Secondary Hybrid Breast Augmentation – 1 Month Postoperative2026.06.12
This patient is a 25-year-old female who previously underwent breast implant augmentation at another clinic.
Although she was satisfied with her breast size, she wished to achieve:
- More upper pole fullness
- Better cleavage definition
- A softer and more natural appearance
She therefore underwent Secondary Hybrid Breast Augmentation at AVAN TOKYO.
Fat was harvested through circumferential arm liposuction and used for breast fat grafting.
The total amount of purified fat harvested was approximately 400cc.
Fat grafting volume:
- Right breast: 140cc
- Left breast: 120cc
Compared with traditional fat transfer breast augmentation, this was a relatively conservative injection volume. However, because breast implants were already providing the primary volume, the purpose of fat grafting was to refine contour and improve softness.
Particular attention was given to areas where fat survival is typically more challenging:
- Décolletage
- Cleavage (midline breast area)
The patient was also highly committed to postoperative nutritional management, including:
- High-protein meals
- Daily soy milk and soy-based foods
- Continued smoking cessation
At 1 month postoperatively, excellent volume retention was observed in the décolletage and cleavage regions, contributing to a smoother and more natural upper breast contour.
Secondary Hybrid Breast Augmentation combines the strengths of both implants and fat grafting.
Breast implants provide reliable volume enhancement, while fat grafting improves shape, softness, and natural aesthetics.
This combination often results in a high level of patient satisfaction while maintaining a natural appearance.
