Summary

This study is a randomized controlled trial aimed at evaluating the effect of intradermal stromal vascular fraction (SVF) transplantation in treating exhaustion of dermal regenerative capacity during skin expansion. The dermal thickness, texture, and perfusion before and after SVF transplantation would be recorded and analyzed by a series of quantitative devices including laser 3D scanner, ultrasound, VISIA skin analyzer, CK skin analyzer, and indocyanine green angiography.

Conditions

  • Skin Regeneration

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Stromal vascular fraction transplantation

Subcutaneous fat was harvested from either the abdomen or the posterior inner thigh region and then digested with 600 U of collagenase (Shanghai Qiaoyuan Biological Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd, Shanghai, China) at 37°C and 150rpm for three hours. After enzymatic digestion, the lower aqueous phase liquid was aspirated to acquire the stromal vascular fraction (SVF). The SVF cell-pellet was washed and adjusted to 2×10\^6 cells/mL. Lidocaine cream will be applied to the expanded skin to achieve surface anesthesia. The skin was marked with methylene blue and a total of 0.5ml (around 1×10\^6 cells) were transplanted intradermally at the center of each 2cm×2cm squares. The expander was inflated two times a week using constant pressure inflation method, where the intracapsular pressure was monitored using a pressure meter and the inflation was halted when the pressure reached 100 mmHg.

BIOLOGICAL

Normal saline injection

Lidocaine cream will be applied to the expanded skin to achieve surface anesthesia. The skin was marked with methylene blue and a total of 0.5ml 0.9% normal saline were transplanted intradermally at the center of each 2cm×2cm squares. The expander was inflated two times a week using constant pressure inflation method, where the intracapsular pressure was monitored using a pressure meter and the inflation was halted when the pressure reached 100 mmHg.
