Adipose tissue and adipose-derived stem/stromal cells (ASCs) obtained from liposuction
were shown to have potential for regenerative therapeutic use. However, clinical outcomes …

Since 1893, 1 autologous fat transplantation has been used for various applications in
surgery. 2 It was initially used as filler material for simple soft-tissue augmentation, but the …

Background: Recent research indicates that the adipose tissue of nonvascularized grafts is
completely remodeled within 3 months, although origins of next-generation cells are …

Background: Cell-assisted lipotransfer is a process in which fat grafting is supplemented
with autologous adipose-derived stromal cells. Since the efficacy of the technique was …

Background Autologous fat grafting is increasingly used in reconstructive surgery. However,
resorption rates ranging from 25% to 80% have been reported. Therefore, methods to …

With adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) at the forefront of research and potential clinical
applications, it is important that clinicians be able to distinguish them from the fat grafting …

Background: Fat graft volume retention remains highly unpredictable, but addition of
adipose-derived stromal cells to fat grafts has been shown to improve retention. The present …

Background: Fat grafting is promising, but clinical outcomes are not always predictable. The
mechanisms of tissue revascularization/regeneration, and tissue necrosis and subsequent …

Background: Fat grafting is a promising technique for soft-tissue augmentation, although
graft retention is highly unpredictable and factors that affect graft survival have not been well …

Over the past 30 years, there has been a dramatic increase in the use of autologous fat
grafting for soft-tissue augmentation and to improve facial skin quality. Several studies have …
