March 2024 in “Middle East Fertility Society Journal/Middle East Fertility Society Journal ” In this study, the researchers used dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome exhibit a central fat distribution pattern despite not having increased overall fat compared to controls, suggesting this method's potential utility in diagnosing and monitoring PCOS.
January 2024 in “The Egyptian Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery” In this study, autologous fat injection was found to be more effective than platelet rich plasma in improving post-burn facial scars, as measured by decreased Vancouver scores and increased epidermal thickness among 60 patients.
January 2024 in “Wiadomości Lekarskie” This research discusses the author's findings on methods for harvesting and preparing fat tissue for transplantation, highlighting rare but serious complications reported in animal studies and the use of conditioning devices.
November 2023 in “Journal of cosmetic dermatology” This review article evaluates the effectiveness of autologous fat transplantation in regenerative medicine and rejuvenation, highlighting its biocompatibility and non-immunogenic properties as a facial filler, and notes the variable outcomes based on adipose tissue size.
September 2023 in “Journal of the turkish academy of dermatology” In this study, researchers found that men with androgenetic alopecia had higher obesity-related parameters, such as fat percentage and BMI, compared to healthy controls, but observed no differences in cardiovascular markers like CIMT and EFT.
August 2023 in “Stem Cell Research & Therapy” This study found that cell-free fat extract (CEFFE) enhanced hair growth in mice with androgenetic alopecia by increasing hair follicle density and promoting proliferation while regulating the DHT/AR pathway.
April 2023 in “Plastic Surgery” This study found that autologous fat grafting for facial asymmetry in progressive hemifacial atrophy and linear scleroderma showed similar outcomes regardless of whether performed during the active or stable phase of the disease, suggesting it may be a safe option in the active phase.
