Hi there, I’m a 24 year old wanting to get breast fat transfer. I have a pear shaped body and wear a 30b bra size. I have fat on my thighs and a small amount my stomach I’m hoping to use. Im wondering what size I can realistically expect to increase too? I have seen that 250cc - 400cc is needed for a one cup increase? Would this be the same for someone of my size? Also, would a surgeon be able to place 400cc in each of my breasts? Thanks in advance :)
Answer: What size can I increase to with breast fat transfer? The amount of fat "take" or survival will vary depending on the patient's health, age, and anatomy. In general, the consensus seems to be that the maximal increase under normal conditions is one cup size, but often less.

Answer: B cup - what size can I increase to with breast fat transfer? Fat transfer to the breasts can be an effective form of breast augmentation for up to one cup size increase. 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. Multiple transfers would be required for additional cc's. In general, the abdomen and thighs are preferred donor sites but fat from other areas can be used.

Answer: B cup - what size can I increase to with breast fat transfer? Hello @urbanfloraxo thank you for your question. Breast fat transfer or autologous fat lipoinjection is a natural volume technique that can be applied for aesthetic or restorative purposes. It should be noted that lipotransfer does not replace augmentation mammoplasty with prostheses, since each technique has its own indication and requirements. This technique is used to provide symmetry and improve the body contour and therefore does not increase more than one size. The best course of action is to consult one or several board certified plastic surgeon for more information and options tailored specifically to your needs. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD FACS

Answer: Fat transfer The amount of fat the stays after transfer to the breasts is very hard to control and is unpredictable. I think you're better off with implants

Answer: Fat transfer Dear Genius891839, fat transfer breast augmentation is a viable alternative for women who desire larger breasts without the use of implants. Fat transfer is also widely used in reconstruction of the breast after a mastectomy or lumpectomy. It can also be very effective in correcting the size and shape of the breasts due to genetic problems such as tuberous breast or Poland Syndrome, two conditions that look like misshapen or underdeveloped breasts.In addition, the following scenarios are also reason to consider breast fat grafting:• If you have chest areas that appear creased and sunken• If you desire more permanent correction than is provided by temporary fillers• If you wish to improve your body contour, revise scars, fill bodily depressions and rejuvenate the natural curve of your breasts• To fill in contour irregularities or hide obvious signs of breast implantsYou should discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon and make sure your surgeon understands your concerns and your breast augmentation goals. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
