A patient wants to know about breast augmentation with the body’s own fat and stem cells:
I have got implants, but I want to get bigger breasts with autologous fat because I have got few to no breast tissue.
If silicone implants are palpable or if you can even see contours through the skin, autologous fat transfer is suitable to achieve a filling or rounding of the breast form without the need to remove the breast implants.
Autologous fat and stem cells also allow – if requested by the patient – a breast reconstruction after implant removal. The result of this procedure looks natural and also feels “real” because it consists entirely of body’s own tissue.
