Breast augmentation with autologous fat, also known as lipofilling, is an excellent alternative for many women who wish to increase breast size with a natural appearance without resorting to traditional breast augmentation using implants.

In this innovative procedure, the patient’s own fat is harvested through liposuction from another area of the body, such as the abdomen or thighs. The harvested fat is then injected and sculpted into the breasts to increase volume and address any existing asymmetries.

Compared to breast augmentation with implants, this specific procedure generally results in a smaller increase in breast volume. However, lipofilling offers several advantages over traditional implant-based breast augmentation:

• Since only the patient’s own fat tissue is used and no foreign material like breast implants is involved, the risk of capsular contracture or rejection is eliminated.
• The end result appears very natural due to the modeling and implantation of the patient’s own fat.
• The incisions required for liposuction and fat transfer are smaller, resulting in less scarring and a shorter overall recovery time.
• The preceding liposuction can contribute to a more harmonious body contour.

Whether breast augmentation with autologous fat is a suitable alternative for you compared to traditional breast augmentation with implants, as well as the expected results, will be discussed during a thorough consultation where the most optimal method for you will be determined.
