Breast augmentation with autologous fat in Frankfurt
For harmonious and natural results
Lipofilling
Breast augmentation with autologous fat
Are you looking for a gentle and particularly natural breast augmentation in Frankfurt – without implants? Then treatment with autologous fat (lipofilling) is an excellent option. Many women feel that their breasts are too small, uneven or not harmonious in shape. The desire for an aesthetic change can also arise after pregnancy, weight changes or as part of the natural ageing process. In a breast augmentation with autologous fat, the body’s own fat – for example from the abdomen, hips or thighs – is gently removed, processed and injected into the breast. The result: a particularly natural look and feel.
In our practice, you and your wishes and needs take center stage. With over 10 years of practical experience in plastic and aesthetic surgery, Dr. Abuagela offers his patients in-depth expertise and medical precision at the highest level. Together we develop an individual treatment plan – for a breast that emphasizes your charisma and with which you feel completely comfortable.

Patient experiences
Reasons
Why breast augmentation with autologous fat?
Many women want a natural way to gently enlarge their breasts – without foreign bodies such as implants. Lipofilling combines two advantages: Excess fat is removed from problem areas such as the stomach, hips or thighs and used specifically for breast shaping.
Common reasons for breast augmentation with autologous fat are
- the desire for a natural breast shape without silicone
- a subtle increase in volume for small or slightly asymmetrical breasts
- Changes due to pregnancy, breastfeeding or weight loss
- The combination of liposuction on problem areas and breast augmentation
- the desire for minimal scars and a shortrecovery time
Breast augmentation with autologous fat is also a popular, close-to-body solution for asymmetries or to compensate for minor changes in shape – for a harmonious, authentic result without silicone.
Treatment methods
Breast augmentation options in Frankfurt
Plastic surgery offers various methods to improve the way you feel about your body through breast surgery. In our practice, we offer both breast augmentation with autologous fat and with implants – each method has its own advantages and special features.
Breast augmentation with autologous fat
Breast augmentation with autologous fat
Breast augmentation with autologous fat (lipofilling) is a particularly natural method for gentle volume augmentation. The body’s own fat is harvested from a predetermined problem area such as the abdomen, hips or thighs. This fat is carefully prepared and then injected into the breast tissue using fine cannulas. The special feature: It is 100% the body’s own tissue, which is soft to the touch and produces a very harmonious result.
Many patients appreciate the dual effect of the treatment: the silhouette is contoured in the removed areas, while the breast is shaped in a particularly natural way – without any foreign bodies. The scars are minimal and the recovery time comparatively short. This method is particularly suitable for women who want a moderate increase in volume or to even out slight asymmetries.
Breast augmentation with silicone implants
Breast augmentation with silicone implants
The Breast augmentation with silicone implants remains a proven and popular method – especially when a clearly visible volume or a special shape is desired. Our practice works with modern, high-quality implants in various sizes and shapes. The procedure is performed using the so-called fast recovery technique, which ensures particularly fast and painless healing. The incision is made in the natural underbust crease so that only a very fine, barely visible scar remains later.
How does breast augmentation with autologous fat work?
The preparation
Each of our treatments is preceded by a detailed, transparent consultation. We discuss your wishes and determine the best treatment result for you. For breast augmentation with autologous fat, the first step is to check whether there is enough excess fat. Thanks to our many years of experience, it is also possible to perform breast augmentation with autologous fat on very slim patients. However, this must be evaluated individually during a personal consultation. You should also note that breast augmentation with autologous fat is particularly suitable if the breast is to be enlarged by a maximum of one cup size or if minor irregularities or asymmetries are to be corrected.
Once you have decided on the surgical method, the next step is to make an appointment for the operation. Two weeks before the operation, you should refrain from taking blood-thinning medication, alcohol and nicotine.
The treatment
Breast augmentation can often be performed on an outpatient basis in twilight sleep or under general anesthesia. The operation takes about 2 hours. First, excess fat is suctioned from another area of the body that has been discussed in advance. The thighs or abdomen are often chosen. The extracted fat is then specially processed before being injected into the breast using fine cannulas. Using a special filtration process, we ensure that as many intact fat cells as possible are extracted.
The aftercare
It usually takes around 3 months before the final result is visible. Until then, the volume of the breast will reduce slightly due to the death of some fat cells. Immediately after the procedure, there will be swelling, which can last for several days, sometimes even weeks. You should avoid cooling the affected areas and smoking, as this reduces blood circulation and can have a negative effect on the healing process. You should also avoid hot baths, steam baths and saunas for the first few weeks.
You should wear compression garments in the liposuction area for the next 6 weeks. Avoid tight-fitting clothing, sports bras and underwired bras during the first few weeks. You should not wear a bra for the first 5 days to protect the breasts from unnecessary pressure.
Risks
Risks of breast augmentation with autologous fat
Breast augmentation with autologous fat is generally a low-risk procedure. You are in the best hands with Dr. Abuagela, so you do not have to worry about any serious complications. As with any surgical procedure, bleeding, wound healing problems or infections may occur in rare cases.
