after separation
from superfluous
water by means of
the LipoCollectorR

later transfers?
 Prevoius surgery, scarring
 Weight loss after the transfer

Water Jet Harvest
 Water carries the delicate fat tissue (pulsing
water jet, 30bar, 90ml/min, 300 angle)
 Small openings (0,9mm): tiny parcels of fatty
tissue
 Reduced negative pressure (-0,5bar)
 Gentle movements

Infiltration and
aspiration

Result
01.03.2019 BEAULI-HumanMed 22
Water Jet Harvest
• Residue of 30% fluid
permits easy reinjection
and leads to a uniform
distribution of the fat in the
tissue
• Duration of the
invervention: only 1 ½ - 2 h
Ueberreiter BEAULI Thieme 2010

01.03.2019 BEAULI-HumanMed 23
Water Jet Harvest
 Water Jet Liposuction
yields harvested fat of
consistent quality
(immediatly re-use
without centrifugation)
 Small cell packages
containing adipocytes and
pre-adipocytes are
transferred
01.03.2019 BEAULI-HumanMed 24
No Seperation of Stem Cells

 500ml of fat must be


extracted in addition
 The enzymatic
preparation process
takes 3h
 Additional costs

Yoshimura/Autologous Fat Transfer
Shifmann (Edit) Springer 2010

 Fan shaped  «3D»-Filling


 Several planes  Not overfill (to much
 Rotating the cannula fat kills the fat)
 Strung like pearls  Patient in a upright
450 position

Fat Filling

Leave the breats


soft: to much fat
leads to necrosis!

High pressure

Reduced circulation

For more volume 2 Operations


01.03.2019 BEAULI-HumanMed 36
Postoperative

 Injection site: Plaster Strip


 Circular cotton bandage
around the chest to avoid
local cooling for 3 days
 No bra or a wide nursing bra without any
compression
 Antibiotic for 3 days (Cephalosporin)
 Analgesics (Paracetamol)

01.03.2019 BEAULI-HumanMed 37
Postoperative

No compression!

Keep breasts
warm!

01.03.2019 BEAULI-HumanMed 38
Complications

Large portions of fat


Poor perfusion Necrosis
Pressure
Oil Cysts
With the use of digital
mammography MRI such
changes can be easily Calcifications
distinguished from malignant
changes

01.03.2019 BEAULI-HumanMed 39
Complications

 Haematoma formation
 Infections
 Subcutaneous granulomas

01.03.2019 BEAULI-HumanMed 40
Risk of Developing Breast Cancer

 Cancer originates in the


glands, outside the
subcutaneous adipose tissue
 In current state of data, an
increased risk of cancer
through fat transfer is unlikely
and has not been recorded to
date

01.03.2019 BEAULI-HumanMed 41
Contraindication
 Unrealistic expectations
(great volume, desire
absolute increase of cup size)
 Denial of multiple procedures
 Dislike liposuction
 BMI under 19

01.03.2019 BEAULI-HumanMed 42
Caution

Stay modest: more


seeds on the same
ground do not mean
better harvest:
overfilling  necrosis
overgrafting  loosing fat
