Breast Augmentation with Fat Transfer

Many women feel that the size or shape of their breasts does not reflect their true femininity, whether due to naturally smaller size or changes over time, such as pregnancy, weight loss, or aging. At Spirit Plastic Surgery, we offer a natural and safe method for refining breast shape and size through fat transfer, avoiding the need for foreign materials like implants.

While genetics determine breast size, advances in plastic surgery now allow us to use your body’s natural resources to achieve the desired form and size. With the help of the specialists at Spirit Plastic Surgery, women can enhance their confidence while naturally increasing breast volume.

Why Choose Fat Transfer for Breast Augmentation?

Fat transfer for breast augmentation eliminates the need for foreign substances in the body, thereby avoiding potential complications associated with implants, such as capsular contracture or implant rejection. Additionally, using your body’s own fat significantly reduces the risk of allergic reactions. The fat used is familiar to the body, making its integration smooth and harmonious.

This procedure not only provides a natural feel and appearance but also allows for precise sculpting. The fat grafting technique enables us to shape the breasts layer by layer, resulting in a smooth, even outcome without the hardness sometimes associated with implants. Moreover, liposuction during the procedure enhances the shape of donor areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or waist, offering overall body contouring benefits along with breast enhancement.

Benefits of Fat Transfer for Breast Augmentation

At Spirit Plastic Surgery, located at the Újbuda Medical Center, fat transfer breast augmentation is an attractive option for those seeking a natural, safe, and aesthetically high-quality result. We highly recommend this method for individuals looking to avoid the insertion of foreign materials and those desiring a shorter recovery time. Here are the main advantages that make this method increasingly popular:

Natural Appearance and Feel: One of the greatest advantages of fat transfer is that the breasts become fuller while retaining a completely natural look. The shape, texture, and underlying structure of the breasts blend seamlessly with your body.

Two-in-One Benefit: The combination of liposuction and breast augmentation allows for breast enlargement while also improving body contours. Liposuction in areas such as the abdomen, waist, hips, or thighs creates a more aesthetically pleasing silhouette, with the harvested fat used as a natural filler for the breasts.

Minimal Scarring and Quick Recovery: The procedure involves only small incisions in the areas where liposuction is performed, leaving scars that are practically invisible. This significantly reduces the risk of complications and scarring, allowing for quicker and less painful recovery.

No Risk of Capsular Contracture: Unlike implants, fat transfer carries no risk of capsular contracture, a common and uncomfortable complication associated with implant-based breast augmentation.

Better Correction Options: Fat’s flexibility allows for easier correction of minor asymmetries, resulting in a more personalized and aesthetically favorable outcome.

Long-Lasting and Reliable Results: The results of fat grafting are long-term and stable. Most of the transferred fat cells integrate into the breast tissue, maintaining their natural appearance for years. The breasts age naturally with the body, and no future implant replacement is necessary.

Before Breast Surgery

Before any surgical procedure, a detailed consultation is conducted, during which the plastic surgeon evaluates the patient’s needs, expectations, and anatomical features. During this phase, every aspect of the procedure is discussed, including expected outcomes, surgical techniques, and potential risks. We also thoroughly address all questions about fat transfer breast augmentation.

Comprehensive Health Check:
Following the consultation, patients undergo a full medical examination, including laboratory tests, an EKG, and additional diagnostic tests if necessary, such as an abdominal ultrasound and chest X-ray. These examinations are essential for ensuring safety during anesthesia and assessing overall health.

Pre-Surgery Instructions:
Patients are fully informed about pre-surgery preparations, including diet, medication intake, and other necessary precautions. We highlight medications that may affect blood clotting or pose other surgical risks, and adjustments are made to the treatment plan if needed.

The Procedure for Breast Augmentation with Fat Transfer

At Spirit Plastic Surgery, the breast augmentation process with fat transfer consists of two primary steps, performed with the utmost precision and expertise. The entire process typically takes 2-3 hours under general anesthesia, ensuring the patient’s comfort and safety throughout the surgery.

Liposuction:
The first step in the augmentation process is liposuction, where fat is harvested from agreed-upon donor areas, such as the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, or back, using a gentle technique that preserves the integrity and viability of the fat cells. Maintaining the health of the fat cells is critical for successful grafting.

The procedure involves making a small incision, treating the area with a special fat-dissolving solution, and carefully suctioning the fat with a fine cannula. The fat is then centrifuged, purified, and prepared for reinjection.

Fat Injection:
Once the fat is prepared, the viable fat cells are meticulously injected into the breast tissue using a fine cannula. We aim for even distribution across the entire breast to ensure natural shape and volume. It is important not to overfill the area, as fat cells need space and a nourishing environment for successful integration.

Results and Post-Procedure Care

Fat transfer breast augmentation at Spirit Plastic Surgery not only provides a safe and natural solution but also guarantees long-lasting, predictable results.

Visible Results:
Results are typically noticeable within the first few months after surgery. Approximately 60-80% of the transferred fat cells successfully integrate, resulting in permanent volume enhancement. The full effect becomes apparent after four to six months, once the tissues have fully regenerated and any absorption has taken place.

Risks after Breast Surgery:
Like any surgery, fat transfer breast augmentation carries some risks. However, at Spirit Plastic Surgery, we use the most modern techniques and procedures to minimize these risks. Possible complications include edema, hematoma, or, in rare cases, fat embolism, but these are extremely uncommon. Patients spend one night under observation at the clinic to ensure a complication-free recovery.

Imaging:
After the procedure, breast ultrasound and mammography require specialized expertise. At Spirit Plastic Surgery, we ensure that imaging tests are performed accurately and safely to monitor the condition of the fat cells.

Long-Lasting and Natural Results:
The transplanted fat cells remain stable long-term and age naturally with the body. The breasts maintain a natural look and feel, avoiding common issues associated with artificial implants, such as capsular contracture or the sensation of a foreign object.
