Background: In 2021, a meta-analysis showed fat graft retention varied from 26 to 83%. In a retrospective study including patients with Parry-Romberg syndrome, the younger age group had higher satisfaction scores (3.8 vs.

There are multiple methods to prepare lipoaspirate for autologous fat transfer; however, graft retention remains unpredictable. The purpose of this study was to compare the cellular and protein composition of adipose grafts and the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) resulting from three common techniques to prepare adipose grafts. Adipose grafts were harvested from healthy donors and processed via three techniques: centrifugation (C), a single-filter (SF) device, and a double-filtration (DF) system.

Background: Currently, cell-assisted lipotransfer (CAL) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) -assisted lipotransfer have been used to overcome the low survival rate of conventional lipotransfer. However, there is still insufficient evidence to determine which technique is the best strategy for autologous fat grafting in breast cosmetic and reconstructive surgery.

Objective: The present study aimed to compare the efficacy of traditional fat transplantation, CAL, and PRP-assisted lipotransfer.

Background: Autologous fat transplantation, widely used in cosmetic and reparative surgery for volumetric enhancements, faces challenges with its inconsistent long-term survival rates. The technique's efficacy, crucial for its development, is hindered by unpredictable outcomes. Enriching fat grafts with adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) shows promise in improving survival efficiency.

Aim: Radiation-induced fibrosis is a recognised consequence of radiotherapy, especially after multiple and prolonged dosing regimens. There is no definitive treatment for late-stage radiation-induced fibrosis, although the use of autologous fat transfer has shown promise. However, the exact mechanisms by which this improves radiation-induced fibrosis remain poorly understood.
