Abstract
Allograft adipose matrix (AAM) offers a novel, off-the-shelf, and readily available natural option in the treatment of facial soft tissue volume and reconstructive deficits. AAM is a natural soft tissue supplement or replacement that can support cushioning and volume correction. A prospective multicenter pilot study evaluated AAM in facial volume restoration. Eleven women (mean age of 55.8 ± 10.9 y) with midface volume deficit were followed up for 24 weeks after AAM treatment in this institutional review board-approved multicenter pilot study. The clinical safety and efficacy of the AAM treatment were evaluated using clinical scales and three-dimensional quantitative facial photography. AAM was safe to address facial volume deficits, with minor site-related adverse events and discomfort that resolved within 2-4 weeks. Observations also revealed facial volume improvements throughout the study with 91% positive responders. At week 24, the subject facial satisfaction scores revealed an 86% increase compared to baseline, along with a statistically significantly improved midface fullness compared to baseline. AAM offers a natural and safe option for midface volume restoration and supports overall satisfaction and volume improvements.
