Comparison of 3 Techniques of Fat Grafting and Cell-Supplemented Lipotransfer in Athymic Rats

Abstract

Cell-supplemented lipotransfer had optimal outcomes for graft retention, viability, and vascularity, while washing resulted in high viability with a less intensive process. High-speed centrifugation resulted in consistent volume retention but lower viability. Each of these approaches is ideal under different circumstances and contributes to the versatility and reliability of fat grafting.
