Make an appointmentWhat is breast lipofilling?
Breast lipofilling is an innovative cosmetic surgery technique that offers an alternative to traditional breast augmentation with implants. Instead of using implants, this method relies on the patient’s own autologous fat – fat taken from certain areas of her own body– to naturally increase breast volume. Although this approach does not enjoy the same popularity as implant augmentation, it does offer distinct advantages and may be a solution for some patients who do not wish to undergo implant surgery.
Why choose breast lipofilling?
Breast lipofilling, also known asfat transfer breast augmentation, is a cosmetic surgery procedure that has attracted some interest due to its more natural approach to breast augmentation.
However, it’s important to note that results can vary depending on various factors, including the amount of fat available for transfer and how the patient’s body reacts to the procedure.
One of the main advantages of breast lipofilling is that it uses the patient’s own autologous fat instead of breast implants. This means thatthere isno risk of rejection, even though this type of complication is extremely rare with traditional breast implants.
The benefits of breast lipofilling
- Uses autologous fat, reducing the risk of rejection
- Natural breast augmentation without implants
- For harmonious, personalized results
- Refines the areas where fat is harvested for a sculpted silhouette
- Reduces complications associated with breast implants
- Combines breast augmentation and body contouring
Frequently asked questions
Who is breast lipofilling intended for?
Breast lipofilling is a cosmetic surgery procedure that offers a natural alternative to traditional breast augmentation. However, it is essential to understand that this procedure is not suitable for all women.
You’ll be an ideal candidate for breast lipofilling if you’re looking to moderately increase the volume of their breasts while improving their shape and symmetry. In addition, you should have sufficient fat in other parts of the body, which can be harvested for re-injection into the breasts.
It’s also crucial to have realistic expectations about the results of the procedure. Breast lipofilling offers a natural, moderate increase in breast volume, but cannot provide the same degree of augmentation as breast implants.
How much does lipofilling cost?
At Claris Clinic, we strive to offer our services at the right price, while maintaining the highest standards of quality and safety. The cost of breast lipofilling can vary depending on several factors, including the complexity of the procedure and each patient’s individual needs. We invite you to make an appointment for a consultation, during which we can discuss your goals in detail and draw up a personalized quote.
What are the risks and complications of breast lipofilling?
As with any surgical procedure, breast lipofilling carries certain risks, such as infection, bleeding, blood clots and reactions to anesthesia. Complications specific to breast lipofilling may include insufficient survival of the injected fat cells, which may require additional interventions.
Does breast lipofilling affect breastfeeding?
Breast lipofilling generally does not affect a woman’s ability to breastfeed. However, each case is unique and depends on the technique used, the amount of fat injected and the location of the injections. It is important to discuss your breastfeeding plans with your surgeon before the procedure.
Can breast lipofilling correct breast asymmetry?
Yes, breast lipofilling can be used to correct breast asymmetry. By injecting different amounts of fat into each breast, your surgeon can create a more symmetrical appearance.
Does breast lipofilling leave scars?
Breast lipofilling leaves minimal scars. The incisions made for fat injection are very small and are generally placed in discreet areas to minimize the visibility of scars.
Is breast lipofilling painful?
Any surgical procedure can cause some discomfort. However, pain after breast lipofilling is usually manageable with pain medication prescribed by your surgeon. Most patients report a significant improvement in pain in the days following surgery.
When can I resume sport after breast lipofilling?
It is generally recommended to resume strenuous physical activity around 6 weeks after surgery. However, each patient is unique and the precise timing will depend on your individual recovery rate. It is important to follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.

It takes 3 to 6 months to appreciate the results of breast lipofilling, until your breasts have regained their suppleness and the injected fat has stabilized. Without aiming for perfection, and with realistic desires, we can affirm that the gain in breast volume has an impact on the overall silhouette and therefore allows greater freedom of dress.
