I have breast implant and interested in adding little amount of fat will it rupture the implant if only 100-150 cc is injected? Can this amount be injected superficial? Also, I would like to know if I’m doing it by local anaesthesia does breast need to be injected with local and if it is will it also rupture the implant? Or can I do it without injecting local on breast
Answer: Is it possible to do awake fat graft for 100cc only of fat? Above breast implant? Small volume fat is commonly done awake

Answer: Fat Yes, fat can be safely transferred as an awake procedure in the office. However, local anesthesia will need to be injected. Your surgeon should be able to do this carefully and not injure the implant. You would not do well with no anesthesia.

Answer: Awake Breast Fat Transfer with Implants We perform this procedure all the time. The procedure is performed with the patient relaxed with oral medication. Fat is gently sculpted from the body. The breasts are numbed with local anesthesia and filled with fat only in the superficial plane. This plane is underneath the skin but superficial to the breast tissue and even more superficial to the implant, especially if the implant is underneath the muscle. In other words, the implants are not touched at all during the the numbing and the fat transfer.
