Breast Fat Grafting in Korea

“What Is Breast Fat Grafting?”

Breast Fat Grafting is a great surgery to achieve a perfect body contour line. Breast Fat Grafting harvests excess fat tissues from the patient’s own stomach or thigh areas and inserts purified fats into the breasts. This surgery method uses autologous tissues without foreign implants to minimize the potential side effects and to create the most natural result. VIP doctors use a lipo-collector and inject in multiple directions to create a precise and lasting result.

Q & A

Q.    I want to use my own autologous fat tissue to naturally achieve a bigger breast size. However, I am concerned that fat tissue will not last as long as the foreign implants do. How long does the fat graft last?

A.    Normally, it is known that fat absorption could happen up to 50% after fat grafting. However, the result may differ depending on the surgeon’s skill in performing the surgery and the patient’s body condition. If the patient tends to lose weight and fat easily, there is a possibility that this patient will lose more facial volume than other patients after the fat grafting. It is also important that the surgeon not only injects the fats in the superficial dermis area but also into the deeper layer of skin for a lasting result. Nonetheless, the individual surgeon with experience and know-how techniques is key to success in fat grafting.
