Abstract

Keywords:

A. Autologous fat grafts as part of regenerative plastic surgery yields good results towards post burn scar Maturation, but the outcome is not always predictable.
B. Blunt tipped cannulas are used to create a tunnel at insertion and fat graft to be injected during withdrawal.
C. Clinical and Histological evidence shows increased collagen deposition, neo-vascularization and dermal hyperplasia.
D. Effects are thought to be possibly influenced by a population of stem cells, residing in the stromal vascular fraction of lipo-aspirate tissue, capable of differentiating into multiple tissue types
E. The impact on the therapeutic results, intraoperative extent of correction and the need of numerous transplantations as methods counteracting the postoperative resorption remains unclear
