  Purpose

The hypotheses of this study were that:

  1. HIV lipodystrophy is associated with psychological morbidity relating to body image, anxiety and depression.
  2. Treatment of HIV lipodystrophy using autologous fat transfer, polylactic acid or Bio-alcamid, is associated with an improvement in psychological morbidity and anatomical volume of treated areas.
  3. The DI3D system is a valid and reproducible method of recording and measuring facial 3-D volume.
