Abstract
Aim of this case report is to assess the role of Autologous Lipoaspirate therapy in prevention of abnormal scarring. Clinical examination of the wound site before and after the use of autologous lipoaspirate therapy was done. In chronic non healing wounds, ALA therapy accelerates the process of wound healing by secondary intention and hastens the wound hed preparation for cover by skin graft/flap.
