🔸 Una vez se ha extraído la grasa es necesario procesarla y purificarla.
🔸 Por último, se anestesian las moms and, in the same way as in the donor area, small, practically invisible holes are made to insert the cannula and inject the fat.

But the advantages This type of intervention not only focuses on the physical or psychological complexes, but at the surgical level it also has a series of benefits with respect to traditional breast augmentation through implants:
🔹 La principal ventaja es que al utilizar grasa propia y no colocar implantes no se introduce ningún material extraño o artificial en el pecho. Esto permite, al mismo tiempo conseguir un more natural result both visually and tactilely. In addition, the living cells contained in fat generate a large amount of proteins that contribute to greater flexibility and health in the skin.
🔹 Al no colocar implantes se evitan todas las complicaciones derivadas de los mismos como puede ser, por ejemplo, la contractura capsular o el rechazo del implante. De la misma manera no hay que preocuparse por revisar las prótesis o remplazarlas. Y the scars are minor and practically invisible.
🔹Tal y como señalábamos anteriormente esta intervención permite eliminar depósitos de grasa no deseados.
As for the disadvantagesAlthough it is quite uncommon, it is interesting to mention that in some cases after fat grafting there may be uneven reabsorption of fat. Causing an asymmetry in the breasts and making a second graft necessary to equalize them.
