Chin augmentation with stem cell-assisted fat transfer
Keywords:
augmentation mentoplasty, fat grafting, mother cells.Abstract
Introduction: Chin augmentation is a requested procedure with increasing demand in the specialty of surgery.
Objective: To expose the clinical benefits of augmentation mentoplasty and its permanence by ultrasound, through the report of three cases.
Methods: Surgical treatment was performed with stem cell-assisted lipotransfer technique. An average of 3.85 ml was applied in seven patients with a minimum of 3 ml and a maximum of 5 ml, the accepted limit to improve the projection and preserve aesthetics.
Results: In the cases reported, the assessment was carried out using ultrasound, which indicated the permanence of the graft over time as a soft tissue filler to improve the appearance of the chin in the postoperative period.
Conclusions: Assisted lipotransfer with stem cells derived from adipose tissue offers good, safe and permanent results.
