Natural Volume. Personalized Contour. No Implants.
Dr. Karaaltin offers advanced breast augmentation using your own fat tissue, providing a natural, long-lasting alternative to silicone or saline implants. This cutting-edge approach—known as structural fat grafting—uses refined fat harvested from your body to enhance breast volume, improve shape, and restore symmetry, all with minimal incisions and no foreign materials.
Unlike traditional breast implants, fat grafting involves:
This method yields a soft, natural look and feel while offering the additional benefit of body contouring at the donor site.
One surgery typically increases the breasts by about 1 cup size (100–150 cc). Additional volume may require a second procedure.
You may be an excellent candidate for this procedure if:
Because the procedure uses autologous fat, it eliminates the risk of implant-related complications such as capsular contracture or rejection.
Your journey begins with a detailed consultation and physical examination with Dr. Karaaltin. This includes:
Duration: 3 to 5 hours
Donor Areas May Include:
Using fine cannulas, Dr. Karaaltin gently liposuctions fat, purifies it, and injects it in microdroplets throughout the breast tissue. This technique maximizes vascular integration and fat survival while allowing for meticulous breast shaping.
Each pass places small quantities to ensure survival and sculpt a symmetrical result.
Final results begin to stabilize at 4 weeks and are considered complete by 4 months.
Because fat is partially resorbed in the months following surgery, a second session may be recommended for patients seeking larger volume changes.
Fat grafting is a low-risk procedure, but potential complications include:
Important Note: Modern radiologic screening techniques now easily distinguish graft-related changes from suspicious lesions, allowing for accurate and safe mammography follow-up.
Recent studies show that enriching fat grafts with Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF)—also known as stem cell enrichment—increases fat viability and longevity. Dr. Karaaltin can offer this technique as an optional enhancement depending on patient goals and tissue quality.

Breast augmentation surgery is a common part of the Mommy Makeover procedure. Many women who have children, especially those who are breastfeeding, experience a significant decrease in breast volume. This can make beautiful, active women feel self-conscious and self-conscious in clothing or with their partners. Breast augmentation can help restore volume lost after pregnancy or provide a slight lift to the breasts.
Don’t worry if your breasts are asymmetrical, as most patients have some form of breast asymmetry. If you feel your breast asymmetry is causing you to constantly need to support your bra, feeling self-conscious in dresses or swimsuits, or making it difficult to fit into clothes, a breast implant procedure may be the single most effective surgical procedure to correct this. This can be achieved by selecting two different implant sizes. If the degree of asymmetry is severe, combining a breast augmentation procedure with a breast reduction or lift may be necessary.
Some patients suffer from a condition called tuberous breast syndrome, which results in breasts that are too narrow at the base, small, sagging, misshapen, and condor-like. Our plastic surgeons are specially trained to address this type of breast differently, fully treating malformed breasts and creating a rounder, fuller, more feminine appearance through a specialized breast augmentation and lift procedure.
In some cases, the nature of the breast tissue (especially after significant weight loss) becomes an obstacle to the aesthetic outcome of a breast augmentation procedure. Because breast implants are considered a stable and predictable factor in their permanence, deformed breast tissue will increase the unpredictability of the aesthetic outcome. Therefore, reducing the existing breast tissue and replacing the volume with a larger implant will increase predictability and create a reliable long-term breast augmentation outcome.
If you’ve had a mastectomy or lumpectomy due to breast cancer, you may experience breast asymmetry or deformity, causing your clothes or bras to fit uncomfortably and making you feel self-conscious. If you’ve had breast cancer surgery, have recently been diagnosed with breast cancer, or are planning surgery, Dr. Karaaltın is committed to supporting you through this challenging time and helping your body return to its former glory.
Dr. Karaaltın’s mix-match concept provides patients with the highest level of safety in combination procedures.
Patients who have experienced significant weight loss or given birth may require a breast lift or mastopexy with implants to achieve the results they desire. This is often performed as part of a Mommy Makeover, which may include liposuction, a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), vaginal rejuvenation (labiaplasty or vaginoplasty), and/or facial rejuvenation. Breast augmentation can also add curves, complemented by body contouring and a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) procedure.
