Breast augmentation with autologous fat at PANTEA in Munich
For many women, their breasts play a decisive role in their self-esteem. Particularly when they are perceived as too small or lose shape after pregnancy and weight loss, dissatisfaction often increases.
For smaller breast augmentations, breast augmentation with autologous fat is an alternative to breast augmentation with implants.
For breast augmentation with autologous fat, fat is first removed from a suitable area of the body as part of an "aesthetic liposuction", for example from the hips, abdomen or thighs. The removed fat is then injected evenly and symmetrically around the mammary gland.
A pleasant side effect of breast augmentation with autologous fat is, of course, that "annoying fat pads" are removed during the same procedure.

Why do women opt for breast augmentation with autologous fat?
A very good alternative to breast augmentation with implants is breast augmentation with autologous fat - especially if you want a smaller breast augmentation. This is particularly suitable for patients who do not want to have an implant in their body.
For breast augmentation with autologous fat, we first remove excess fat through aesthetic liposuction from areas such as the hips, abdomen or thighs. This fat is then carefully and symmetrically injected around the mammary gland to create a natural and harmonious breast volume. The resulting small scars, both from the fat removal and from the injection into the breast, are minimal and quickly become inconspicuous.
A pleasant side effect of breast augmentation with autologous fat is, of course, that "annoying fat pads" are removed in the same procedure in areas where you would have liked to have a better contoured body anyway.
We do not recommend and therefore do not offer breast augmentation with autologous fat suctioned from areas affected by lipedema.
Procedure for breast augmentation with autologous fat at PANTEA in Munich
Medical treatment comprises several steps: from diagnosis through to completion of treatment.
1.
The first step is a joint consultation. The doctors at PANTEA® take enough time for you and clarify all your questions. Photo documentation and a physical examination are also carried out.
2.
Depending on the findings, we will work with you to determine an individual treatment plan and discuss all the options for optimally implementing your desired treatment.
3.
Together with our patients, we decide on the most suitable surgical method for breast augmentation with autologous fat during the consultation.
4.
The day before the operation you should drink enough fluids and get enough sleep so that you can have the operation in a healthy and rested state.
5.
On the day of the breast augmentation operation, you should arrive at the clinic on an empty stomach, i.e. you should not eat anything for at least 6 hours before the operation and not drink anything for at least 2 hours before the operation.
6.
After the operation, our patients receive a "post-op kit". This contains useful aids, as well as hints and tips for optimal behavior during the healing phase and afterwards, as well as high-quality nutritional supplements and nutriceuticals to support the healing phase and the sustainable transition to a healthy and balanced diet.
Of course, we are always available to answer our patients' questions after the operation.
7.
We recommend that you take approx. 1 to 2 weeks off after the operation. Aftercare includes wearing compression garments or the abdominal belt day and night for approx. 6 weeks. After 6 to 8 weeks, you may resume light sports activities.
8.
Follow-up appointments are made at fixed times after the operation, depending on the healing process. In addition, appointments can be arranged at any time in the event of uncertainties or questions after the operation.
9.
We take a holistic approach at PANTEA® and are therefore not only there for you before and during the operation, but are of course also at your side after your breast augmentation with autologous fat.

Questions about breast augmentation with autologous fat
Breast augmentation with autologous fat is a good choice for a patient who wants a natural and gentle smaller breast augmentation but refuses an implant.
A prerequisite for this type of breast augmentation is, of course, that suitable fat deposits are present in areas of the body that are to be contoured. For this reason, this method of breast augmentation may not be suitable for very slim patients. However, this needs to be clarified in a personal consultation and discussed in peace.
Breast augmentation with autologous fat is generally suitable for women of all ages. However, as with all other plastic and aesthetic procedures, the patient should be at least 18 years old. We therefore follow the recommendation of the German Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (DGÄPC).
The breast can be enlarged by around half a cup size to a maximum of one cup size in one surgical session. If necessary, the procedure can be repeated several times to further enlarge the breast. If a large breast augmentation is desired, a breast augmentation with implants, possibly supplemented by a breast augmentation with autologous fat, is the more suitable method. By combining autologous fat and implants in a single operation, the autologous fat is used for additional contouring - for example of the décolleté. One of the advantages of breast augmentation with autologous fat is that a change can be seen immediately after the operation. The final result can be seen after three to six months.
Autologous fat has the body's own genetic structure, which is why it is easily accepted by the body. However, experience has shown that the body breaks down around 20 to 30 percent of the injected fat cells in the first three months. After successful healing, the remaining fat cells grow into the blood vessels over time, allowing smaller vessels to sprout into them. The end result is therefore permanent and lasting.
Breast augmentation with autologous fat is associated with relatively low risks and side effects. In rare cases, there may be general surgical risks such as inflammation, wound healing disorders or infections in the breast region.
Minor swelling and, in rare cases, slight bruising may occur in the breast and liposuction area after breast surgery. However, these will disappear on their own within the first few weeks.
In addition, there may be a temporary loss of sensation, but this disappears quite quickly. Pain and feelings of tension can be treated with mild painkillers.
In very rare cases, over- or undercorrection and asymmetry of the breast are possible. However, these rare cases can be corrected afterwards.
In some cases, more than 20-30% of the transplanted autologous fat is broken down again in the first few weeks, meaning that a single operation can only result in a slight permanent increase in breast size. We observe this particularly in patients who follow a diet after the operation.
The PANTEA® private practice works to the highest hygiene and monitoring standards so that you are not exposed to any unnecessary risks. We also guarantee close follow-up examinations to provide you with the best possible support for your recovery.
As a rule, breastfeeding is not affected by breast augmentation with autologous fat.
Lipedema fat cells are abnormal fat cells, which are therefore removed as completely as possible from the affected areas of the body as part of a comprehensive "liposuction for lipedema" to rid the body of the lipedema fat cells.
In our opinion, breast augmentation with autologous fat, which is suctioned from areas affected by lipoedema, is not recommended and is rather counterproductive. For this reason, we do not offer breast augmentation using autologous fat with lipoedema fat cells.
