“Add to your breasts, creating a full, yet natural look”

Breast Lipofilling

ศัลยกรรมเสริมหน้าอกด้วยการฉีดไขมัน

A procedure where surgeons take fat cells from several parts of a patient’s body using liposuction and inject them into the patient’s breast. This enlarges the patient’s breasts, resulting in natural-looking breasts and making them look soft and full without undergoing surgery. This process is harmless since the fats that are being injected into the breasts come from the patient’s body, and it ensures that no lumps are formed, cause inflammation, or lead to capsular contracture caused by silicone implants. Additionally, fat transfer augmentation can be performed several times, so long as the patient’s fats are reserved and available, or for patients who have already undergone surgery but whose silicone implant ridges are noticeable.

Before the procedure, surgeons will determine the amount of fat required for the breast injection and the areas that will receive liposuction, such as the hips, abdomen, thighs, and upper arms. The fat taken from the liposuction is separated to get the pure fat cells. They are then injected into the patient’s breasts to enlarge them. Apart from enlarging breasts, fat in the areas that receive liposuction is also reduced. Upon completion, the patient’s breasts may look unnaturally large, but once the implants start to cure, 40% of the injected fat will be dissolved. If the patient’s fat cell quality is poor, the implant might not work as effectively. Outcomes might vary among individuals.

Who is suitable for fat grafting to the breasts?

  • Individuals with a larger overall body shape but relatively smaller breasts, who have excess fat and want to reduce proportions.
  • Those who desire naturally fuller and larger breasts.
  • Individuals with breast sagging after childbirth.
  • People who want to increase breast size but prefer not to use silicone implants.
  • Those who are older and want to remove silicone implants but still wish to have firm and shapely breasts.
  • Individuals who have been impacted by breast-related diseases, leading to smaller or reshaped breasts.
  • People who want a more natural appearance after breast surgery.

Advantages of Fat Transfer Augmentation

  • Softer breasts with a more natural texture than silicone implants.
  • Safe, with no capsular contracture.
  • Minimal scarring from the liposuction compared to receiving silicone implants.
  • Extremely short recovery period and less downtime.
  • Precise measurements, allowing for a more even and accurate outcome.

Observations about breast fat injections

  • Fat injections may not always meet the desires of those looking for larger breast sizes or a natural look.
  • Breasts augmented with fat injections may experience some sagging around the 6th month.
  • When opting for breast augmentation with silicone, individuals have the flexibility to choose the most suitable shape for their specific breast concerns. Silicone implants come in three different surface types: smooth, textured, and nano. The three common areas for silicone augmentation are around the breasts (upper pole), under the breast crease, and behind the breast gland.

The benefits of breast augmentation with silicone

  • Achieve the desired breast size and shape.
  • Obtain clear and long-lasting results without deformation.
  • Suitable for individuals with little to no natural breast tissue.

Observations about breast augmentation with silicone

  • Imported silicone, if of poor quality, may lead to issues such as silicone ruptures, hardening of the breasts, and deformation.
  • The size of the incision depends on the size of the silicone implant being inserted.
  • Recovery after breast augmentation may take approximately 1 month

Hybrid Breast Augmentation

Hybrid breast augmentation combines both augmentations into one to mitigate the risks and disadvantages that they both have. It combines breast implants and fat transfer to enlarge patients’ breasts to their desired size. This augmentation is perfect for patients who are very skinny or have low breast density since it can achieve the most natural look with a narrow cleavage gap and no visible silicone implants, which are also soft to the touch.

Advantages of Hybrid Breast Augmentation

  • Cup sizes can be augmented multiple times in one operation.
  • Beautiful, firm, and natural outcome.
  • Full upper breasts and soft to the touch.
  • Enhances the implanted silicone implants to have a more natural look.
  • Softer and more natural texture than just silicone implants.

Observations regarding hybrid breast augmentation

  • Some discomfort may occur in the breast and the fat harvesting areas.
  • The injected fat may potentially undergo some reabsorption or reduction in volume.

FAQS

Possibly, as our plastic surgeons use a ‘Touch Up’ technique in which a small amount of fat is injected to see and determine how it holds its shape. The patient then comes back to receive the full injection. This is because if an excess of fat is injected

It depends on how much the injected fat has broken down or dissolved, as well as how well the first injection keeps its shape.

The maximum volume of fat that can be injected into the patient’s breasts is 150 to 200 cc (cubic centimeters); any more than that volume can cause the breasts to become filled with fluids and become more prone to infections.

It depends on the problems and issues being addressed in individual patients. However, the patient can expect more permanent results from getting silicone breast implants.

Yes, but its effectiveness depends on the extent of the sagging and its cause.

Yes, but it depends on the leftover area and the tightness of the skin around that area.

It depends on the amount of fat that is harvested from that area and the technique used to harvest the fat.
