Today marks the first drops of water 💧 in a desert.

This is the very beginning of treatment for a patient with a severely fibrotic neck after radiation. The first round of nanofat injections delivers regenerative cells into tissue that’s been stiff, dry, and starved of blood supply — much like cracked earth waiting for rain.

It’s the start of a long journey. Over weeks, months, and years, those first drops can turn into streams, greenery, and eventually a thriving forest 🌳 — as new blood vessels form and tissue softens, motion and comfort return.

Every forest starts with a single drop. 🌱

Healing doesn’t stop at a year. Research shows that once blood supply is re-established, the benefits of fat transfer can persist for many years — in some studies, even a decade or more. 🌟

What begins as small drops and green shoots evolves into a thriving ecosystem. With time, a prairie becomes a forest — strong, resilient, and self-sustaining. In the same way, treated tissue continues to renew itself, supported by its own microvascular network. Patients enjoy durable improvements in function, comfort, and quality of life.

With time, healing matures. 🌱 Studies in irradiated tissue show that 1–3 years after fat transfer, most patients continue to experience steady gains — not just softer scars and more pliable skin, but real functional improvements in movement, comfort, and appearance.

What begins as small streams becomes a thriving prairie. Fields of green replace dry land, strengthened by a lasting blood supply. In the same way, revascularized tissue becomes stronger, softer, and more resilient — allowing patients to move and live with greater ease. ✨

Autologous fat grafting has long shown benefits in irradiated skin — improving pliability, easing pain, and enhancing skin quality. These effects are driven by adipose-derived cells that support micro-circulation and help modulate fibrosis.

Nanofat is the next generation: a low-volume, precise way to deliver those regenerative signals exactly where they’re needed most. 🌱

As streams form, little green shoots appear. By 3–6 months, new blood vessels begin to grow in treated tissue. Patients start to feel true functional gains — easier motion, softer scars, healthier skin. ✨

Nanofat ≠ “fat for volume.” ✨
It’s a mechanically emulsified, microfiltered fraction of your own fat, rich in stromal vascular fraction (SVF) and powerful signaling factors. Placed in paper-thin threads, it helps recondition damaged skin and subcutaneous tissue — bringing back glide, softness, and flexibility.

Then the first drops fall 💧. Within just a few weeks, many patients notice the difference: softer skin, less tightness. Studies show improvements as early as 15–20 days after treatment — the first signs of water reaching the ground. 🌱

Radiation saves lives — but sometimes leaves behind a “desert.” Fibrosis makes tissue stiff, dry, and poorly nourished, just like cracked soil without water. This is where healing feels stuck. Tissue is tight, painful, and less flexible. That’s radiation-induced fibrosis (RIF): an over-healed wound where collagen gets stiff, blood flow drops, and motion suffers. The good news? Regenerative approaches are changing the outlook. Over the next few days we’ll break down how we treat RIF using your own tissue—safely, precisely, and backed by studies.

If you’ve gone through radiation, you know the stiffness it can leave behind. It’s not just on the outside — it also affects the deeper tissues that help you swallow, speak, and feel comfortable in your daily life.

Every degree of movement you regain matters. It’s not “just” about turning your head or looking up — it’s about restoring flexibility where you can’t see it too, helping your body function more freely again.

These changes may feel small, but they can be life changing — making everyday moments easier and bringing back confidence in how you move and live.

You don’t have to live stuck in the stiffness. There is hope, and healing is possible.

At AQ Surgery, we’ve been harnessing the power of PRF (platelet‑rich fibrin) injections for both post‑op recovery and regenerative aesthetics long before it hit the mainstream. It’s wonderful to see that nationwide recognition by that’s long overdue is finally here. From accelerating healing after surgical procedures to enhancing collagen, texture, and skin health—our patients consistently enjoy the benefits of PRF. Head over to aqsurgery.com to learn more.

As Head and Neck Cancer Awareness Month comes to a close, we honor the faces and voices of our patients—each one a testament to strength, resilience, and quiet triumph.

You may not see it at first glance, but every smile in these photos belongs to someone who has undergone life-altering surgery. Tongue cancer, jaw cancer, salivary gland tumors—each story carries the weight of diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. And yet, they look like nothing ever happened.

At AQ Surgery, that’s the goal: to restore not only health, but dignity and confidence—to help you look and feel like you again.

To our patients: thank you for trusting us with your care. Your journeys continue to inspire everything we do.

Education is powerful medicine. This month, Dr. Azzi and I had the privilege of sharing knowledge with colleagues, trainees, and our community to illuminate the realities of head and neck cancer. Raising awareness means building understanding—and it’s an honor to play a role in shaping better outcomes through education.

Wrapping up Head and Neck Cancer Awareness Month with gratitude and purpose. This April, we offered free screenings, shared insights on the airwaves, sponsored head and neck marathon event and joined ABOMS in raising national awareness. Early detection saves lives—and every conversation we sparked was a step toward prevention, education, and empowerment.
