“…The physiological and clinical behaviour of fat grafts was well studied by Peer (1956) and reviewed by . It should be pointed out that fat autografts vascularize from the fourth day, an inflammatory reaction with macrophages reaches a peak at 2 months and decreases up to 8 months, normal adipose tissue is present 1-2 years later, surrounded by a thick fibrosis but there is no replacement with scar tissue, some fat resorption usually occurs within 1 year and varies from 30-60 % in patients followed up for 1-3 Years in accordance with Peer (1956), Sokolova (1972), Saunders et al (1981), Illouz (1985;), Chajchir et al (1990, Antoine (1990), Horl et al (1991). However, because of this reduced survival, the fat graft was neglected and the method replaced, by the use of silicone and other alloplastic materials, promoted as modern inert implants for recontouring (Kiskadden and McGregor, 1946;Ashley et al, 1965;Pearl et al, 1978;Franz et al, 1988;Nerobyeyev et al, 1990).…”
