Adipose-derived stem cell enrichment is counter-productive for the majority of women seeking primary aesthetic breast augmentation by autologous fat transfer: A systematic review.

Background: Autologous lipotransfer (AL) is a popular method despite unpredictable retention rates. Higher retention rates have been reported when co-administering adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs), a process called cell-assisted lipotransfer (CAL). Our hypothesis is that CAL might indeed limit volume gain in most women seeking aesthetic breast augmentation because it doubles the amount of fat required without consistently improving the outcome.

B-Technique with dermis suspension: A new approach toward reduction mammaplasty combining short-scar with durability of results.

Background: Dermis suspensions (DM) have been introduced in reduction mammaplasties (RM) to extend the durability of the results and improve the quality of the scar. The authors present a new method of RM that consists of completing the B-method of Regnault with a well-vascularized DM.

Objective: Analyze the efficacy of a reduction mammaplasty technique proposed by the authors.
