Objective: To analyze the clinical efficacy of augmentation mammoplasty with cell-assisted autologous fat transplantation.
Methods: Thirty-four cases of micromastia patients in our hospital were randomly divided into control group (n = 17) and observation group (n = 17). Breast augmentation with autologous fat transplantation alone and cell-assisted autologous fat transplantation were performed, respectively, compare and observe the therapeutic effect.
Results: Compared with the control group, the effective rate of breast augmentation was higher in the observation group. After six months of treatment, the increase value of chest circumference (CC), Sternal notch-nipple distance (SN-N),distance between nipple and inframammary fold (N-MF) was higher in the observation group, and the uplift value was higher after six months surgery, with statistical significance (p < 0.05). MRI showed higher postoperative fat retention rate, QLQ-30 Quality of life scores showed no significant difference (p > 0.05).

Plastic surgeon in private practice, Guadalajara, México.
Background: Autologous fat grafting in the buttocks has gained great popularity However, one of the main risks is infiltration of fat into the systemic venous system, leading to potential complications such as macroscopic fatty embolism (MAFE), which can be fatal.
Objectives: This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of the LiRi (Linear Retrograde infiltration) for autologous fat grafting in the buttocks, and its evolution over a six-month follow-up period.
Methods: The procedure was performed in 114 patients.

Background: Superficial autologous fat grafting is widely used for facial rejuvenation and regenerative treatments, yet its retention rate remains unpredictable. Enhancing the concentration of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) has been shown to improve graft retention. Mechanical fat processing techniques can reduce fat granules size for superficial injection as well as elevate the concentration of ASCs.

Autologous fat grafting is a widely used technique in plastic and reconstructive surgery, but its efficacy is often limited by the poor survival rate of transplanted adipose tissue. This study aims to enhance the survival of fat grafts by investigating the role of thymosin beta-4 (Tβ4) in facilitating mitochondrial transfer from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) to adipocytes and newly formed blood vessels within the grafts via tunneling nanotubes (TNTs). We demonstrate that Tβ4 upregulates the Rac/F-actin pathway, leading to an increased formation of TNTs and subsequent transfer of mitochondria from ADSCs.
