ABSTRACT: Background
Although aesthetic treatments can rejuvenate the skin, they often cause specific forms of tissue damage. Unlike wounding, which typically results in fibrotic scar tissue, damage from aesthetic treatments induces a distinct histological rejuvenation. The mechanisms that drive this rejuvenation are not yet fully understood. Here, we were interested in cellular responses following aesthetic treatments injecting adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) subcutaneously. Through investigation with an ex vivo experimental model, a key gene was identified that orchestrates fibrous structural changes and tissue remodeling.Methods
Using fresh human subcutaneous adipose tissue co-cultured with ASCs, the changes in the fibrous architecture of the tissue were sequentially mapped. The
