Contribution

It introduces the use of mesenchymal stem cells derived from fat as a promising approach for skin repair and hair regeneration in tissue engineering.

Findings

Mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into skin tissue and hair follicles.

Fat-derived stem cells are accessible, inexpensive, and effective for regenerative purposes.

Potential applications include treatment of chronic wounds and cosmetic skin rejuvenation.

Abstract

Many people suffering from skin disorders such as chronic wounds, non-healing ulcers, and diabetic ulcers need skin repair and regeneration. Aside from the diseases listed above, the industry needed a skin rejuvenation system and regeneration for cosmetic purposes. The procedure used to deliver pluripotent stem cells to the desired tissue was known as reconstructive medicine. Mesenchymal stem cells are the most fascinating since, when put in the correct setting and stimulated with the proper growth factors, they could choose a pathway to differentiate into the desired tissue. They are also very available, inexpensive, simple to extract, and reproducible. These mesenchymal stem cells are derived from bone marrow, bone, connective tissues, fats, and other tissues. Fat is the ideal reservoir for mesenchymal cells that have recently been identified. Fibrous, collagen fibers and fibroblasts create fat.
