Can I take fat from my butt to put into my breast?

Thank you for your question, 
Yes, fat can be liposuctioned from other areas of your body and transferred into your breasts. Fat Transfer to the Breast is a common surgery. You should make a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to find out what is best with you.
Best Of Luck!

I appreciate your question



I perform a natural breast augmentation with fat. This can be removed from any unwanted areas including the breast itself as part of my lipo-lift procedure. I perform the fat grafting in multiple planes including under the muscle to give the best, most natural enhancement. Fat grafting is a great solution for someone who wants to bring their breast size up a cup or so and use natural tissue vs an implant. However, it can also be combined with an implant or used as a secondary procedure to fill in areas that are flat or thin. It should not affect nipple sensation, mammograms, cancer risk or breast feeding. It can be a little lump or hard at first but tends to soften over time. If you gain or lose weight, the transferred fat can do the same.



The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.  Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic breast plastic surgery.



 



Best of luck!

Thanks for your question. Fat can be harvested from other parts of the body and placed in the breasts.  Your surgeon will judge where the best place to harvest the fat on your body would be located.  Be sure to choose a plastic surgeon who has a lot of experience performing this procedure to give the best results.  Best of luck.

Fat can be transferred from your upper buttock, not lower, to your breasts if you have enough fat to donate. I would suggest meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon and discussing all your options.
