Abstract: Objective To evaluate the influence of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on autologous fat grafting breast augmentation surgery.Methods A lot of 40 patients were divided randomly into the treatment group and control group, each group of 20 cases.In the treatment group cases PRP was used in addition to autologous fat grafting.Chest circumference and thickness of subcutaneous fat were measured before and 6 month after operation and 12 months later.The results were compared and the influence of PRP was evaluated after operation.Results Both groups of patients were satisfied with the results.Compared with the control group, patients in the treatment group showed the chest circumference and thickness of subcutaneous fat were significantly increased 12 months after operation.Conclusions The efficacy of PRP is significant in enhancing fat graft, reducing fat absorption in 12 mouths after operation.The fat tissue mixed with PRP is a reliable reconstruction option for the breast augmentation.
