Dermal substitutes require sufficient tissue integration and vascularization to be successfully covered with split-thickness skin grafts. To rapidly achieve this, we provide the proof of principle for a novel vascularization strategy with high translational potential. Nanofat was generated from subcutaneous adipose tissue of green fluorescence protein (GFP) C57BL/6J donor mice and seeded onto small samples (4 mm in diameter) of the clinically approved dermal substitute Integra.

Article Synopsis
  • The appearance of atrophic scars, often caused by infections or inflammation from preoperative procedures, impacts patients' psychological and aesthetic quality.
  • Recent non-surgical techniques, particularly autologous nanofat grafting, have shown promise in improving facial scars, with a study noting minimized scar size, improved color and texture, and absence of pain or itching after treatment.
  • The combination of injectable nanofat with PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) boosts healing due to growth factors and enhances the effectiveness of the treatment through improved circulation and support of stem cells, making it a safe and effective option for scar management.
