Fat transfer to improve breast asymmetry

Fat transfer can be used to enlarge the smaller breast; a one cup size increase is realistic with this procedure. The results are generally more natural in appearance than that of a breast implant, and will produce a better match with the untreated breast.

The most common donor areas are the abdomen and thighs.... more

Fat Transfer to Breasts

Without out pictures, it is difficult to give you specific advice. Based on your weight, it might be difficult to find enough fat to harvest to use for your breast. However, if available, fat transfer is possible and can be quite effective. Good luck.
