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 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…
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…
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…
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…
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 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,…
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…
Injectable tissue replacement and regeneration (ITR 2 ) is a standardized fat grafting technique, which anatomically addresses losses of facial volume, laxity, and sun damage of the skin resulting from…
Facial fat grafting is a small-volume procedure and is primarily performed for facial rejuvenation, contouring, or regenerative surgery. The unsatisfying retention rate after fat grafting, however, led to unpredictable outcomes,…
