| Leading Plastic Surgeons Reveal Revolution in Stem Cell Research Has its Roots in Beverly Hills Plastic Surgery |
|
The latest developments in adipose stem cell research were not discovered in a Petri dish or in a lab. Instead this promising revolution in medicine was inspired via unexpected benefits resulting from facial fat grafting, a popular procedure developed and perfected by renowned Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon Dr. Richard Ellenbogen. Stem cell researcher and former student of Dr. Ellenbogen's, Dr. Peter Rubin is now leading the latest developments in this most promising field of medicine. Beverly Hills, CA (PRWEB) July 8, 2008 -- Dr. Richard Ellenbogen is considered the father of fat grafting, but he never dreamed that a procedure he began pioneering in the late 1970's would inspire a whole new revolution in modern stem cell research. Initially developed as a natural filler for patients' faces, facial fat grafting is a technique commonly used by plastic surgeons to replace lost volume, erase facial lines, and highlight facial features using the patient's own fat, or "adipose" tissue harvested via liposuction. |
