The Combination Therapy of Nanofat Grafting and Platelet-Rich Plasma Injection Compared With Microfat Grafting and Platelet-Rich Plasma Injection Synergy in Treating Striae Distensae

Striae distensae is caused by the fracture and damage of the elastic fibers and collagen fibers, which is still a difficulty to overcome. Based on the studies demonstrated that platelet-rich plasma(PRP) has positive effect on superficial scar, and nanofat and microfat are effective in treating atrophic scar. So in this clinical trial, the investigators are going to treat striae distensae by using two combination therapies. One is nanofat grafting and PRP injection synergy, and the other one is treated by microfat grafting with PRP injection.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The participants were randomly assigned into two groups. Group A is treated by nanofat grafting once every three months for 2 times combined with PRP injection once a month for 6 times. Group B will be treated by microfat grafting onceevery three months for 2 times combined with PRP injection once a month for 6 times. The participants were asked to come back 1、3、6、9 months after treatment for further follow-up.Before and after the treatment, the striae distensae will be assessed subjectively by satisfaction assessment, and objectively by ultrasound and immunohistochemical analysis.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Immunohistochemical analysis
Time Frame: Change from baseline at 15 months.
The tissue extracted will be taken for immunohistochemical analysis to observe the amount of elastic fiber and collagen fiber,etc. More collagen fiber generated better outcome of the treatments.
Change from baseline at 15 months.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Ultrasound
Time Frame: Change from baseline dermal thickness at 3,6,9,12,15 months of the treatments.
The striae distensae will be assessed by ultrasound in order to observe the change of dermal thickness of striae after the application of nanofat or microfat grafting with PRP injection. if the treatments worked, the dermal thickness will be increased.
Change from baseline dermal thickness at 3,6,9,12,15 months of the treatments.
Ultrasound
Time Frame: Change from baseline width of striae at 3,6,9,12,15 months of the treatments.
The striae distensae will be assessed by ultrasound in order to observe the change of width of striae after the application of nanofat or microfat grafting with PRP injection. Smaller the width better the results.
Change from baseline width of striae at 3,6,9,12,15 months of the treatments.

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Satisfaction assessments of participants: questionnaire
Time Frame: At 15th month.
The participants will fill in a questionnaire about the efficacy of the treatments. Participants will choose one of the following answers 'satisfied, unchanged, not satisfied' as feedback.
At 15th month.
