Composite Breast Reconstruction – Fat and Implants

Tuesday, January 31st, 2012

Another study supporting the use of fat grafting for breast reconstruction has been published in the Journal of Plastic Surgery. This time supporting the use of Implants in combination with fat grafting as I have been doing for my breast augmentation patients and our CleavageAug procedure. The study specifically chooses breast cancer patients  who have had radiation treatments. These patients are known to have a higher risk of complications with implants, such as capsular contacture or breakdown of the tissues over the implant. Doctors at the Catholic University in Rome, treated 16 patients with fat grafting first to improve the quality of the irradiated areas, and then at least 3 months after fat grafting had implants placed. The results demonstrated a good or excellent outcome in more than 90% of patients with no complications and no capsular contracture. We agree with this approach as an option to more complicated flap reconstruction, particularly in irradiated patients. Using an implant may be necessary if the patient does not have enough fat for complete reconstruction, or she wishes to be larger than can be achieved with fat alone.
