Summary
The objective of the clinical investigation is to demonstrate safety and clinical performance of the absorbable polycaprolactone (PCL) breast scaffold combined with autologous fat grafting (AFG) for primary breast augmentation and breast augmentation revision surgery following previous breast implant insertion. The material (PCL) has been in clinical use for many decades and is absorbable. This study follows the successful completion of a 2-year evaluation of the safety and feasibility of this technique performed by the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05437757). The main question it aims to answer is: "Is PCL Breast Scaffold with autologous fat graft a safe and effective method for soft tissue reconstruction following breast implant revision and for primary breast augmentation?". Participants will: * Undergo removal of their existing silicone breast implant (only for participants undergoing breast implant revision, if the implant has not been previously removed), * Receive implantation of a PCL Breast Scaffold combined with autologous fat grafting (AFG), and * Attend follow-up visits at 1 week, 3 months, 6 months, and annually for up to 5 years for clinical assessments and questionnaires.

Interventions
The PCL Breast Scaffold is implanted in a pre-pectoral pocket immediately following removal of the silicone breast implant in participants undergoing breast implant revision. For participants whose implants have been previously removed, or those undergoing primary breast augmentation, a pre-pectoral pocket is created. The use of a submuscular placement may be allowed at discretion of the PI. In conjunction with scaffold implantation, concurrent breast procedures may be performed on a case-by-case basis (e.g., Mastopexy,...). The PI will ensure accurate placement and secure fixation of the scaffold in the desired anatomical position. Autologous fat grafting (AFG) is then performed using fat cells harvested from the abdomen and/or thighs and injected into the implanted scaffold at the time of initial implantation. Then, wound closure and dressing will be conducted as per standard procedure. Sterile bandaging shall be initially applied and the wound reviewed daily whilst an inpatient.
