PRP and Fat Grafting: Improving Survival and Aesthetic Integration
Fat grafting is a cornerstone of modern plastic surgery, yet graft survival remains a critical challenge. PRP therapy enhances fat graft outcomes by improving vascularization, cellular survival, and tissue integration.
PRP increases angiogenic signaling within transplanted fat, reducing ischemia-related resorption. Growth factors stimulate endothelial cell migration and support adipocyte viability, resulting in higher graft retention rates and smoother contour outcomes.
In facial contouring, breast reconstruction, and body sculpting, PRP-enhanced fat grafting delivers more predictable volume retention and natural aesthetics. Surgeons also report reduced postoperative edema and faster recovery when PRP is incorporated.
Using CE Marked Class IIb PRP systems with platelet concentrations above 4 million ensures biological consistency and compliance with international medical standards. PRP-assisted fat grafting represents an evolution toward biologically optimized plastic surgery.
