INJECTABLE FILLER FROM AUTOLOGOUS DERMIS WITHOUT DONOR SCARRING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18551349 titled 'INJECTABLE FILLER FROM AUTOLOGOUS DERMIS WITHOUT DONOR SCARRING

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a system and method for providing an autologous bio-filler to a patient by harvesting dermal columns, mincing them into microsegments, and injecting them into a recipient site.

  • Harvesting dermal columns from a harvesting site
  • Mincing dermal columns into microsegments
  • Forming microsegments into an autologous bio-filler
  • Injecting the autologous bio-filler into a recipient site of the patient

Potential Applications

This technology could be used in cosmetic procedures, reconstructive surgery, and regenerative medicine.

Problems Solved

This technology provides a natural and personalized solution for soft tissue augmentation, reducing the risk of rejection or adverse reactions.

Benefits

The use of autologous bio-fillers can lead to improved aesthetic outcomes, reduced complications, and increased patient satisfaction.

Potential Commercial Applications

"Autologous Bio-Filler Technology: Revolutionizing Soft Tissue Augmentation"

Possible Prior Art

There are existing methods for soft tissue augmentation using synthetic fillers, but the use of autologous bio-fillers offers a more natural and personalized approach.

Unanswered Questions
