The five cell populations inside SVF and why they work as a team
Quick answer
SVF (Stromal Vascular Fraction) is a mixed cell population freshly isolated from your own fat: roughly 30% adipose-derived stem cells, 25% immune cells, 20% fibroblasts, 15% pericytes and 10% endothelial progenitors. Cheongdam The Cell builds its stem cell recovery programmes on SVF because those five populations calm inflammation, repair tissue and restore microvasculature at the same time.
Most people picture 'adipose stem cells' as one cell type, but what an SVF programme actually delivers is the cell community that lives around the capillaries of fat tissue. Cheongdam The Cell publishes the breakdown: about 30% adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) doing the regeneration and differentiation, with the remainder acting as support cells that let repair proceed on several fronts at once.
The ~25% immune fraction modulates inflammation rather than amplifying it, while the ~10% endothelial progenitors and ~15% pericytes together build and stabilise new capillaries — a precondition for healing in poorly perfused tissue such as chronic wounds or thinning scalp. The ~20% fibroblast fraction produces the collagen that skin elasticity depends on.
Practically, SVF is autologous — your own cells, so no immune rejection — and it is isolated the same day. There is no multi-week culture wait as with expanded MSCs, which is why many Cheongdam The Cell programmes can be completed in a single trip to Korea.
It is equally important to be clear that SVF is not a guaranteed cure for any disease. Outcomes depend on general health, age, fat quality, comorbidities and the actual cell yield on the day. Physician assessment and a pre-injection cell count are core parts of the process, not fine print.
SVF is a same-day, multi-cell isolate from fat. Cultured stem cells are a single selected cell type expanded in a lab over weeks, and in Korea they fall under stricter regulatory requirements.
Because the cells are your own there is no rejection risk. The main risks come from the liposuction step and from contamination during processing, which Cheongdam The Cell addresses with the closed automated HuriCell system.
A small fat harvest under local anaesthesia takes about 30 minutes and most patients return to their hotel the same day, avoiding strenuous exercise as advised.
