Background:
Due to their minimal trauma and relative safety, blood products are becoming increasingly popular in medical aesthetics. In recent years, research on the application of blood products has also been increased. This article will summarize the research progress of emerging blood products in plastic surgery in recent years.
Methods:
We searched the PubMed database for literature related to the application of blood preparation in plastic surgery over the past 5 years and summarized them.
Results:
Commonly used in plastic surgery are platelet-rich plasma, platelet-rich fibrin, concentrated growth factor, platelet-poor plasma, and mesenchymal stem cells derived from blood products. They can be used for wound repair and skin and autologous fat transplantation, and can be combined with laser therapy and facial rejuvenation.
Conclusions:
Understanding the application pathways of blood products in plastic surgery and their respective advantages and disadvantages can help us better choose and use them.
