Abstract

Burns scars leave a significant impact on patients affecting their physical, social & psychological wellbeing. They are usually complicated by hypertrophy, keloid, contractures & may be associated with pain or itching. Autologous fat is known for its regenerative properties. We present the preliminary results of an ongoing study on application of autologous fat grafting in burn scars conducted between Dec 2015 to Oct 2016 on 8 patients. The preliminary results reveal effectiveness of autologous fat grafting in burn scars.
