Background: Wide variations in fat graft survival have been reported. The authors
hypothesize that treating the adipose tissue on Telfa gauze creates a processed lipoaspirate …

Background: Clinical results of fat grafting have been unpredictable. In this article, the
authors hypothesize that centrifugation creates “graded densities” of fat with varying …

Background: Variability in harvest and processing technique may impact the success of fat
grafting. This study compared properties of fat grafts produced by differing methods and …

Background Although water-jet force–assisted liposuction technique (WAL) was
demonstrated to have favorable effects on fat grafting, controversy continues concerning the …

Background: Fat grafting is widely used for soft-tissue augmentation; however, the related
clinical outcome remains variable and technique-dependent. The mechanisms underlying …

Background: Adipocyte viability has been emphasized as essential for fat graft survival.
There is no universal agreement on the methodology for handling fat grafts. Objective: Two …

Background: Given the wide application of autologous fat grafting, a new emphasis on fat
processing techniques has emerged in an effort to limit unpredictable degrees of resorption …

Background: Lipomodeling is a technique that uses the patient's own fat for tissue
regeneration and augmentation. The extent of regenerative effect is reported to be …

Background: Centrifugation is a popular processing method, with an unclear mechanism of
action. Hypotheses include fat concentration, reduced inflammatory response by removal of …

Background: Autogenous fat transfer with lipoinjection for soft-tissue augmentation is a
commonly used technique without a universally accepted approach. The high percentage …
