Autologous Fat, Dermis, and Fascia Grafting

Iowa rates for HCPCS 15770

This procedure places a graft made from the patient's own fat, dermis (the deeper layer of skin), and fascia — the fibrous tissue that wraps muscles — taken from a donor site elsewhere on the body. The graft is used to rebuild, reinforce, or fill a defect during a reconstructive or repair procedure. Because it comes from the patient's own tissue, it carries less risk of rejection than donor or synthetic material.
