Abstract
During the period 2008-2013, 11 women were treated with autologous fat grafting for unilateral congenital breast hypoplasia comprising both tuberous breast and micromastia. No correction of the contralateral breast was done at evaluation. Patients were treated median one time, and they had their inter-breast volume difference reduced from median 175 to 50 ml. Patients showed overall high degree of satisfaction with the treatment, but they were less satisfied when addressing size and shape separately. The median follow-up time was 13 months, and the achieved breast volume sustained throughout the follow-up period.
