Acellular dermal matrices come with many names, like regeneration templates, scaffolds and from a variety of sources. They are considered to provide soft tissue thickness and support in selected aesthetic and reconstructive cases.

These questions and a few more. We talk about in this episode of this podcasts for plastic surgeons. Please send your feedback to twitter handle @drmcheema or just DM.
