title: Tissue engineering of skin and soft tissue augmentation, medical view.
abstract: Tissue engineering is one application of the regenerative medicine, which aims to promote replace, repair or regeneration of tissue or organ due to congenital abnormalities, disease, trauma, or aging. This field applies the principles of physical sciences, engineering, medicine and the life sciences. To integrate knowledge of stem cell biology, tissue scaffold biocompatibility and degradation, bioreactor on cell growth and differentiation may overcome some limitation of autologous tissue grafting, allogenic tissue rejection. Tissue engineering is really a new hope for future medicine.
