Abstract
Fat injection has established itself as a useful technique for the management of defects and asymmetries after breast reconstruction [1, 2]. Today, however, fat is considered not just as an autologous “filler” that can correct volumetric defects in various areas of the breast but also as a regenerator of the injected tissues, thanks in part to stromal vascular fraction cells [3, 4]. This regeneration is an important issue in breast surgery due to the damage caused to the tissue by radiotherapy.
