Abstract

A significant advancement in tissue regeneration and repair has occurred with the incorporation of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine into plastic surgery. These domains use cells, biomolecules, and bio scaffolds to create modified treatments that boost immunity and promote tissue regeneration. The application of biomaterials and 3D architecture has made it possible to replicate in vivo tissue structures, thereby improving treatment results. These methods play a major role in plastic surgery procedures related to breast reconstruction, craniofacial repair, and facial reconstruction. Problems like the selection of stem cells and ethical issues still exist, requiring more study and advancement. New technologies that improve surgical planning and allow for customised treatment plans include virtual reality and 3D printing. In order to implement these innovations in clinical practice, thorough testing, regulatory approval, and cost-effectiveness and accessibility considerations are necessary. In conclusion, the integration of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering promises improved patient outcomes and continued innovation in plastic surgery, driving forward the quest for optimal clinical care.
