Breast augmentation with autologous fat
The Breast lipofilling It is a cosmetic surgery procedure that allows for natural breast augmentation and reshaping using autologous fat, or adipose tissue harvested from the patient. It is recommended for women who wish to:
- Increase breast volume without implants
- Correct small emptyings
- Improve breast asymmetries
- Reshape your breasts naturally
- Intervene on scarring or post-surgical reconstructions
The treatment offers a dual effect: body contouring through liposuction and breast augmentation without the use of synthetic materials. It's an increasingly popular procedure for those seeking a harmonious and natural result.
The preoperative phase is essential for evaluating the amount of available adipose tissue, the most suitable donor areas (such as the abdomen, hips, or thighs), and the characteristics of the breasts to be treated.
During the specialist visit, the surgeon analyzes body proportions and determines the amount of reimplantable fat, planning a personalized procedure based on the desired result.
- Duration: 1-3 hours
- Anesthesia: general or spinal
- Day surgery: yes (without overnight shelter)
The procedure involves an initial phase of gentle liposuction from selected areas, followed by fat purification using specific techniques. The adipose tissue is then reimplanted into the breast through small cannulas, distributing it evenly to achieve a soft and natural-feeling result.
The postoperative period is generally well tolerated. Expected recovery times vary based on the individual's response. Generally:
- Resumption of light activities: about 7/15 days
- Stabilization of the result: within a few months
Some of the implanted fat may be reabsorbed over time, but the result gradually stabilizes and remains long-lasting.
