Primary Aesthetic Breast Augmentation: Comparative Study Between Breast Implants and Autograft of Adipose Tissue

Overview

The use of autograft of adipose tissue for aesthetic breast augmentation is increasing year after year. According to the latest meta-analysis of 2016, autograft of adipose tissue in augmentation mastoplasty seems to be a promising method with a satisfactory resorption volume and patient and surgeon satisfaction. However, this technique allows for small to moderate breast augmentation and is therefore not suitable for patients wanting a significant increase. Breast prostheses allow a significant increase. Numerous studies have shown an improvement in patient satisfaction and quality of life assessed using the BREAST-Q questionnaire. On the other hand, very few studies have objectively evaluated the satisfaction of patients who have benefited from an autograft of adipose tissue as part of aesthetic breast augmentation. No study has yet compared the satisfaction of patients who have benefited from breast implants or lipofilling. The aim of this study is to compare the satisfaction of patients who have benefited from breast augmentation by prosthesis or by lipofilling using a remote satisfaction interview.
