Dr. John Anastasatos is a well-respected, board-certified plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills, CA, who recently co-authored the peer-reviewed article titled, “Cell-Assisted Lipotransfer in Breast Augmentation Surgery: Clinical Outcomes and Considerations for Future Research,” which was published on March 2, 2022. Autologous fat transfer is a widely used surgical technique for breast augmentation surgery, but it has been associated with various complications, including post-surgical fat resorption. In the article, Dr. Anastasatos contributes his knowledge on state-of-the-art methods used to harvest, process, optimize and utilize fat for breast augmentation and reconstruction purposes and techniques to optimize fat grafting longevity and increase survival of the fat where it is placed. Dr. Anastasatos’ study explores a novel technique, referred to as cell-assisted lipotransfer, or CAL, and how it has shown promising results in terms of reducing fat resorption. The informative article explores the ways in which cell-assisted lipotransfer is different from the autologous fat transfer, as well as how and why adipose-derived stem cells may contribute towards limiting fat resorption.
