Abstract: An embodiment of the invention includes methods for the long-term augmentation and/or repair of skin defects (scars, skin laxness, skin thinning, and skin augmentation), cellulite, breast tissue, wounds and burns, urological and gastroesophageal sphincter structures, hernias, periodontal disease and disorders, tendon and ligament tears and baldness, by the injection or direct surgical placement/implantation of autologous cultured cells and/or cultured cell-produced extracellular matrix that is derived from connective tissue, dermis, fascia, lamina propria, stroma, adipose tissue, muscle, tendon, ligament or the hair follicle. The corrective application is done on tissue proximal or within the area of the defect. The method involves retrieving viable cells from the subject, a neonate or human fetus.

Abstract: Materials and methods for treating tissue defects in human or animal tissues using implantable cells are described. Further, culture techniques and factors for enhancing these procedures, and cell survival and adaptation are described. Many of the tissue defects may be treated with autologous cells, while applications involving non-autologous cells or stem cells are also described.

Abstract: Compositions and methods of treating a defect in a patient are disclosed, including expanding a culture of autologous cells in vitro to form cultured cells, collecting the cultured cells for introduction into the patient, and depositing the cultured cells with ancillary proteins.
