Hi, im 27 years old, and i have already have a doctor consult about a fat transfer to my breasts, It is important to note i had a noncancerous lump (fibroandenoma) removed years ago in my right breast only. So my plastic surgeon said they wanted to use my previous nipple scar as a place to inject the fact i suppose to reduce scarring, this a previous scar very close to the nipple really a safe place to inject fat for a breast fat transfer? This is a really specific issue

Answer: Fat injections in the breast through a previous scar Thank you for your query. It seems to be a good idea to use the previous scars as injection sites for fat augmentation, especially as the lump was completely benign. I usually use the areola to inject as it leaves no visible scars. Please discuss all your concerns with your surgeon. All the best!
