Summary

This randomized clinical trial studies and compares 3 techniques in performing autologous fat grafting (AFG) in patients undergoing surgery to reshape or rebuild (reconstruct) a part of the body changed by previous surgery and inserted into another part of the body. AFG, also called fat injections or fat transplant, is a procedure in which an individual's own body fat (usually from abdomen or legs) is used during reconstructive surgery. Doctors want to compare 3 techniques for processing the fat tissue collected during surgery and the length of time needed to complete each AFG technique and surgery. Comparing 3 AFG techniques and the time to complete them during surgery may help doctors determine the best technique to perform fat grafting in the future.
