Tissue Genesis Cell Isolation System™ (TGI CIS)
In this study, we will concentrate the adipose stromal cells (ASCs) in the fat graft material to assess whether this modification will increase fat graft retention over time. The concentrated fat to be injected into the subject from the fat grafting procedure will be processed by the Tissue Genesis Cell Isolation System™ (CIS) device. The volume retention in areas treated with ASC concentrated fat grafts will be compared with regions treated with standard fat grafts in the same patient. Additionally, data from our current study assessing volume retention after fat grafting for facial deformities (IRB # PRO09060101, NCT01345591) will be used for comparison.
