Breast Lipofilling Technique

Description:

Preliminary MRI breast were performed for volumetric measurement. Fat harvesting performed by same surgeon using water-assisted liposuction (WAL) and subsequent washing with buffered lactate in a standardized technique. Fat transfer performed using Berlin autologous lipotransplantation technique according to the BEAULI protocol .Patient were followed up monthly and MRI breast were repeated at 1st and 6th months after lipofilling. Clinical assessment and MRI Volumetric measurement performed using OsiriX (v7.0.3, 64 bit, Pixmeo c) software by same radiologist based on predefined operational procedure
