BREAST AUGMENTATION WITH AUTOLOGOUS FAT

Many women want naturally full breasts without implants. A breast augmentation with autologous fat offers the ideal solution.

This process involves taking fat from another part of your body via liposuction (which, for some people, is a positive side effect). The fat then undergoes a special process during which the fat cells are washed and treated before being precisely injected into the breasts to create the desired fullness and shape.

Breast augmentation with autologous fat has both pros and cons compared to other methods. The process does not require the use of implants, but the number of fat cells that actually grow in the breast cannot be guaranteed. This means that the breasts often become smaller after the healing process is complete, and a further treatment will be necessary if you are still not satisfied with the fullness and shape of your breasts.

We will be happy to discuss the ideal solution for you in a personal consultation.

Many women would like to have larger breasts without having a foreign body (silicone implant) inserted. Here we offer you a good alternative with breast augmentation using your own fat. We use liposuction to remove unwanted fat from an individually defined area of the body. The fat is specially prepared and then injected into the breast.

Questions and answers

Breast augmentation with autologous fat does not involve the use of implants and therefore no foreign bodies. This means that there is only a very small risk of infection after the procedure. In addition, no large incisions need to be made. The autologous fat is injected through very small incisions in the skin (approx. 1.5 mm). This means that healing is faster and there is less pain after the procedure.

How does breast augmentation with autologous fat work?
Breast augmentation with autologous fat involves liposuction of fat from one or more areas of the body. The fat is specially prepared and then injected into the breast.

What is the difference between breast augmentation with autologous fat and implants?
Breast augmentation with implants involves the use of silicone implants, which cause a foreign body reaction so that a capsule can form around the implant. Breast augmentation with autologous fat uses the body's own fatty tissue and the foreign body reaction does not occur.

Breast augmentation with autologous fat is only suitable for non-smokers, as nicotine constricts the blood vessels and the lack of blood circulation impairs the growth of fatty tissue. Furthermore, a sufficient amount of fat must be present for liposuction, so that the method is also not suitable for particularly slim women with a BMI >18. The desire for a significant enlargement of more than 0.5 - 1 cup size is also a limiting factor for this method.

No, the fat is injected via mini incisions of max. 1.5 mm. The wounds are simply glued with fine strips of plaster, so-called steristrips. The remaining scars are barely visible after healing. When planning the mini-incisions, we ensure that they are made in areas that can be easily concealed.

By augmenting the breast with the patient's own body fat, the breast tissue after healing feels identical to the breast before the operation.

In principle, yes. Among other things, the possibility of breast augmentation with autologous fat depends on whether the breasts are very saggy after pregnancy and breastfeeding. The component of the sagging breast may need to be tightened before augmentation with autologous fat. However, a lift can be combined well with breast augmentation with autologous fat.

After breast augmentation with autologous fat, there may be a change in the sensitivity of the breast. A weakening or increase in sensitivity is possible. In most cases, these changes are not permanent and disappear completely after healing.

We offer you a comprehensive consultation with our specialists. The consultation costs CHF 250.00, which will be credited back to you if you decide to have an operation.

The first results are visible immediately. However, it takes approx. 3 - 6 months for the swelling to subside and the fat to heal. The final result can then be assessed. It is normal for some of the injected fat to break down again. As a rule, 50 - 80% of the transplanted fat remains. For this reason, a so-called overcorrection is initially carried out.

At artis, we offer you all options for breast augmentation. The main options are silicone implants or autologous fat. With the so-called hybrid method, we combine the two procedures.

We prefer to remove fat from the abdomen. However, if there is not enough fat on the abdomen or if there is an explicit desire to remove fat from another region, all areas of the body with sufficient fat can be considered.

Approximately 250-350 milliliters of volume can be added to each breast during each procedure. This corresponds to a maximum of 1 cup size. If sufficient fat reserves are available, it is possible to perform a 2nd or 3rd procedure to achieve the desired size.

Immediately after breast augmentation with autologous fat, you should avoid sleeping on your stomach or on your side. Our patients find sleeping on their back most comfortable for the first 1-2 weeks after the procedure. Your body will show you when you can sleep on your stomach or back again.

We dress the wounds so that you can shower again on the day of the operation.

A bra with an underwire should not be worn for at least 6 weeks so that the fat can heal properly and pressure points caused by metal underwires are prevented.

After 4 - 6 weeks, sunbathing and visits to the solarium are possible without any problems. Please ensure that you use effective sun protection.

It usually takes about 3 months for the swelling to heal completely.

Careful sexual intercourse without involving the newly involved breast is possible immediately and according to your needs. However, you and your sexual partner should handle your new breasts with care at first and avoid excessive touching and massaging.
