Interest in the use of stem cells in aesthetic procedures has been increasing rapidly, reflecting the widespread acknowledgment of the tremendous potential of stem cell fat transfer. This is, however, the first book to be devoted entirely to the subject. The book opens by reviewing the history of the development of pluripotent stem cells and the results of research into the biochemistry and physiology of stem cells. Adipose tissue anatomy and survival are discussed and the wide range of aesthetic procedures involving stem cell fat transfer are then described in detail. These procedures relate to the face, breast, buttocks, legs, hands, penis and Poland syndrome. In addition, potential risks and complications are identified. The book has been written by leading experts and will be an invaluable source of information for students, beginners and experienced surgeons in a range of specialties.

As plastic surgeons, we blend art and science to enhance clinical outcomes. Our artistic sensibilities guide us in achieving aesthetic results, while scientific analysis provides data to predict successful and safe approaches. Despite the abundance of literature on specific body contouring procedures, there is a lack of definitive references that cover the fundamental principles necessary for addressing the complete scope of body contouring, particularly for postbariatric patients with unique deformities. Recognizing this gap, Dr. Shiffman and Dr. Di Giuseppe aimed to support plastic surgeons navigating the complexities of body contouring surgery. This comprehensive text offers multiple perspectives across various sections, including adiposity and lipolysis, the breast, abdomen, chest, buttocks, extremities, and liposuction, featuring contributions from leading authors. Dr. Shiffman and Dr. Di Giuseppe have skillfully edited and compiled these contributions, authoring over a dozen of the 87 chapters themselves. Their expertise is evident throughout the text, resulting in a valuable resource for plastic surgeons looking to enhance their techniques in body contouring.
