Autologous plasma and its supporting role in fat graft survival: A relevant vector to counteract resorption in lipofilling.

Fat grafting has become a widespread technique for different reconstructive and esthetic purposes. However, the disadvantage of fat grafting is the unpredictable resorption rate that often necessitates repetitive procedures, which in turn may have an impact on the morbidity. During the immediate, post-graft, ischemic period, cells survive due to the process of plasmatic imbibition.
