Can hyaluronic acid be used for breast enlargement?

Question

I realize this would be very expensive and not last as long and breast implants but could hyaluronic acid injections be used as a filler for breast augmentation?

Dear Steve319Thank you for your question!  There were HA fillers used for breast augmentation in Europe and the UK.  They have not been approved for this use in North America. They have associated problems and last for 1 year.With Warm RegardsTrevor M Born MD

No, fillers can not be used for breast augmentation, but fat transfer can give improvement. Harvesting is important to fat transfer. Yes, I use water-assisted fat harvesting which gives pure fat to transfer and combine with platelet rich plasma (PRP) to get the most viable and sustainable fat cells. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

The procedure called Vampire Breast Lift is a treatment to add volume to the breast close to the cleavage area and PRP and hyaluronic fillers are used to augment the area, it is not a substitute for augmenting the whole breast, for that you may want to try fat transfer.

James R. Koehler, MD · Answer

Hyaluronic acid fillers are not an option for breast enlargement, but if you’re interested in less invasive options than breast implants, you might consult a cosmetic surgeon about the possibility of breast enhancement via fat transfer. Just keep in mind that if you want a more dramatic increase in breast volume or would like to address the position of your breasts (i.e. sagging), a breast augmentation or lift might be a better choice in the long run.
