Greetings, I am seeking information pros/cons of something called Autologous Breast Augmentation with Microsurgery. I have been unable to find much information/pics about it on the internet about it I understand this is when they do a fat transfer with microsurgery to connect blood vessels (not the liposuction style fat transfer). The pics information I come across has to do with masectomy patients. I recently learned of a woman who had this done as a breast augmenation after weight loss.

Answer: Fat transfer Dear applepop,fat transfer breast augmentation is a viable alternative for women who desire larger breasts without the use of implants. Fat transfer is also widely used in reconstruction of the breast after a mastectomy or lumpectomy. It can also be very effective in correcting the size and shape of the breasts due to genetic problems such as tuberous breast or Poland Syndrome, two conditions that look like misshapen or underdeveloped breasts.In addition, the following scenarios are also reason to consider breast fat grafting:• If you have chest areas that appear creased and sunken• If you desire more permanent correction than is provided by temporary fillers• If you wish to improve your body contour, revise scars, fill bodily depressions and rejuvenate the natural curve of your breasts• To fill in contour irregularities or hide obvious signs of breast implantsYou should discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon and make sure your surgeon understands your concerns and your breast augmentation goals. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Breast Yes, this long and very expensive procedure is used for breast reconstruction and not for cosmetic surgery. I would suggest meeting with a reconstructive breast surgeon to discuss your options. Insurance will not cover this for you.
