Official Title: Structural Fat Grafting for Craniofacial Trauma: Effect of Concentrating Endogenous Stromal Cells in the Fat Graft Using the Tissue Genesis Cell Isolation System™ (CIS) Device

Brief Summary: The overall purpose of this research is to evaluate the physical changes that occur over time after fat grafting for craniofacial trauma. This protocol is similar to an existing study (IRB# PRO0906101) presently conducted at the University of Pittsburgh by the same research team which utilizes fat grafts. The preparation of the fat graft material in each clinical trial is processed differently evaluating the effects of graft resorption after treatment.
