Breast Augmentation Surgery
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure designed to enhance breast volume, shape, and overall proportion. At Sunway Medical Centre, Sunway City Kuala Lumpur, breast augmentation is performed by Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons with a personalised approach based on the patient’s body shape, breast anatomy, aesthetic goals, and medical suitability.
There are two available breast augmentation options: Silicone Gel Implants and Fat Grafting. Silicone gel implants may be suitable for patients who want a more noticeable increase in breast volume, enhanced shape, or more defined breast projection. Fat grafting uses the patient’s own fat, commonly taken from areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks, to provide a more subtle and natural-looking enhancement.
The most suitable option will depend on the patient’s existing breast tissue, desired volume, body proportions, skin condition, and surgeon’s assessment. Final treatment plan and cost will be determined after consultation.
What Is Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that aims to increase or restore breast volume and improve breast shape. It may be considered by individuals who want fuller breasts, better body proportion, correction of volume loss, or improved confidence in their overall silhouette.
Breast augmentation can be performed using implants or fat transfer, depending on the patient’s goals and suitability. The procedure should be carefully planned with a qualified Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon to ensure the approach matches the patient’s anatomy, expectations, and safety considerations.
Silicone Gel Implants
Silicone gel implants are commonly used for breast augmentation to enhance volume, projection, and breast shape. The surgeon will recommend an implant plan based on the patient’s body proportions, breast width, skin condition, desired size, and safety considerations.
Silicone gel implants may be suitable for patients who:
- Want a more noticeable increase in breast volume
- Want improved breast projection
- Want enhanced breast shape and fullness
- Have limited natural breast volume
- Prefer a more predictable volume enhancement
Fat Grafting for Breast Augmentation
Fat grafting, also known as fat transfer breast augmentation, uses fat taken from another area of the patient’s body and transfers it to the breasts. This approach may create a more subtle and natural-looking enhancement.
Fat grafting may be suitable for patients who:
- Prefer a modest increase in breast volume
- Want a natural-looking enhancement using their own fat
- Have sufficient donor fat available
- Prefer not to use implants
- Want improvement in breast shape or contour with a softer result
Who May Be Suitable for Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation may be considered by individuals who:
- Want to enhance breast volume
- Want better breast shape or body proportion
- Have naturally smaller breasts
- Have volume loss after pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight change, or ageing
- Have breast asymmetry
- Prefer a more defined breast contour
- Want a personalised surgical plan under medical supervision
Final suitability will depend on consultation, breast examination, body assessment, medical history, expectations, and surgeon recommendation.
Why Consultation Is Important
A breast augmentation consultation helps the surgeon understand the patient’s goals and recommend the most suitable option. During consultation, patients may discuss:
- Silicone gel implants vs fat grafting
- Desired breast size and shape
- Implant type, size, placement, and incision options
- Donor fat availability for fat grafting
- Expected recovery
- Possible risks and limitations
- Long-term follow-up and monitoring

What are silicone gel implants?
Silicone gel implants are medical-grade implants used to increase breast volume, improve shape, and enhance breast projection.
What is fat grafting breast augmentation?
Fat grafting uses the patient’s own fat, usually taken from areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks, and transfers it to the breasts for a more subtle and natural-looking enhancement.
Which option gives a more noticeable volume increase?
Silicone gel implants generally allow for a more noticeable and predictable increase in breast volume.
Which option looks more natural?
Fat grafting may provide a softer and more natural-looking enhancement, but the volume increase is usually more modest compared with implants.
Can fat grafting be done for everyone?
Not always. Fat grafting depends on whether the patient has enough donor fat and whether the expected volume increase matches the patient’s goals.
Is consultation required before breast augmentation?
Yes. Consultation is required to assess breast anatomy, body proportions, medical history, expectations, and suitability for surgery.
Are results the same for every patient?
No. Results vary depending on anatomy, skin condition, breast tissue, surgical technique, implant choice, fat survival, and healing response.
