Autologous Point-of-Care Adipose Therapy: Delayed Injury/Scar 

STUDY BASICS

Are you planning a scar contracture release and reconstruction surgery with your physician? Are you willing to be assigned by chance to one of two treatments, either a standard of care (SOC) surgery, or an SOC surgery plus a graft of your own fat? You may be eligible for a research study to compare these surgeries.

STUDY PURPOSE

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of a standard of care treatment for full thickness wounds, injury or burns to a novel procedure which adds fat tissue transfer to the standard of care surgery.

COULD THIS STUDY BE RIGHT FOR YOU?

• Are you 18 years of age or older?
• Are planning a scar contracture release and reconstruction surgery with your physician

 

WHAT PARTICIPANTS CAN EXPECT

• Your study participation will last approximately 9 months, after your surgery.
• The study is assessing the effect of a surgical intervention, using your own harvested fat, gathered through liposuction.
