Advantages and disadvantages of autologous fat breast augmentation

The main advantages of autologous fat breast augmentation are that the material used is the patient's own fat, which eliminates the risk of postoperative rejection, has a high fat cell survival rate, and a relatively low chance of infection, resulting in a higher surgical success rate. However, the disadvantages include the fact that the body naturally absorbs some of the transplanted fat, often requiring multiple procedures. Additionally, the cosmetic outcome of autologous fat breast augmentation is generally not as effective as implant-based augmentation, with less pronounced shape and reduced breast projection.
