Fat Grafting for Treatment of Facial Scars
Autologous fat grafting has become more and more popular among plastic surgeons in the last few years due to recent discoveries on the mesenchymal stem cells stored in the harvested…
Fat Grafting for Pan-Facial Contouring in Asians
In Asia, young patients undergo pan-facial fat injection for facial contouring rather than rejuvenation. Although the procedure is widely performed, there is no singular approach that has been shown to…
Fat Grafting for Facial Contouring Using Mechanically Stromal Vascular Fraction–Enriched Lipotransfer
Autologous fat graft has limitations, especially long-term unpredictability of volume maintenance. The mechanical enrichment of fat graft with adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) could guarantee the survival of fat grafts. After…
Fat Grafting for Facial Rejuvenation with Cryopreserved Fat Grafts
Fat grafting to the face for volume augmentation, and skin rejuvenation have become a popular procedure. However, the main obstacles to fat grafting include the unpredictable volume maintenance rate and…
Fat Grafting for Facial Contouring (Nose and Chin)
The concept of microautologous fat transplantation (MAFT), proposed by Lin and colleagues in 2007, emphasized that the volume of each delivered parcel should be less than 0.01 mL to avoid potential…
Fat Grafting for Facial Contouring (Temporal Region and Midface)
In this article the authors introduce a compartment-based fat graft for facial contouring, focusing on the anatomy of temporal region and midface, the 3L3M integrated fat transfer technique, and the…
Fat Grafting for Facial Rejuvenation Using Stromal Vascular Fraction Gel Injection
This study used stromal vascular fraction gel (SVF-gel), a mechanically processed fat-derived product, to treat eye bag and tear trough deformity. SVF-gel is prepared by a process of centrifugation and…
Fat Grafting for Facial Rejuvenation with Nanofat Grafts
Reversing structural changes in aging skin gained potential after the therapeutic use of adipose-derived stem cells was described. Nanofat is a highly concentrated solution of progenitor cells without viable adipocytes….
Fat Grafting for Facial Rejuvenation in Asians
Fat grafting is one of the most prevalent fields in facial rejuvenation at present. The procedures include the evaluation of recipient and donor areas, as well as fat harvesting, processing,…
Fat Grafting for Facial Rejuvenation
The author provides his preferred approach to fat grafting for facial rejuvenation. The preferred donor sites include low abdomen and inner thigh. Fat grafts should be harvested with low negative…
