Abstract
Complete breast reconstruction with fat grafting is an appealing technique because it does not add scars or use flaps, is autologous, and has the secondary benefit of liposuction. It is a multiple stage surgery and usually requires balancing of the contralateral breast. After using this technique since 2001, the authors narrowed the indications, the ideal candidate being a patient with small breasts and enough donor sites for up to 4 or 5 lipomodeling sessions. Breast reconstruction with fat grafting alone in total breast reconstruction has very limited indications, because lipomodeling in combination with other autologous reconstruction gives very nice results.
