The procedure begins with liposuction, often using the FlexSculpt^® technique, to remove unwanted fat from donor areas. The harvested fat is then carefully purified to ensure its viability. Finally, the purified fat is injected into the breasts in small amounts to achieve the desired enhancement.

Yes, Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation is considered safe, especially since it uses your own fat, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or implant-related complications. The procedure is minimally invasive, involving small incisions and less risk of scarring and infection compared to traditional implants.

The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, ensuring you are comfortable and pain-free while awake. Local anesthesia significantly reduces the risks associated with general anesthesia, such as prolonged recovery time and potential complications.

Recovery typically involves some downtime. You can expect swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in both the donor and recipient areas. Most patients can return to light activities within a week, but strenuous activities should be avoided for at least four to six weeks. Our team will provide detailed post-operative care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.

The results of Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation can be long-lasting. However, some of the transferred fat may be reabsorbed by the body over time. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle can help preserve the results. Follow-up appointments with your surgeon are essential to monitor your progress and ensure optimal outcomes.

The incisions made during the liposuction and fat injection processes are very small, resulting in minimal scarring. Our skilled surgeons use advanced techniques to ensure the incisions are discreet and heal well over time. Proper post-operative care will further minimize the appearance of scars.

You may be a good candidate if you have sufficient donor fat and desire a moderate increase in breast size without implants. Ideal candidates are in good health, have realistic expectations, and seek a natural look. A thorough consultation with a board-certified surgeon will help determine if this procedure is right for you.

The amount of fat needed varies depending on the desired increase in breast size and the availability of donor fat. During your consultation, your surgeon will assess your body and discuss your goals to determine the appropriate amount of fat required.

Combining procedures can enhance overall results and achieve a more balanced appearance. Discuss your goals with your surgeon to determine the best combination of treatments for your needs.

Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation offers several advantages over implants, including a more natural look and feel, no risk of implant-related complications, and the added benefit of body contouring from liposuction. Additionally, using your own fat reduces the risk of allergic reactions or rejections.

You should avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting for at least four to six weeks following the procedure. Light activities and gentle exercise can usually be resumed after a week or two, depending on your comfort and recovery progress. Always follow your surgeon’s specific post-operative care instructions to ensure optimal healing.
