Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce a Topic on new insights and recent advancements in Plastic Surgery and Regenerative Medicine—2nd Edition. The topic will cover innovations in plastic reconstructive, aesthetic, and maxillofacial surgery. We encourage all potential authors to contribute to this Topic with papers demonstrating new applications and new findings concerning flaps and autologous grafts, liposuction and body contouring, breast surgery, new facial and body reconstructive and cosmetic procedures, and new strategies based on autologous and/or mini-invasive procedures, in addition to regenerative strategies such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), human follicle stem cells (HFSCs), human adipose tissue-derived follicle stem cells (H-AT-d-FSCs), adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs), micro-needling technique (MN-T) fat grafting, and biomaterials. We also encourage the submission of recent research on oncoplasty, breast reconstruction, microsurgery, composite tissue allotransplantation (face transplantation), lymphatic surgery, genital restoration, and tissue decellularization. Both original articles and comprehensive review papers are welcome. Case reports and case series addressing the above topics will also be considered. With all of our collaborative efforts combined, this volume will strengthen the field and stimulate further research.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

  1. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
  2. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
  3. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
  4. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
  5. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
