Description
Fat harvested by liposuction is purified and re-injected into the breast. A gain of 1 to 2 cup sizes is realistic. Repeated sessions can progressively increase the result.

Breast Fat Grafting (Lipofilling)
Breast lipofilling naturally increases breast volume by one to two cup sizes through autologous fat transfer. Ideal for patients seeking a natural result without implants.
02
Surgical technique
No foreign material, 100% natural result, simultaneous improvement of the donor area. The transferred fat also improves the quality and texture of the breast skin.
03
Recovery
About 60 to 70% of the fat persists permanently. Significant weight changes can affect the result, as fat cells respond to weight fluctuations.

FAQ
Lipofilling allows a gain of 1 to 2 cup sizes, ideal for a natural, moderate result. For a larger increase, implants remain necessary. The two can be combined.
No, modern imaging techniques (mammography, ultrasound, MRI) can perfectly distinguish transferred fat from natural tissue. Follow-up remains the same.
A single session is often enough for a satisfactory result. A second session can optimize the result after 3-6 months if additional volume is desired.
Yes, donor areas allowing 200-400 ml of fat to be harvested are needed. Very slim patients may not be candidates or may need repeated sessions.
Yes, lipofilling does not affect the mammary gland or milk ducts. Breastfeeding remains possible after this procedure.
