Breast Fat Grafting at Light Plastic Surgery Clinic

Looking for a subtle, natural way to enhance your breast size without implants? Breast fat grafting—also known as autologous fat transfer—is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses your own body fat to enhance breast shape, volume, and symmetry.

At Light Plastic Surgery Clinic in Seoul, we specialize in fat grafting techniques that deliver soft, natural-looking results. This procedure is ideal for women who want a modest boost in breast size, correct asymmetry, or restore volume lost due to aging, weight loss, or pregnancy—all without synthetic implants.


Why Choose Breast Fat Grafting?

Breast fat grafting offers a number of benefits, especially for those seeking a more organic and conservative approach to enhancement:

  • No foreign materials or implants
  • Natural look and feel
  • Dual benefit: fat removal from problem areas (e.g., abdomen, thighs)
  • Minimal scarring and downtime
  • Ideal for correcting small size differences or enhancing cleavage

It’s a popular choice for women who prefer a softer, more subtle transformation—and one that uses their own body tissue.


Customized Approach for Natural Results

At Light Plastic Surgery Clinic, we personalize each fat grafting procedure to match your body type, goals, and expectations. The key to successful results lies in harvesting high-quality fat, purifying it carefully, and injecting it with precision.

Procedure Overview:

  • Fat Harvesting: Liposuction is performed on donor areas such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, or back.
  • Purification: Extracted fat is processed and filtered to isolate healthy fat cells.
  • Injection: The purified fat is strategically injected into the breast tissue to create smooth, even volume.

Our surgeons use micro-fat injection techniques to maximize fat survival, minimize lumpiness, and achieve beautifully contoured results.


Ideal Candidates for Breast Fat Grafting

You may be a good candidate for breast fat grafting if you:

  • Desire a modest increase in breast size (typically up to one cup size)
  • Have enough donor fat available in other areas
  • Want to correct minor asymmetry or volume loss
  • Prefer a natural alternative to implants
  • Are in good general health and have realistic expectations

Patients seeking a dramatic size increase may be better suited for implant-based augmentation or a hybrid approach.


Consultation and Planning

During your consultation at Light Plastic Surgery Clinic, we will thoroughly assess your anatomy, fat distribution, and cosmetic goals to determine whether fat grafting is right for you.

The consultation will include:

  • Evaluation of potential donor sites for liposuction
  • Discussion of desired breast volume and shape
  • 3D simulation or before-and-after photo review
  • Explanation of fat survival rates and realistic expectations
  • A personalized treatment and recovery plan

Our mission is to educate and empower you with all the information you need to make a confident decision.


The Procedure: What to Expect

Breast fat grafting is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the extent of liposuction.

Surgical Steps:

  • Gentle liposuction of fat from selected areas
  • Purification of fat using specialized centrifugation or filtration
  • Injection of micro-fat droplets into the breast tissue, layer by layer
  • Final contouring and inspection to ensure symmetry

The entire procedure takes about 2–4 hours and is performed on an outpatient basis, allowing you to return home the same day.


Recovery and Aftercare

Recovery is generally mild, with the main areas of discomfort being the liposuction sites. Most patients return to light activities within a few days.

Aftercare Instructions:

  • Wear a compression garment over liposuction areas for 2–3 weeks
  • Avoid direct pressure on the breasts (e.g., sleeping on your stomach)
  • Avoid strenuous activities for 2–3 weeks
  • Expect some swelling and bruising, which typically resolve in 1–2 weeks
  • Fat survival stabilizes over 3–6 months, and results become more visible over time

Our staff will monitor your healing and guide you through every phase of your recovery.


Lasting, Organic Enhancement

Breast fat grafting provides soft, natural-feeling enhancement that becomes part of your own tissue. The transferred fat that survives the initial healing period will remain permanently, providing long-lasting results.

While some volume loss is expected (typically 30–40%), touch-up sessions can be performed if further enhancement is desired.
