Autologous Fat Transfer for Breast Augmentation: A Review

Abstract: Autologous fat transfer for breast augmentation is not yet standardized. Therefore, outcomes vary widely depending on the surgeon's expertise. The majority of reported complications are of low morbidity, and based on available data, the procedure has a good long-term safety profile. Although there is no evidence that fat grafting increases breast malignancy risk, long-term follow-up is required.

“…With the overall survival rates increasing, more and more patients select breast reconstruction as a way to reduce the disabling effects of the mutilation . Autologous fat graft has been used as a filler for breast reconstruction in breast cancer patients following conservative surgery . That is partly because the ADSCs in adipose tissues (about 10 5 ADSCs per gram adipose tissue) can secrete numerous cytokines to benefit the proliferation and angiogenesis of the graft which make it a better graft than other materials .…”

“…Although initially reported in 1895 by Czerny, liposuction and the method of autologous fat grafting were not used to the breast for augmentation until 1987 (Bircoll, 1987, Bircoll and Novack, 1987). As more evidence is published on the oncologic safety of fat grafting to the breast, more plastic surgeons are now routinely using the method in breast reconstruction surgery (Al Sufyani et al, 2016, Gurunluoglu et al, 2013).…”

“…Previously used as a nonsurgical breast enlargement system, the BRAVA is now particularly helpful in assisting lipofilling augmentation in women who have very small breasts and/or very tight skin envelopes. The device enables a larger volume to be injected on the day of surgery and improves graft survival compared with more traditional lipofilling methods (Al Sufyani et al, 2016). The BRAVA technique achieves this by allowing the space to which fat can be added to enlarge through its vacuum, and it promotes angiogenesis to the existing tissue, which makes graft take more reliable (Al Sufyani et al, 2016, Gurunluoglu et al, 2013).…”

“…Die Hormonbehandlung führte in der Lipofilling-Gruppe zu einer signifikant erhöhten Rezidivrate (1,4 %) verglichen zum Brustaufbau ohne Eigenfett (0,5 %) (p = 0,038). In einer Reihe von weiteren Studien konnte kein Zusammenhang zwischen Lipotransfer und erhöhter Mammakarzinomrezidivrate festgestellt werden, jedoch wird die Nachbeobachtung über einen langen Zeitraum gefordert [43].…”
