Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Technological innovations in biotechnology and biomaterials have advanced rapidly over the years, which drive innovative solutions for tissue regeneration in plastic and reconstructive surgery. In recent years, regenerative technologies have emerged as a promising approach in the field, offering new possibilities for tissue repair, regeneration, and reconstruction.

Our journal is excited to announce a Special Issue dedicated to exploring the latest advancements in regenerative technologies in plastic and reconstructive surgery. Regenerative technologies offer a unique opportunity to harness the body's own regenerative capacity to repair and regenerate damaged tissues, providing more natural and sustainable solutions for patients. From stem cell therapy and tissue engineering to 3D bioprinting and regenerative medicine, researchers and clinicians are exploring a wide range of regenerative approaches to address complex challenges in plastic and reconstructive surgery.

This Special Issue will feature original research, review articles, and perspectives from leading experts in the field, covering a variety of topics related to regenerative technologies in plastic and reconstructive surgery. We encourage researchers, surgeons, and healthcare professionals to submit their work to this Special Issue. We look forward to exploring novel regenerative strategies and presenting groundbreaking advancements that have the potential to transform the current practices in the field.
