Fat Injection

Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation with fat transfer allows women to subtly enhance breast size by using a natural alternative to breast implants—their own fat cells. Also known as autologous fat graft breast enlargement, fat transfer breast augmentation is a unique procedure that can achieve conservative increases in breast size by collecting fat from one part of the body and transferring it directly to the breast tissue, naturally increasing breast volume. It should be noted that only very small breast size increases can be anticipated with fat transfer.

Benefits

While breast augmentation with saline or silicone breast implants is a safe and effective means of breast enhancement, fat transfer breast augmentation is an alternative to be considered for very select individuals. For women who desire a small increase in breast size (approximately ¼ cup size), who may also have areas of fat excess for which liposuction treatment is being contemplated, fat transfer breast augmentation may be ideal.

• No breast incision
• No breast implant “downsides”
• No need for implant “maintenance”
• Liposuction – as the fat cells used for autologous fat breast augmentation are “harvested” from areas of relative excess including the abdomen and thighs, liposuction is a necessity; these areas can be sculpted and contoured as part of the breast enlargement with fat procedure.

Managing Expectations with Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation

It must be reiterated that only very small increases in breast size can be anticipated with autologous fat transfer. If one’s desire is to achieve breast enlargement of approximately one half cup size or more, breast enlargement with breast implants should be considered.
