I am very small chested A size and would want more full projection versus shallow breasts where the fat is closer to the chest. Can a doctor inject the fat in a certain way to achieve that?
Answer: Can your breasts be shaped by breast fat transfer or does the fat fill into the natural shape? Hi. There are a few surgeons that will augment the breast with fat injections and the use of a device called the Brava system. I find that the degree of augmentation that these patents receive is insufficient for my typical patient who is looking for a fuller look. Fat transfer to the breast are more often used to fill selective areas in conjunction with the breast augmentation with implants. Good luck. Dr. PG

Answer: Can your breasts be shaped by breast fat transfer or does the fat fill into the natural shape? The use of fat to augment the breast is highly variable and in my opinion- a waste of time and money. 1) If you have enough fat to meet your desired breast size- I question your lifestyle and your BMI, in other words- if you are slight of built and have no fat- you are limited in your volume transfer, also- it is highly variable the amount of the fat that will survive even with the use of BRAVA. 2) If you are not satisfied with your volume of fat transfer - you may need additional fat transfer procedures to achieve your intended goal. Even then, you may loose more of this additional fat. Therefore, I am not a proponent of fat transfer when we have available highly successful technologically advanced gel filled implants- that are long lasting and over time will be far less expensive.

Answer: Fat Transfer For Breast Augmentation Offers Amazing Control Of Form and Shape One of my favorite things about breast augmentation with fat transfer is that the surgeon can sculpt the form of the breast allowing the creation of very beautiful upper pole fullness, lower pole projection and medial cleavage. It is a wonderful technique as long as you have enough fat. I hope this helps!All the best,Rian A. Maercks M.D.

Answer: Can your breasts be shaped by breast fat transfer or does the fat fill into the natural shape? Thank you for your question. We do a lot of fat transfers (Natural fill on our website). Fat is best for filling in the skin envelope. It will not stretch out and shape a tight skin envelope. Would need to see pictures in order to give you reasonable expectations in your case.

Answer: Fat Transfer to the Breast: To shape or not to shape? This is a really awesome question, because it points out the key differences between breast augmentation with an implant vs. fat. Yes, you have a much higher degree of control incepting your breast with fat transfer. An implant typically only enhances your own native shape. The best example of the differences, is in a woman who has augmentation with an implant and has wide native cleavage. The implant will do nothing to improve this. fat, on the other hand can be used to give you a much narrower cleavage, even with wide native cleavage. Also, you have much more control in the upper pole fullness as well. One of the down sides to fat transfer vs implant augmentation, is your are limited to about a one size increase with fat transfer. You can have the best of both world by doing a combination of implant augmentation plus fat grafting. This is called a Composite Breast Augmentation! Again, great question!
