When is the best time to undergo breast lipofilling?
AtLiposuccion HDParis, we know that the breasts hold a very special place in a woman’s life; they are a symbol not only of femininity and allure, but also of motherhood. The breasts are at the heart of the female figure and contribute greatly to the body’s overall harmony.
After pregnancy or weight fluctuations, breasts may appear “hollow” and “sagging.” Not all women who wish to improve the appearance of their breasts want to have implants; some of them are at the
The search for more “natural” methods without the drawbacks associated with breast implants. New fat transfer techniques make it possible to remove fat from one or more areas of the body and, after purification, transfer it to another location.
Lipofilling restores the breasts' natural contour and shape using your own fat. It can also be used to correct breast asymmetry and breast hypoplasia, increase buttock volume, or rejuvenate the face.
This technique is suitable for people with a good fat reserve and is not intended for very thin patients.
Pre-procedure consultations
During the two consultations scheduled for this purpose, you will discuss your wishes and expectations with your surgeon, which will help define your plan in detail. Your breasts will be analyzed and examined to determine the surgical technique that best suits your body type and your expectations. Before surgery, it is necessary to undergo imaging tests (ultrasound, mammogram, and MRI if needed) to ensure there is no risk to the mammary gland.
We'll take plenty of photos and provide you with a simulation of the results we're aiming for so you can visualize the final outcome.
We will also assess skin quality, wound healing, and the extent of sun exposure, given their potential impact on the procedure and its aftereffects.
We will work together to determine the areas to be treated and the amount of fat to be injected and liposuctioned.
The Breast Lipofilling Procedure
On the day of the procedure, the surgeon will make precise markings on your chest and the areas to be treated with liposuction to guide him throughout the surgery. This will give you the opportunity to ask him any final questions you may have about the procedure. The medical team (anesthesiologist) and support staff will then take charge of you and accompany you to the operating room.
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and lasts 1½ to 2 hours.
After anesthesia, small incisions measuring a few millimeters are made to begin injecting a saline solution containing epinephrine to reduce bleeding and make you more comfortable when you wake up.
The surgeon then guides the ultrasound probe under the skin into the deep and superficial fat layers to liquefy the fat and facilitate its removal, as well as to tighten your skin.
The fat is then suctioned out using a standard cannula in a gentle, non-traumatic manner, since it has been liquefied beforehand.
This results in a significant reduction in swelling, bruising, and bleeding compared to traditional liposuction.
The fat is then purified and separated from the blood and excess fluids, and the surgeon injects the fat into the breasts to restore their attractive shape and harmonious volume.
- You should resume physical activity after 4 weeks and avoid smoking and sun exposure.
- You will see your surgeon several times for follow-up visits.
- You will need to wear a compression garment for 4 to 6 weeks after the procedure.
- The pain may last a few days, but you will have all the prescriptions you need to ensure your comfort.
- The results are permanent and become visible between the third and sixth months.
- Any change in weight will affect the results, so it is up to you to maintain a healthy lifestyle to avoid significant weight fluctuations.
Costs of Breast Augmentation via Lipofilling
Liposuction used to harvest fat for reinjection into the breast can be performed using VASER lipo to achieve better results than with conventional liposuction.
The technologies used are expensive and require special maintenance due to their fragility; this will therefore result in additional costs compared to conventional liposuction.
The cost will also depend on the number of areas you want to have liposuction performed on.
