Is Getting Fat Injection to Breasts Safe?

I'm 5' 6.5" and 178lbs. I'm 24 years old and considering getting fat injection to my breasts. I currently a cup B; however, I want it to be make my breasts fuller or bigger as cup C. I prefer this method to the implant because it's more natural. I wonder if there will be any risks or side effect. Am I a good candidate for this procedure? What is the method of getting fat out of my body? Is this procedure widely used? Thank you!!

A: Fat Injections to The Breast

The quick answer is that no one knows for sure.  Some studies have shown that it does not interfere with routine standard mammograms to detect breast cancer but some studies have not.  It is too soon for a definitive conclusion. Hopefully over the next few years, with further studies and research, the answer will become clearer.

Fat Injection in Lip Caused Large Hard Lump

One year ago I had fat transfer to my face and my lips. On the lower lip there was always a small bulge just below the lip line, but it wasn't noticeable. About 2 months ago I developed a large hard lump in my lower lip. There are a couple of very small hard places in my upper lip, however they do not show. THe one on my lower lip is very noticeable and looks like a bee sting or like I have been hit. What is the best resolution for this problem

A: Lump after Fat Transfer

This lump could be caused from either infection, scar tissue or the injected fat itself.  If you are experiencing pain or tenderness in this area you should see your injecting surgeon immediately.  If you do not have pain and/or tenderness, I would still recommend seeing your injecting surgeon for possible steroid injections to the lump.

Can I Have Fat Grafting from Another Part of my Body into my Inner Thighs?

I had bad liposuction results inside my inner thighs. Can I have fat grafting from another part of my body into my inner tights???? What part of the body do you suggest can be used for this procedure? Please respond. Thanks!

A: Fat transfer for inner thighs.

Fat Grafting can be done from another part of the body and placed in the inner thighs or any other region.

To get the best results, your surgeons should  perform liposuction and lipotransfer using non-traumatic fashion.

It requires patience and good technique to maximize the improvement.

Hope this was helpful.
