Fat grafting is a useful method for augmenting breast volume for patients who prefer to avoid having an implant or an incision. It can also be used to enhance the results of breast augmentation with implants (the hybrid technique).

However, the amount of augmentation possible does depend on the availability of suitable fat for grafting. The donor areas most commonly used are the tummy, the thighs, and the buttocks.
