is a well-established way to increase breast size and shape. At Centre for Surgery, your surgeon plans the procedure around your goals, your anatomy, and the look you want to achieve.
Implants give an immediate change in size and shape. Modern come in different shapes and profiles — with careful planning and technique, your surgeon can aim for a result that looks and feels natural for your body. Implants are designed to last for many years, and breast augmentation is one of the most commonly performed cosmetic with a strong safety record.
As with any implant, there is a small risk of problems such as capsular contracture or implant rupture. Some people also notice temporary or longer-lasting changes in nipple or breast sensation. Many patients keep their implants for longer without issues, but you should plan for the possibility of further surgery in the future.
Fat transfer to the breast, also called autologous fat grafting, uses your own fat to add volume and improve shape. Your surgeon removes fat from an area such as the abdomen, hips, or thighs with liposuction, then carefully injects it into the . It suits people who want a subtle change rather than a dramatic increase.
Because your surgeon uses your own tissue, the breasts often look and feel natural. You get breast enhancement and body contouring from in the donor area, and fat cells that establish a blood supply in the breast tend to stay, giving long-lasting results.

Very slim patients may not have enough donor fat — your surgeon will assess this during the consultation.
Hybrid breast augmentation combines implants with fat transfer. Your surgeon uses an implant to create structure and size, then adds your own fat to refine shape and soften the finish. This approach suits patients who want implant volume with a more natural contour.
Fat placed over and around the implant can soften the result and reduce visible implant edges, especially in slimmer patients. Fat can also add fullness to the upper breast and cleavage area, and the combination gives more control over the final shape. In some patients, hybrid techniques can support different positions and may allow for a smaller implant.
The implant-related risks of capsular contracture, rippling, rupture, and the need for future surgery remain possible. Some transferred fat will not survive and your body will absorb it. Very slim patients may not have enough fat for grafting. As with any procedure, suitability depends on your anatomy, goals, and medical history.
Breast augmentation can be achieved with a range of techniques, each with its distinct benefits and considerations. Whether it’s hybrid augmentation, fat transfer, or traditional breast augmentation with implants, the choice of the method is deeply personal and varies based on individual needs and preferences.
