Fat Transfer and GID in Aesthetic Aspect of Breast Asymmetry Post Reconstruction

  • Chapter
Breast Reconstruction

  • 200 Accesses

Abstract

Various reconstructive procedures have the common goal of improving the appearance of the breast in order to make it conform to what the patient considers more aesthetically pleasing. Breast secondary asymmetry may be due to the shape, the volume, the position of the implant and the nipple-areola complex. Post-reconstruction breast asymmetry is often associated with dimensional problem, retraction of the peri-prosthetic breast fibrous capsule, persistent mammary ptosis. The authors discuss the use of the GID svf-1, a new device for fat grafting.
