Summary for Patent: 11,724,036

Title:	Syringe for processing fat grafts and related methods
Abstract:	A syringe for withdrawing an aspirate from a body for micro fat grafting is provided. The syringe includes a barrel having an inner wall extending therein. The inner wall has one or more apertures formed therein allowing the aspirate to contact an absorbent positioned between the inner wall and an outer wall of the barrel. A plunger moves longitudinally within the barrel along the inner wall and has a gasket attached to a proximal end forming a seal against the inner wall. The absorbent may take many forms to absorb a non-fat cell portion of the aspirate. A related method includes retracting the plunger from a first position to draw the aspirate from a harvest site of a body into the barrel, exposing the aspirate to the absorbent, and moving the plunger toward the first position so a remaining portion of the aspirate is no longer exposed to the absorbent.
