No booking until you confirm.

What SVF is

SVF is harvested from fat tissue. It contains adipose-derived stem cells, which can also be cultured. Beyond tissue regeneration, SVF supplies growth factors and creates an environment in which regeneration can happen.

The body relies on many kinds of adult stem cells every day. They keep the heart beating, help the brain work, help the kidneys clean the blood and replace skin cells that are shed. SVF therapy uses this regenerative capacity. Research on SVF is active in many countries.

Skin anti-aging

For skin, SVF is applied to the dermis for elasticity, anti-aging, wrinkles and brightening. It promotes collagen synthesis in the dermis and supports the skin's natural healing.

Skin elasticity and thickness recover, the epidermis renews faster, and tone looks clearer and smoother. Overall moisture content rises, so makeup may also sit better.

Lahyeon also runs related regenerative programs under the name Miracell Therapy, processed with the SMART M-CELL4 system and aimed at elasticity, hair-loss care, condition care and anti-aging.

Hair loss

SVF is used for many types and causes of hair loss in both men and women. It is injected into the dermis of the scalp to regenerate cells and tissue and improve the environment for healthy hair growth.

The clinic cites research reporting that SVF in the scalp regenerates hair matrix cells and melanin pigment and lengthens the growth phase of hair, so new hair grows and existing hair can turn darker and thicker. Results vary by person.

How the SVF Clinic works

The clinic uses SVF that has finished normal development and has a stable capacity to differentiate. Each program is matched to your condition and goal, and the aim is to create a regenerative environment for cells and tissue so the effect is sustained.

The SVF Clinic page also lists two related programs: an immune IV that delivers nutrients such as high-dose vitamin C, glutathione, zinc and selenium straight into a vein, and a custom skin booster chosen after a skin analysis.

Who cannot have it, and aftercare

Most adults can be treated, but treatment may be limited if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have cancer or take immunosuppressants. Suitability is decided at consultation.

For 2–3 days after treatment, do not rub or press the treated area. Drink enough water, eat balanced meals, avoid smoking and alcohol, and get enough sleep.

How fat is harvested, how long the visit takes and any downtime are explained at consultation.

Questions

Where do the cells come from?

SVF is harvested from fat tissue. It contains adipose-derived stem cells and supplies growth factors. The exact harvesting method is explained at consultation.

When will I see results?

For skin, gradual improvement is usually felt from 2–4 weeks. For hair loss, the timing of new growth varies by person and is discussed at consultation. Results vary by person.

Can anyone have SVF therapy?

Most adults can, but it may be limited during pregnancy or breastfeeding, for people with cancer and for those on immunosuppressants. The doctor confirms this at consultation.

Why does stem cell therapy cost more than other treatments?

Facilities that can separate and process cells are limited, the work needs specialized technique and equipment, and strict quality and safety checks are required.

Results vary by person.

Photo from the private recovery room. I was moved enough to write a review. Dr. Im Jung-woo kept me at ease right up until the sedation. At my age the weight wasn't coming off easily, so after thinking it over I had liposuction on my thighs and abdomen. The director checks on you carefully at follow-ups too. I'm still recovering, but I think it went well.

I had breast surgery with the representative director, and he's so skilled I wanted to leave a review. I really like the result. I'm going in every week for aftercare these days.

I wanted a natural change to my look, compared several places and ended up at Lahyeon. At the first consultation they listened to my concerns properly. There was no push to book a treatment; they explained honestly only what I needed, which made me trust them and decide without pressure. The result looked far more natural than I expected. People around me only said things like "you look prettier somehow". They walked me through recovery in detail and answered every question kindly, which was reassuring. If you're looking for a clinic in Gangnam and want a natural result, I'd recommend a consultation here. They don't overdo it and suggest what suits you. Overall a very good experience.

I've trusted them with my skin and scalp for over two years. I also do body care at their medical spa. It isn't cheap, but once you get used to it you can't stop. You don't notice much while you're doing it, but when you stop it really shows. If you want private care, Lahyeon is a good choice.

The clinic is clean throughout and has a private atmosphere, so I could relax during my treatment. The consultation was thorough and based on my skin's condition. Afterwards my skin felt noticeably more hydrated and even. The staff were kind too. I was satisfied.

The consultant, front desk, the doctor and the aftercare team were all kind. I was surprised; it's the first clinic like that for me. The price was fair with no padding, so I paid the deposit right after the consultation. Glad I found a clinic that felt good from start to finish.
