Objectives: Demonstrate how fat is used in aesthetic breast surgery
Introduction: Fat grafting to the breast has opened up new options and refinements in aesthetic breast surgery as well as solutions to an accumulating group of women who desire implant removal.
Materials / method: Analysis of 165 consecutive patients is presented and fat grafting is demonstrated in patients desiring primary natural breast augmentation, in patients desiring removal of implants, in place of implants in mastopexy/augmentation, in conjunction with implants as a composite technique and in a number of congenital conditions affecting the breast.
Results: Results have overall been excellent with high degrees of patient satisfaction. Complications specifically related to fat grafting have been rare with 2 cases of lipid cysts that required drainage and one case of delayed hematoma following an injury to the breast after fat grafting. There has been no incidence of infection of the fat or implant, and 2 cases of minor wound drainage that cleared with local wound care and oral antibiotics.
Conclusion: Fat grafting to the breasts is a great option for many patients desiring breast enhancement as well as those needing secondary management. Indeed, fat makes breast more beautiful.
