Breast augmentation techniques are constantly being developed and refined. Nowadays, it is possible and very popular to have a Breast augmentation with autologous fat to be performed. The doctor discusses in advance the site(s) where the fat can be suctioned out. A large amount of anaesthetic fluid is injected through a series of small incisions. The doctor first aspirates fat from the areas where it has accumulated, such as the abdomen or legs. The doctor uses a fine cannula to suction out the fat. This fat is purified and then injected into the breasts by lipofilling.
The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic and you can leave the clinic shortly after the breast augmentation. Unfortunately, this form of breast augmentation cannot be performed on everyone. You must have enough accumulated fat, which can be removed using the Liposuction can be aspirated. During a consultation, the doctor will examine whether this is possible for you.
ADVANTAGES OF BREAST AUGMENTATION WITH LIPOFILLING
One of the biggest advantages of using the body's own fatty tissue for breast augmentation is that the likelihood of rejection is zero. In contrast to the insertion of silicone implants, your body recognises the fatty tissue as its own. Another advantage of the technique is that no incisions are made in the breast area and no scars are left behind. The harvested fat is injected into the breast using a fine syringe. These punctures heal within a few days and are no longer visible later. Another advantageous combination of liposuction and lipofilling is that the areas where the fat is removed improve your body contours.
DISADVANTAGES OF BREAST AUGMENTATION WITH LIPOFILLING
The advantages of combining a Liposuction and Lipofilling There are also some disadvantages. In contrast to the insertion of silicone implants, lipofilling allows a limited volume to be inserted into your breast. In addition, it is necessary that sufficient fatty tissue can be suctioned from another site. The doctor will inform you during the consultation that some of the injected fatty tissue will disappear due to resorption. This is normal. For example, after an injection of 100 cc of adipose tissue, an increase in breast volume of 50 to 60 cc will be achieved. The final result is evaluated 3 months after the procedure. If necessary, the procedure can be repeated to add volume to the breasts.
RECOVERY AND AFTERCARE
Recovery after treatment is good in most cases. Fluid may continue to leak from the wounds for some time, but this is only temporary. You may also experience numbness for a few days. Immediately after the procedure, you will wear elasticated pressure garments. This promotes recovery and ensures that the layers of tissue heal well together. The cosmetic doctor will advise you to wear a seamless sports bra for the first 2 weeks after breast augmentation. This avoids putting too much pressure on the breasts. All stitches are removed 7 to 10 days after the procedure.
It is important to lead a healthy lifestyle and not to smoke. Together with the doctor, the final result will be assessed approximately 3 months after breast augmentation. The swelling from the procedure will no longer be visible and your breasts will feel supple. The injected fat will have remodelled and your breasts will have a natural appearance. The size was discussed before the breast augmentation and this will become visible after some time according to your expectations.
SAFE BREAST AUGMENTATION WITH AUTOLOGOUS FAT
Both liposuction and lipofilling are safe treatments with a low likelihood of side effects. The most common complications are related to the liposuction part. There is a risk of infection and bleeding during liposuction. The treated area may be blue and feel irritated for a few days.
The side effects after the insertion of implants are somewhat greater:
- sore breasts.
- Infections and inflammations.
- Temporary change or disappearance of sensation in the nipples.
- Scarring.
After a breast augmentation with autologous fat, recovery is faster than if you have implants inserted. If you want to have your breasts enlarged but do not want to lose the feeling in your nipples and want a natural result, lipofilling may be a better method for you. Get good advice about all the options beforehand.

If you have a breast augmentation performed without a medical indication, the costs will only be reimbursed to a limited extent. It makes sense to compare different treatment options and prices in advance. The Acura Clinic offers affordable cosmetic treatments. Breast augmentation with autologous fat and the insertion of implants is performed several times a week by the clinic's experienced cosmetic surgeons. Breast augmentation with autologous fat is offered for a basic price, where the fat is liposuctioned from one area.

BREAST AUGMENTATION BY LIPOFILLING - FAQ
There are a number of frequently asked questions about breast augmentation by lipofilling. Of course, you can also ask us these questions by e-mail or telephone. However, we think it makes sense to answer a number of questions in this way.
Am I suitable for breast augmentation with lipofilling?
Not everyone is directly suitable for lipofilling. Lipofilling is carried out using the body's own fat. This fat is harvested from areas such as the hips, thighs, abdomen or ankles and injected into the breasts after filtering. If you have no or too little excess fat, lipofilling is probably not an option in your case. Lipofilling offers limited options and significant breast augmentation is difficult to achieve. Sometimes several treatments are necessary to achieve an optimal result.
Is breast augmentation with body fat safe?
Liposuction and lipofilling are scientifically proven safe treatments. By using the body's own material, there is no possibility of rejection. The breasts feel naturally soft. Please note that every cosmetic procedure has its own risks.
How many treatments do I need?
During a lipofilling treatment, around 300 ml of fat per breast is injected per treatment session. After six months, the result is optimal and can be assessed by the doctor. If desired, a follow-up treatment can be considered. There is a period of at least 6 months between treatments. If you would like to enlarge your breasts by more than one cup size, the use of silicone implants is recommended.
How big are the scars after a breast augmentation with lipofilling?
Both liposuction and the injection of filtered fat into the breasts leave hardly any scars. The injection punctures heal well and the injections are placed in almost invisible areas of the breast. Once the skin has healed, the injection sites are practically invisible.
What are the risks of lipofilling?
Liposuction and lipofilling are safe cosmetic treatments that have been used successfully for years. However, despite thorough preparation, side effects and/or disappointing results can occur. Common side effects of medical treatments include bruising, swelling, infection, poor wound healing, nerve damage, pain, allergic reactions and post-operative bleeding. Specific side effects of lipofilling include asymmetrical results that make additional treatment desirable.
Is it visible that I have removed fat?
By removing fat from areas where it has accumulated, improved contours can become visible. However, significantly less fat is removed during breast augmentation with autologous fat than with conventional liposculpture. The results are not comparable as the aim of the procedure is different.
Is lipofilling performed under anaesthetic?
No, breast augmentation with autologous fat is performed under local anaesthetic. The areas where the fat is suctioned out are numb. Fat is injected into the breasts without anaesthetic. The only thing you will notice about lipofilling are the punctures in the skin. This feeling will disappear immediately.
Can I still breastfeed after breast augmentation with lipofilling?
Yes, although it is often recommended that breast augmentation should only be carried out after a possible desire to have children. It is good to know that over 1/3 of all women who do not have breast augmentation have difficulties breastfeeding after giving birth. This is not always a consequence of breast augmentation.
Is lipofilling safer than breast augmentation with implants?
Lipofilling is a treatment technique in which the body's own fat is used. This makes the treatment relatively safe and rejection is practically non-existent. The extent to which you want to enlarge your breasts will influence the technique used. The current generation of silicone implants is of high quality and not necessarily less safe than lipofilling. It is often a personal decision to opt for a particular technique.
Are the results permanent?
In principle, liposuction and lipofilling achieve permanent results. It takes 3 to 6 months to achieve the maximum result. Due to weight changes, it may be desirable to have a follow-up treatment at a later date. With a healthy lifestyle and sufficient exercise, the results are long-lasting.
How can I prepare for lipofilling?
The most important piece of advice before breast augmentation with body fat is to stop smoking. It affects your overall health and your ability to recover. Non-smokers are much less likely to have poor wound healing and inflammation than smokers. Also, a cosmetic doctor may have given you a modified medication schedule. Stick to this schedule for as long as the doctor instructs. Make sure you arrive at the clinic on time.
Will I be admitted to the clinic?
No, liposuction and lipofilling are performed on an outpatient basis. Depending on the extent of the procedure and the number of body areas to be treated with liposuction, the procedure takes 2 to 4 hours. Once the procedure is complete, you can leave the clinic after a short recovery period. Please make sure that you are picked up by a family member or friend, as it is not possible to drive home alone.
How long does recovery take after the procedure?
You should take it easy for the first few weeks after breast augmentation with autologous fat. You can exercise, but you should avoid strenuous physical activity. From the 3rd week onwards, you should gradually increase your efforts. Depending on your job, the specialist will advise you on how you can resume your daily activities. From 6 weeks after lipofilling, you will be able to carry out most activities as before.
Will the removed fat stay gone forever?
The removed fat cells cannot come back. After liposuction, it is important that you maintain your weight and do not gain too much weight. If you gain weight, other fat cells have the opportunity to fill up and form new fat deposits.
Can I have a breast examination in the future?
Yes, both self-examination and mammography are possible after breast augmentation. Occasionally, a radiologist may have difficulty assessing an X-ray image. In this case, an ultrasound or MRI examination may be more helpful. You can also take part in the population study after breast augmentation with autologous fat.
