I'm 18 years old, 173cm tall and weigh about 63 kilograms. My left breast (B cup) is a full cup size larger than my right. I hate having asymmetrical breasts and really want to have a fat transfer procedure to make the right breast a B cup to match. I'm fairly fit so I'm worried I won't have enough fat to 'harvest'. Also, what would be the cost of this procedure be in Australia? Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated! (Oh and I definitely do not want breast implants)
Depending on your expectations you may obtain an excellent result with fat grafting. There is no question in my mind that your left breast size can be achieved with fat grafting to the right breast. I perform fat grafting augmentations on models in Miami that cannot afford to have an artificial lift. Evern thin models have enough extra fat in their circumferential thighs for a subtle but significant augmentation. The most important part of the augmentation for you is the careful release of the inframammary fold on the right. Without releasing the fold you will not obtain an aesthetically sound result. I hope this helps!

i am a small framed caucasian/asian 40 year old. Can I have fat grafting done on my face if I have had a filler Six months ago (hylaronia, I think that is how to spell it) but it has clearly worn off. I really want to have a Brazilian butt lift and have my crows feet and forehead worked on as well. I have been working on increasing my body fat % which is now 19%. I am wondering if I am a candidate for a BBL with no implants and if I would be able to address my face issues at the same time.
The simply answer is yes you can have fat grafting after fillers, and yes BBL can be performed at the same time. I commonly performs laser and BBL treatments in conjunction with fat grafting and fillers. Depending on the depth and severity of your crows feet you may benefit more from a focal Erbium resurfacing or possibly infrared heating with Skintyte II. The best modality depends on your physical findings. It is important to see a plastic surgeon who can evaluate and select the intervention to give you the best results and discuss all surgical and nonsurgical options with you. Facial fat grafting in conjunction with gluteal fat grafting ( Brazilian butt lift) is a good idea but the surgeon must be well versed in both. Harvesting technique should be different for each grafting site. A thin slurry of fat harvested carefully with a very small canula yields the best results in the face while thick fat harvested through larger canulas usually result in the best gains in the gluteal region. I prefer to use a waterjet fat graft harvesting system ( bodyjet by humanmed). This allows minimal to no bruising improved comfort and high quality fat harvest. I hope this helps!

I am 42 5'2" & about 130 pounds. I had breast implants 20 yrs ago. They encapsulated and caused me lots of complications. I got them replaced & removed 4 years later. I now have uneven breast - 1 A cup & 1 AA cup & they are different shapes now. My question is -since Im not a candidate for implants, would you recommend fat grafting for me if I only want to inject fat into the smaller breast (AA) so that it can be the same size & shape as the (A) cup? How much fat would I need? thanks!
based on your history you may be an excellent candidate for breast fat grafting. This may not be your only option as a history of breast implant problems does not necessarily rule out the possibility of using breast implants to accomplish your goals. Fat grafting can certainly offer an alternative which has certain advantages. This should be discussed with a board certified plastic surgeon who can offer their opinion during a consultation. good luck.
