          Abstract

          The indications for fat grafting are increasing steadily. In microfat grafting, thin injection cannulas are used. The authors describe their experience of fat injection with even thinner injection needles up to 27 gauge. The fat used for this purpose is processed into "nanofat." Clinical applications are described. Preliminary results of a study, set up to determine the cellular contents of nanofat, are presented.
