Autologous fat injection has been widely used during the past 20 years to correct contour anomalies. We have been using suction-assisted lipectomy for the past 13 years, and we have used the aspirated fat to correct contour irregularities on several occasions. We present the case of a 44-year-old woman who, after autologous fat transplantation to correct a contour anomaly (depression secondary ...

We presented 2 cases of lipogranuloma of the cheek following autologous fat injection. Facial autologous fat injection for soft tissue augmentation is a frequently used technique in the field of plastic surgery. Although this procedure was thought to be a safe procedure without foreign body reactions, there had been several case reports on lipogranuloma following autologous fat injection, espec...

PURPOSE To investigate periorbital lipogranuloma cases that developed after autologous fat injection and to determine various treatment outcomes from these cases. METHODS This retrospective study involved 27 patients who presented with periocular mass (final diagnosis of lipogranuloma) and had history of facial autologous fat injection. The collected data included information on patient sex, ...

The 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MC) concentration following intraperitoneal ad ministration was determined spectrophotofluorometrically in benzene extracts of the mammary fat pads and interscapular fat pads of female mice. The following consistent relationship in 3-MC concentration existed when varying dosages of the carcinogen were given in sesame oil: fourth mammary fat pad < third mammary fat pa...

In this study, four different biodiesel fuels obtained from corn oil, safflower-rapeseed oil mixture (50%-50% v/v), waste chicken fat, and fleshing were tested in a six-cylinder, water-cooled, TDI diesel engine. Vegetable animal fat origin fuels’ effects on the performance, injection, combustion emission characteristics of test engine compared with each other petroleum-based fuel as reference f...

BACKGROUND The survival rate of grafted fat is difficult to predict, and repeated procedures are frequently required. In this study, the effects of the freezing period of harvested adipose tissue and the addition of human adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASCs) on the process of fat absorption were studied. METHODS Adipose tissue was obtained from patients who underwent a lipoaspirated fat g...
