| Collagenous microbeads |
Allow ex-vivo proliferation |
Injectable composite system |
Injection micro carrier beads act as minimally invasive implant, stimulating host adipose cells |
| Type 1 collagen scaffolds |
Allow in vivo replacement of damaged tissue |
Scaffold-guided tissue regeneration |
Preadipocytes cultured on bioabsorbable material implant in vivo causing cellular proliferation with scaffold resorption |
| Hyaluronic acid-based spongy scaffolds |
Stable cell carriers generate volume retaining tissue |
Scaffold-guided tissue regeneration |
|
| Omentum |
Highly vascularised tissue of omentum, allows in vivo proliferation |
Fragmented omentum combined with preadipocytes results in tissue high in triacylglycerol level. |

| Injectable poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) spheres |
Non-invasive soft tissue fillers |
Injectable composite system |
Formation of adipose tissue after 8 weeks in vivo. |
