Regenerative Lipo-procurement: Re-engineering liposuction for the regenerative futureTuesday, 23 April 2013 at 16:00 ![]() Adipose derived stem cells (ADSC) represent the most abundant and easily accessible mesenchymal stem cell in the human body. The process of lipo-procurement with respect to regenerative therapy requires additional case-specific tailoring in terms of: 1. final clinical application, 2. pre-existing habitus and 3. patient medical condition. Our long-term rolling 30 year case series performing regenerative lipo-procurement has culminated in novel but practical methods to assure improved ADSC cell yield and minimal hematopoetic and dermal contamination. This lecture and short practicum will focus on intra-operative methods and modifications to standard tumescent liposuction necessary for truly regeno-centric lipo-procurement. An emphasis on patient safety and prevention of aesthetic and medical complications will be detailed and a final suggested best method of practice will be provided. |
