Acellular dermal matrices are commonly used biological materials in plastic surgery for reconstructive purposes, and they have recently been utilized as fillers in breast-conserving surgery to enhance aesthetic results. Adequate knowledge of biomaterials properties, appropriate skills, and adherence to specific recommendations are essential for optimizing outcomes and achieving successful work.
Acellular dermal matrices are biological materials of porcine, bovine, or human origin used as scaffold for reconstructive purpose in plastic surgery; these materials are well-tolerated and safely integrated in host tissues without causing resorption, contracture, and encapsulation thanks to their low antigenicity.Recently, human acellular dermal matrix has been used as a filler in breast-conserving surgery to improve aesthetic results. Adequate knowledge of biomaterials properties, appropriate skill, and careful compliance with some specific recommendations are mandatory in order to optimize outcomes and obtain a work of success.
