    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Regenerative Medicine

    Background:

    • Liposuction-derived fat grafting is an established technique.
    • Revitalization of fat extraction and transplant methods is ongoing.
    • Understanding fat graft evolution, including reabsorption, is crucial.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present the results of fat grafting using liposuction.
    • To highlight the importance of continuity in successful fat graft treatments.
    • To discuss the role and safety of fat reinjection.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized fat obtained through liposuction for grafting.
    • Employed a revitalized technique for fat extraction and transplant.
    • Monitored fat graft evolution over time, including reabsorption.
    • Performed repeated fat reinjections as needed.

    Main Results:

    • Fat grafts demonstrate evolutionary changes over time.
    • Reabsorption is a normal process in fat graft permanence.
    • Fat reinjection is a viable option following tissue reabsorption.
    • Repeated fat reinjections showed no associated complications.
    • All reported cases involved patients with two or more reinjections.

    Conclusions:

    • Successful fat grafting relies on continuity of treatment.
    • Fat reinjection is a safe and effective method to enhance or maintain graft volume.
    • The technique offers a reliable solution for tissue augmentation with repeated applications.
