Many females who have saline or silicone implants are very disappointed with their unnatural breasts.
In the market of cosmetology, aside from rhinoplasty and liposuction, breast augmentation is the most popular plastic surgery among the public. 20 years ago, the technology for autologous fat grafting for breast augmentation as well as the instruments for the examination on the breast were not as advanced as what we have right now. People look more to wards the saline and silicone implants for their breast augmentation.
In these 20 years, problems of using saline and silicone implants have been surfacing gradually. These problems include the capsular contracture, the displacement of prosthesis and the aging and hardening of the implants. Among all, capsular contracture is the most serious problem of saline and silicone implants.
The purpose of breast augmentation does not only lie in hoping the increase in size of the breasts but also in hoping that the expanded breasts can look natural and the touch is as soft as a real breast. Can saline and silicone implants for breast augmentation achieve such ideal results? From clinical research and the documents, the percentage of satisfaction is not high. In terms of looks, indeed through the improvement of the technical skills it can be done but it will be a challenging task to make the breast as soft as the natural ones. The breasts that are made of saline or silicone implants can easily be recognized through touch even by those who barely have any experience.
This situation is without the capsular contracture. If capsular contracture exists, the breasts do not only can be recognized as fake implants through touch but also through the looks. This does not satisfy the basic standards of cosmetic surgery, which is hard to identify which is fake and which is fake. That would be the highest level of cosmetic surgery that people are unable to recognize the parts that were touched or modified.
In recent years, autologous fat grafting for breast augmentation has been welcomed greatly among the public and there are a few reasons to this:
First, the advanced technology of purification of fats and the application of fat stem cells. This can increase the survival rate from 20-30% to 70-80%. Secondly, the improvement of the instruments for breast examination. The advanced of MRI can differentiate effectively between the calcification of fats and breast cancer. Patients do not have to worry anymore about the effect of the calcification of fats on the breast cancer result. Third, there is no worry of getting breast cancer at a high risk. In the past the medical world had been worrying if the growth cofactors in the grafted fat could increase the risk of breast cancer. However, the doubt can officially be resolved as according to a 2011/2012 medical journal, autologous fat grafting for breast augmentation has noting to do with the percentage of getting breast cancer.
Many females who had undergone the saline or silicone implants surgery, had expresswed their disappointment on their expanded but unnatural breast. According to some, they thought that the breast look not-genuine while some claimed that their boyfriend felt that the breasts were fake. Many of them have requested to remove their saline or silicone implants and replace them with autologous grafted fat.

For female who encounter such case, I have a few suggestions.
- The problem of time interval between the removal of implants and the surgery for autologous fat grafting for breast augmentation. Theoretically, after the implants are removed, should the breast rest for a certain amount of time, at least 2 to 3 months, in order to rest before the autologous fat is grafted. You can go for sugery after he removal but it will be better if you rest for 2 to 3 months for your tissues to rebuild before you inject the autologous fat.
- The problem of the volume for the autologous fat grafting for breast augmentation. When the saline or silicone implants are removed, the breast will undergo a drastic shrinkage. Some people will experience the collapse of the whole breasts because the implants had been applying pressure on the breasts for a long time. These situations can limit the volume of fats to be injected. Therefore, if one hopes to recover the size as the implants, a second operation will be necessary. This is what the patients should prepare and expect.
Nonetheless, after they have restored their previous ideal breast size with autologous fat grafting they will realize that the shape of their breasts is much more natural and the touch is softer. Hence they do not need to worry about their boyfriends finding out their breasts are fake because their breasts are like the real ones!
