What is breast augmentation with your own fat?
For breast augmentation, we use the fat extracted from the patient to increase breast volume, reducing the risk of rejection or incompatibility.
It is essential to use the correct technique when implanting the fat to ensure its viability and prevent reabsorption, thus maintaining the desired volume long-term.
What does the procedure involve?
Breast augmentation with your own fat involves extracting fat from donor areas such as the abdomen, inner thighs, knees, hips, and chin.
At the Instituto Dra. Ana Torres, we use the advanced BODY-JET liposuction system by Human Med, which allows for more efficient and less invasive fat extraction, reducing the risk of bruising and facilitating a quicker recovery.
The fat is extracted under sterile conditions and prepared for reimplantation without further manipulation. To ensure long-lasting results and minimise fat reabsorption, we use infiltration techniques both intramuscularly and subcutaneously through minimal incisions and microcannulas, allowing better adaptation and vascularisation of the implanted fat tissue.

Frequently asked questions
The best way to determine this is through a consultation with a specialist in plastic, reconstructive, and aesthetic surgery at the Instituto Dra. Ana Torres, where we have the expertise to make the diagnosis and perform the procedure. Keep in mind that you need to have enough body fat for extraction and good skin elasticity for breast augmentation.
For fat extraction and subsequent breast augmentation, we use local anaesthesia, and in some cases, sedation, depending on the patient's physical condition and the recommendations of both the anaesthetist and the specialist at the Instituto Dra. Ana Torres.
The risks of breast augmentation with your own fat include the formation of benign calcifications and oil cysts, which may require additional evaluation. There is no evidence that this procedure increases the risk of breast cancer. Regular mammographic follow-up is recommended after the procedure to monitor any changes, starting with a mammogram at 9-12 months and semi-annual check-ups for two years, following the doctor's advice from the Instituto Dra. Ana Torres.
After breast augmentation, it is essential to follow the care instructions provided by your plastic surgery specialist at the Instituto Dra. Ana Torres to ensure optimal recovery. You will need to wear a compression garment and undergo lymphatic drainage in the donor areas. Additionally, moderate heat should be applied to the treated areas. Physical exercise and sun exposure should be avoided for the first month, and it is important to maintain proper skin hydration.
