“…Expansion of the scalp, hairline The tissue expansion induced by the mechanical effect of increasing the volume of tissue expander has been the subject of research by scientists and surgeons since 1957 [6]. The ability of almost unlimited expansion, with all its original features and properties, has long been used in cases of fibrotic scarring of the head and face due to previous surgery, trauma, etc., after the removal of the tumours, where as a result of the occurrence in the hair part of the alopecia, after the excision of the tumours, in the correction of the defects of the cranial cover ( Figure 7) [21][22][23].…”

Currently, plastic surgeons are often challenged to reconstruct extensive and complex tissue defects in various areas of the body. Despite the availability of a variety of operative approaches in practice that are applicable in the long term for the reconstruction of tissue defects, donor and autologous transplants, skin grafts, implants, etc., the result is often not satisfactory. Restrictions of these techniques in restoring and repairing tissue serve as a driving force for the development of new techniques, the development of adipose tissue in tissue engineering. From a didactic point of view, the expansion could be divided into 3 rd groups. The first group consists of physiological expansion, e.g. growth of an individual. The second group includes pathological expansion, i. skin growth over areas of tumours. The third group includes artificial expansion, which was an important part of cosmetic or ethnic adaptations for some tribes. This review article is addresses the application of tissue expansion in various types of tissues, skin, muscles and bones, as well as its localization and its side effects.
