Fat Transfer
Breast Augmentation

The procedure is based on the harvesting of autologous body fat (liposuction) from body parts where fat is sufficient or excessive. This is then refined and applied into breast tissue. Fat transfer can help even in small breast asymmetries. The method is also suitable for various contour and shape corrections, after breast implant augmentation or breast reconstructions, and after breast surgeries performed for medical reasons.

Advantages

• The biggest advantage of fat grafting is the double effect of the procedure. You will get beautiful and full breasts while at the same time having problematic body parts corrected by liposuction.
• Extremely low incidence of complications is another advantage of fat transfer breast augmentations. This breast augmentation method prevents potential complications related to silicone implants; no foreign material is palpable in the breast.

Drawbacks

• The procedure is rather lengthy (liposuction, fat refinement, fat application). Please note, that the method is not suitable for large breast augmentation (more than one cup-size). The method is not feasible in extremely slim women.
• A sufficient amount of fat is necessary to perform breast augmentation with fat grafting. To increase the volume of a breast we need about 200 ml of fat in average. We fill 400 ml of your cleaned and refined fat to both breasts. To have such quantity of refined fat we need to collect at least double that from your body. You have to expect that some fat is absorbed after the first few months and therefore it is necessary to repeat the procedure after some time. A single session is very rare for this procedure.
• Fat transfer breast augmentation is a new and modern alternative to silicone implant augmentation. However, it is not the first-choice option. The suitability of fat grafting is always considered by the surgeon during a detailed in-person consultation.
