Brief summary
A post-marketing study evaluating the transplantation of autologous fat augmented with Adipose Derived Regenerative Cells (ADRCs), in patients with functional and cosmetic breast deformities post segmental mastectomy or quadrantectomy (lumpectomy).
Interventions
Autologous fat harvested from the patient is enhanced with ADRCs derived from a portion of the harvested fat and transplanted into the breast(s) that have a volume deficit post lumpectomy. This is a single arm study with no control. All patients receive cell therapy.

Exclusion criteria
* History of autoimmune disorder (e.g., Systemic Lupus Erythematosus \[SLE\]) * History of connective, metabolic or atrophic skin disease * History of keloid scarring * Chronic use (\>7 consecutive days) of anticoagulants (such as aspirin) or NSAIDs within 15 days prior to enrollment * Life expectancy ≤ 2 years * Recurrence or active malignancy requiring radiation or surgical treatment ≤12 months prior to enrollment * Presence of any other known malignancy * Body Mass Index (BMI) \>30 * Plan to undergo weight reduction surgery or foresee any significant weight changes during the study (defined as changes in BMI \>5 compared to baseline * Presence of contraindications to MRI
