I live in NYC and I have been considering fat transfer to my breasts. I've always wanted lipo and larger breasts but didn't want implants, so this procedure seems perfect for me. I also don't have any breast cancer in my family at all. I recently had consults in Miami with Dr. Khouri and also saw Dr. Christina Ahn in NYC. (Dr. Coleman was out of my price range.) I am torn with Dr. Ahn and Dr. Khouri. I feel more comfortable with Dr. Ahn, but I hear Dr. Khouri is one of the best.
There are several viewpoints regarding fat grafting for breast augmentation. Although, there is good data to support its use, it is not a mainstream procedure with several questions that are being examined. Currently, the most recent American Society of Plastic Surgery position statement on the subject was put forth in January 2009 (plasticsurgery.org/Documents/medical-professionals/health-policy/guiding-principles/ASPS-Fat-Transfer-Graft-Guiding-Principles.pdf). Since then, there have been more studies regarding this procedure. Several of us perform this procedure in the area, but the more well known practioners nationally are: Daniel Del Vecchio (Boston), Roger Khouri (Miami), and Sydney Coleman (New York). Best wishes on achieving your goal.
