Interested in a natural breast augmentation. Is it possible to transfer fat from the back?

Hello @Diligent652234, thank you for your question. The best possible result is from liposculture where we take out fat from all parts of the body to make it more harmonious and transferring your own fat to the breast to give it more volume and improve the shape. Is important that you are clear with your specialist in the results that you seek. Best wishes!

Fat can almost be taken from any area to add to the breast volume. Choosing the location to take fat should consider:
-an area for cosmetic enhancement,
-the ease with which fat can be harvested,
-& the laxity of the skin of the area, amongst other things.

Although there is some research suggesting some areas for fat harvesting are superior to others, there is no final word on the best one. If someone has an area they do not like having fat, it should certainly be considered a potential first choice.

Dear Diligent652234,
generally speaking, it is possible to use fat from the back to transfer to breasts. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Fat can be transferred from anywhere to the breasts. Fat transfers are usually good for about 1 cup size increase.

If you opt for fat tanager keep your expectations very modest. I know plastic surgeon promote the surgery a lot because they know there is the demand for it, unfortunately the results from fat transfer are not nearly as good as advertised.

Fat can be taken from many areas of the body, including the back bra roll. However, most normal weight women do not have enough fat in this area for much of a transfer.

Dear Diligent,
It is certainly possible to transfer fat from the bra roll area to the breasts for augmentation. The question of whether it would be sufficient depends on your current breast size, the amount of fat in your bra roll, and the always unpredictable variable of how much of your transferred fat survives. Seek consultation with an American Board of Plastic Surgery board certified plastic surgeon for an examination and discussion of your goals and options. Good luck!
