Breast autologous fat grafting is known as a method of supplementing volume by using one’s own fat without using implants.

It is often of interest to those who want to expect a natural feel and shape.

However, during consultations, some people wonder why there is such a large price difference from one clinic to another.

This is because even for the same procedure, cost differences can arise depending on the equipment used, the process, and the method of fat processing.

In addition, because the stability of the results can vary depending on the survival rate and the fat harvesting method, it is important to look at these factors together.

Reasons for Price Differences in Breast Autologous Fat Grafting The price differences in breast autologous fat grafting can arise from several factors.

First, differences may occur depending on the equipment or technical method used during the fat harvesting process.

The process of removing impurities and refining the fat after harvesting is also an important factor.

If a method is used that minimizes damage to the fat tissue during this process, it can affect the survival rate.

In addition, the procedure time may vary depending on the harvest site and the amount collected.

When these factors are considered together, differences in procedure cost may occur.

Why the Survival Rate Matters One of the important factors in breast autologous fat grafting is the survival rate.

The survival rate refers to the proportion of injected fat that survives and takes hold in the body.

Not all of the fat remains unchanged, and some of it may be naturally absorbed.

In general, a portion of the fat is absorbed, and the remaining fat tissue settles in place, allowing the results to stabilize.

The survival rate may vary depending on individual constitution, the condition of the fat, and the degree of tissue damage.

For this reason, the fat harvesting process and the refining process are often emphasized as important.

Differences by Fat Harvest Site In breast autologous fat grafting, the harvest site can also affect the results.

In general, fat is often harvested from areas with relatively sufficient fat, such as the abdomen or thighs.

Depending on the condition of the fat in the harvest site, the tissue survival rate or the stability of the results may differ.

In addition, if a method is used that minimizes tissue damage during harvesting, it can also affect the later results.

For these reasons, when planning breast autologous fat grafting, it is important not to consider only increasing volume,

but also to check the harvesting process and the survival rate together.
