processing, breaking down the tissue to nano-scale. This enhances the surface area for interaction, making nFat a powerful option for intensive regenerative needs, especially in osteoarthritis treatment.
Comparing mFat, uFat, and nFat Therapies
Each therapy has its unique advantages:
- mFat: Ideal for general regenerative purposes with sustained effects.
- uFat: Suited for more precise and delicate regenerative needs.
- nFat: Best for aggressive and targeted therapy, particularly effective in treating osteoarthritis.
Frequently Asked Questions
- The choice depends on your specific condition and treatment goals. mFat offers broader applications, uFat provides precise regeneration, and nFat delivers targeted, potent therapy.
- Recovery times vary depending on the therapy and the individual’s condition. Generally, all therapies have minimal recovery times, with specifics depending on the treatment area.
- Yes, all therapies are safe, using the patient’s own adipose tissue, minimising risks of rejection or adverse reactions. Their effectiveness varies based on the specific application and individual patient needs.
