Who is suitable for breast enlargement with own fat?
Overview of indications
Breast enlargement with self-fat is useful if a natural result is desired, implants as foreign bodies are not suitable, a slight increase in volume is desired up to a basket size and sufficient own fat is present for removal, which can be removed with a liposuction.
Psychological and aesthetic aspects
As with any aesthetic intervention, the psychological component plays a role. The intervention should be made out of its own desire and not due to external expectations.
Requirements for a good result
Stable health, non-smoking (at least two to four weeks before and after surgery), sufficient skin quality and complete physical development.
Executing the treatment "Brust enlargement with own fat" in the Bodenseeklinik
The treatment can be carried out under general anaesthesia or local anaesthesia, where the outpatient or stationary procedure is recommended according to the intervention size.
Step 1 – Consulting and medical examination
Before each treatment, detailed advice is provided by specialist physicians for plastic surgery. Here, wishes, requirements, size of the breast of women, risk factors and a realistic target of increasing the breast of women are discussed by fat.
Step 2 – liposuction
The surgery begins with a liposuction on previously defined body regions. Modern, vibration-assisted or water jet-assisted techniques enable the particularly gentle recovery of vital fat cells.
Step 3 – Treatment of the fatty tissue
The filtered fat is filtered, purified and freed from excess liquid. Only the most vital fat cells are used to achieve optimal growth rates.
Step 4 – Breast modeling by enlargement with fat
With finest cannulas, the fatty tissue is converted into injectable fat, which is distributed in microfine portions in the breast of women to achieve a harmonious, stable shape. This method requires highest surgical precision and experience.
anesthesia and duration of breast enlargement with self-fat
The breast enlargement with self-fat takes place in the Bodenseeklinik in the method of general anesthesia. After the procedure, patients usually spend a night stationary for optimal monitoring.

Course of healing
Swellings and light bruises are normal and usually sound within a few weeks. The final result is shown after about three to six months.

About 30 percent of the transplanted fat is degraded from the body. The remaining fat cells remain permanently in this method and adapt to the natural tissue.
Recommendation of the Bodenseeklinik after breast enlargement with own fat
Compression clothes
After liposuction, we recommend to our patients wearing a compression bodice for six weeks to optimally apply the skin to the new contour. Shower can be done after 4 days after the procedure.
Sleeping position and everyday life
In the first week, pure back sleep is recommended. After a week, side sleep is possible again.
Scar care
The tiny puncture sites should be maintained for six months.
Result
The final shape and size of the breasts is only 3 to 6 months after breast enlargement with own fat.
Risks, disadvantages and possible complications
The result of breast enlargement with own fat can be influenced by weight loss or pregnancy. The need for several sessions may be due to the risk of resorption of the fat or the desired volume increase. It is to be expected that about 30% of the injected self-fat is removed from the body, which can make a repetition of the intervention necessary.

The cost of breast enlargement with own fat is usually between 4,000 and 5,000 euros, plus additional costs depending on individual factors.
