Using 3D scanning to check fat grafting for facial defects
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma, Skin clinical trials.
This study uses 3D face scanning to see how well your own fat, taken from another part of your body, can restore fullness to your face. It might help if you have a sunken or uneven look from a birth defect, injury, or aging.

This study tests a new device that processes your own fat (taken from your body) to use for facial fat grafting, which may help improve facial contours or volume. It is for people who are interested in using their own fat for facial rejuvenation and are willing to avoid other facial cosmetic procedures during the study.
This trial uses your own fat to fill in facial depressions or defects from an injury or surgery. First, fresh fat is used for grafting, and extra fat is frozen to use later if needed.
This trial uses MRI scans to measure how well a patient's own fat stays after breast or chest wall reconstruction. The goal is to improve our understanding of fat transfer procedures.
This study uses ultrasound to measure how much of the facial fat that is transferred during a facelift stays in place over a year. It helps doctors understand the long-term results of the procedure.
This trial compares three methods for moving your own fat into the breast during breast surgery. It may help improve how well fat grafting works and how surgeons choose the best method for you.
This trial compares two methods of using your own fat to improve old burn or accident scars. It tests whether injecting the fat or using a special stamp-like device (microneedling) works better for making scars softer and less noticeable.
