Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Surgical Techniques

Background:

  • Controlled tissue expansion is a well-established method for increasing skin surface area.
  • Traditional tissue expansion requires multiple stages and prolonged periods.
  • A need exists for more efficient tissue expansion methods for immediate defect closure.
