Fat Transfer to Restore Breast Fullness After Weight Loss?

2 months ago, I lost 15 kg from my weight and I lost the large percent from my upper part especially my breasts which become smaller and not tight.

I want to fill my breast and make it little larger in size than before but I don't know what is the best choice for my case?

I prefer Fat injection because I will do Liposuction on my thighs.

Fat transfer to breasts

Fat transfer to your breasts will probably not satisfy you in terms of providing enough volume and lift. In addition, many of us do not recommend it given the unknown long-term consequences of placing fat in this region. This is a fairly controversial area in plastic surgery right now. I suggest seeing a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area for an opinion on implants +/- breast lift versus fat. Good luck and best wishes.

Fat grafting or injection for breast enlargement or augmentation without implants

Fat injection to the breasts, although performed for several years in Europe, is a relatively new concept in the USA with preliminary reports. Concerns about cyst formation or hard nodules from fat necrosis as well as interference with mammography have prevented this from being taken up as a popular option. Early results here are being evaluated and the technique may become more popular as methods and techniques are refined. Stay tuned! Be aware that this option may intially be... more
