Abstract

• Atrophic scars are a cosmetically distressing problem for the patients especially post-burn ones as the patient seek for both restoring volume contour and improving the quality of burn scar .
• To date , no gold standard exists for the treatment of scar tissue. Autologous fat grafting has been introduced as a promising treatment option for scar tissue and its related symptoms. However, the scientific evidence for its effectiveness remains unclear .
• Low fat graft survival represents the major obstacle. This is in the form of resorption rates fluctuating from 25% to 80% . Insufficient vascularity of the transplant is usually implicated as the cause. This has led to ongoing research into methods to increase graft viability .
• Microfat has been used for decades as a method to transplant fat. It is harvested through suction cannulas, and processed in different manners to be injected as fat clusters through injection cannulas .
• The aim of this study was to evaluate of the role of autologous microfat grafting in improving the aesthetic outcomes ( quality and cosmetic appearance ) of post-burn atrophic scars and reduction of scar-related symptoms ( pain & itching ) .
