This case shows the 3-month recovery after secondary Hybrid Breast Augmentation performed following a previous silicone breast augmentation at another clinic.
Condensed Rich Fat (CRF) was grafted into both the subcutaneous layer and the pectoralis major muscle:
Case overview
| Procedure | Condense Rich Fat breast augmentation |
|---|---|
| Sessions | 1 session |
| Cost | ¥1,000,000 (price at the time of treatment) Price list |
| Main risks | swelling, bruising, pain, edema, skin irregularities, asymmetry, scars, capsular contracture, rippling, lumps, calcification, etc. (see details below) |
| Doctor | Dr. Shin Moriwaki (Director) |
- Right breast: 210cc
- Left breast: 140cc
The fat placed in the subcutaneous layer was intended to soften and camouflage the implant contour, while the fat injected into the pectoralis major muscle was used to enhance overall breast volume and improve the upper-pole fullness.
By 3 months, a portion of the transferred fat had been naturally absorbed, which is an expected part of the healing process. However, compared with the preoperative appearance, the breasts demonstrate a noticeable improvement in contour and a softer, more natural transition.
Risks and complications: Infection, fat necrosis or palpable lumps, variability in fat graft survival, asymmetry, capsular contracture, skin tethering, scarring, and other potential surgical complications.

Risks and side effects
Liposuction may cause swelling, bruising, pain, edema, skin irregularities or tightness, asymmetry, pigmentation, and scars at the small incision sites. Rarely, complications such as infection, hematoma, numbness, or reduced sensation may occur.
Silicone implants may cause capsular contracture, implant rupture or malposition, rippling (waves of the implant visible on the surface), infection, and changes in nipple or breast sensation.
Fat grafting may cause calcification, lumps or cysts, individual variation in fat survival, asymmetry, and irregularities at the donor site.
These symptoms may occur during recovery and most improve over time, but their severity and the recovery period vary from person to person. If you have any concerns, please consult your doctor rather than judging for yourself.
