Vegan Breast Augmentation
Also known as: Fat Grafting, Lipomodelling, Fat Injections, Vegan Boob Job, Fat Transfer Augmentation
This procedure is also known as a vegan ‘boob job’ as it offers a more natural and implant-free breast enhancement. Many women who want to improve their breast shape and volume are discouraged by breast implants as they are not so keen on having foreign material inside their body. Instead, Fat Transfer or ‘Vegan Augmentation Surgery’, involves simply taking fat from one part of the body and transferring it to the breasts for a natural enhancement.
A ‘Vegan Boob Job’ not only avoids implant-specific risks, it also results in minimal to no scarring.

What To Expect With Vegan Breast Augmentation
Hospital stay: 1 night, Surgery time: 2.5 hours, Anaesthetic: General
We tailor all treatments to the individual patient. Fat will be removed by liposuction and transferred to the breasts. A breast uplift can also be performed at the same time to give the breasts increased perkiness as well as volume. With fat transfer surgery, it is possible to get results that resemble the use of breast implants without using any foreign material. The results are permanent.
Vegan Breast Augmentation Recovery
Full recovery from breast augmentation surgery usually takes around 4-6 weeks.
Pain medication is typically only needed for a few days, and swelling reduces after a few weeks. After the surgery, you will be asked to wear a post-surgical bra and will be given postoperative exercises to optimise results. After 1 week, wounds will be checked and we’ll also meet again after 1, 3 and 6 months. We recommend that patients book a week off work to recover, although the recovery is often slightly quicker than this.
Vegan Breast Augmentation Risks
Through using your own fat as opposed to breast implants, you avoid implant-specific risks such as capsular contracture, rippling, implant visibility, implant infection and the need for implant exchange later on. You may still have some subtle swelling several weeks after the procedure but this should go down after around one month. You will be able to see results immediately, and there will be minimal to no scarring. As fat transfer involves the transfer of your own living fat cells, the degree of the results may vary. This is because not all the fat cells survive. Sometimes further fat transfer operations are required.
