Thank you for your question! Yes, it is possible to transfer fat to the breasts to make them larger. This procedure is called fat transfer to the breasts. First, gentle liposuction removes fat from parts of your body like your thighs, abdomen, and love handles. The fat is processed to remove impurities and fluids and is then injected into your breasts. I recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon who has experience with this procedure. Best of luck!
In general, 200 cc per breast is typically the upper limit of fat injection recommended by most plastic surgeons. It is not that more cannot be injected; but on average, this has been determined to be the most that can be expected to live during one transfer. Fat transfer to the breast could improve the fullness of the breast, particularly at the top of the breast. If you want more than a one cup size increase, this may require multiple treatments to reach the size you desire. In general, the abdomen and thighs are preferred areas for harvesting fat.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA
yes, fat from the general abdominal area can be used for transfer. The most viable fat cells can be found in the flanks, abs and thighs
Fat transfer is a well respected technique that can increase breast volume and improve the shape of breasts. It is becoming increasingly more common as more doctors embrace this technique. I would find a board certified plastic surgeon in your area and discuss your options.
Yes, abdominal fat may be transferred to the breast to give you a half to one cup increase in size. If you want larger breasts, you may need additional transfers, or implants. I would suggest meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon and discussing your options.
Fat grafting is a great option for patients with realistic expectation. If you are looking for natural look and feel , then fat grafting is a great option. Do not expect more than one cup enlargement with one surgery. Please see the link
It is very unlikely that you caused harm when this happened to you. Many of our patients have been punched by their kids in their breasts, some pretty hard, and all the fat survived-just keep an eye out on your progress and communicate any changes to your PS.
Sorry to hear that you are experiencing complications with your procedure.I would continue following up with the same surgeon before seeing another to have the drain removed.Best of luck with continues healing.Dr T
The results of fat grafting depends on the amount of fat available to be harvested and breast volume to be grafted. Please see the link
