In general or based on your experience at your practice, what is the maximum eligible BMI for a breast fat transfer? Is candidacy viewed holistically or based on BMI alone?
Answer: BMI Fat transfers can be done on those in good health. If you have a high BMI and plan to try to loose weight, it is best to avoid the fat transfer since it will shrink with weight loss. If you have a high BMI and don't plan to loose weight, perhaps you should reconsider trying to loose weight to be in the best health you can.

Answer: What is the BMI limit/cut-off for the Breast Fat Transfer procedure? Board certified PSs look for a between 25 and 30 when they perform aesthetic procedures so enhance results and to reduce the risks of complications during and after surgery. Thinner patients with a BMI above 24 are outstanding candidates in my opinion, because the fat transferred is extremely resistant. Results are largely dependent upon the skill of the surgeon, his/her ability to remove fat without creating contour deformities, and your expectations. You would need a consultation via email or Skype with a board certified PS to determine your available fat stores.

Answer: Obesity and fat transfer There is no absolute cut off. It’s up to each individual plastic surgeon of what they feel is appropriate.
