Lipofilling is a popular technique to treat volume loss in aging patients. The isolated adipose tissue is composed of adipocytes and stromal vascular fraction cells, which include adipose-derived stem cells (ASC). We hypothesize that the patient’s wrinkle severity scale (WSS) and patient’s satisfaction on the global aesthetic improvement scale (GAIS) can be improved after using concentrated lipoaspirate. Fourteen patients (54 years ± 11.09 years) with volume loss in the midface area underwent waterjet-assisted liposuction (Human Med AG, Schwerin, Germany). Fat was centrifuged in an ACP Double Syringe (Arthrex GmbH, Munich, Germany) using Rotofix 32A centrifuge (Andreas Hettich, GmbH & Co.KG, Tuttlingen, Germany). Homogenization was performed using the double syringe and a 1.4 mm female–female luerlock connector. After a second centrifugation, patients received periorbital (PO) and nasolabial (NL) lipografting. ASC count was performed after enzymatical digestion. Vitality of cells was assessed using a resazurin assay. During long-term follow up (12 months, n = 10), we found a high patient’s satisfaction (GAIS 1+/−0.52) and a good improvement of the WSS during short- and long-term follow-up. The ASC count of processed lipoaspirate was 2.1-fold higher than of unprocessed lipoaspirate (p < 0.001). The difference of ASC in sedimented and simply centrifuged lipoaspirate was also significant (p < 0.05). Facial rejuvenation with concentrated fat graft offers good results concerning objective aesthetic outcome and patient’s satisfaction.

AbstractNeurobiology-based interventions for mental diseases and searches for useful biomarkers of treatment response have largely failed. Clinical trials should assess interventions related to environmental and social stressors, with long-term follow-up; social rather than biological endpoints; personalized outcomes; and suitable cluster, adaptive, and n-of-1 designs. Labor, education, financial, and other social/political decisions should be evaluated for their impacts on mental disease.
