In short, our device allows a surgeon who is harvesting adipose tissue for
autologous fat transplantation to immediately, easily, efficiently, and
sterilely isolate adipose tissue from the unwanted waste components that are
associated with primary liposuction effluent. It does so by "trapping" the fat
tissue contained within raw liposuction effluent. Once the tissue fraction has
been separated, the device design then allows for direct implantation or
subsequent washing/rinsing of the tissue with saline/buffer of choice in
preparation for tissue reimplantation.
