Cosmetic Fat Transplantation Using Expanded ASC Enriched Fat Grafts

Fat Transplantation Enriched With Expanded Adipose-derived Autologous Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in Cosmetic Breast Augmentation and Cosmetic Facial Filling

The purpose of the present study is to examine whether enrichment of a fat graft with autologous ex vivo expanded ASC injected into the breast tissue or face, both for cosmetic use, will significantly improve the results of conventional lipofilling and synthetic facial fillers, thereby being able to offer a safer, more natural and long-lasting alternative to current artificial solutions for cosmetic patients.

The cosmetic breast augmentation design is a double-blind (surgeon and data assessor) randomized, prospective clinical study on healthy subjects.

The cosmetic facial filling design is a data assessor-blinded, randomized, prospective clinical study on healthy subjects.
