Expansion vibration lipofilling: a new technique in large-volume fat transplantation

Del Vecchio, D; Wall, S.
Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery: May 2018 – Volume 141 – Issue 5 – p 639e–649e

portada - PRS - Vol. 132; No. 2 (2013)Despite rapid growth, gluteal fat transplantation is an operation in search of science and a teachable technique. Long operating times, tedious syringe transfers, inability to shape the recipient site, and the risk of fat embolism all headline as impediments to clinical adoption of the procedure. Expansion vibration lipofilling is a syringe-free surgical strategy that is a logical extension of Separation, Aspiration, and Fat Equalization (SAFELipo). In expansion vibration lipofilling, there is simultaneous disruption of recipient-site connective tissue, internal expansion using exploded-tip cannulas, and backfilling of these spaces with roller pump–propelled fat.
