Is it safe to receive hyaluronic acid injections three months after breast augmentation with autologous fat?

Generally speaking, if the recovery is satisfactory three months after autologous fat breast augmentation, hyaluronic acid injections may be considered. However, if the recovery is unsatisfactory after three months, hyaluronic acid injections are generally not recommended. If there is a related need, it is advisable to visit a reputable hospital and perform the procedure under the guidance of a qualified physician. Detailed analysis is as follows:

Autologous fat breast augmentation achieves breast enhancement by extracting fat from other parts of the body and injecting it into the breasts. The usual reference price for autologous fat breast augmentation is 5,000–20,000 yuan per session, with visible improvement typically noticeable within 7–15 days. Hyaluronic acid injections for breast augmentation involve directly injecting hyaluronic acid or other filler materials into the breasts to increase fullness and volume. The usual reference price for hyaluronic acid breast augmentation is 3,000–30,000 yuan per session, with visible improvement typically noticeable within 7–15 days.

If the local recovery is good around three months after autologous fat breast augmentation, without significant infection, inflammation, or poor fat absorption, hyaluronic acid injections may be considered. At this point, hyaluronic acid injections can further improve breast shape, making the breasts fuller and more defined. Hyaluronic acid is a type of filler material that, when injected locally, can shape and enhance the overall contour and appearance of the breasts.

If the recovery after autologous fat breast augmentation is not ideal—for example, if excessive fat absorption, unsatisfactory breast shape, or local inflammation occurs—it is recommended to wait at least six months before considering hyaluronic acid injections. During the recovery period, the breast tissue needs sufficient time to adapt and stabilize. Injecting hyaluronic acid too early may cause significant damage to the breast tissue and affect the results of the autologous fat breast augmentation.

After autologous fat breast augmentation surgery, it is important to properly care for the treated area to avoid infection. Additionally, wearing well-fitting, shaping undergarments is recommended to prevent breast deformation.
