I had a consultation for a natural breast aug & walked out hopeless. Im an A cup lookin to be a C or at least a full B, but the consultant told me I didn't have enough fat & was looking to get 1/2cup results, if even. I was recommended implants but I'm in no way comfortable with them. The problem is that I too want a Bbl so I need enough fat for that as well. Should I continue to shop around for a DR that can give me the results I want & gain weight during the meantime or give up on that hope?
Answer: Breast augmentation dilemma: help? I was recommended implants but I'm in no way comfortable with them. Breast Augmentation is an outpatient procedure, which means you come in the morning and can go home the same day of the surgery. It is a day care procedure. You should make sure that you choose the right size of implant very judiciously. Discuss about your desired aesthetics goals with your surgeon. Also discuss about the approach of breast augmentation as well as the plane. Once you discuss all these things, you can also request for a Crisalix 3D Simulation, so you can see what your results will look like before the surgery. Our patients discuss these questions with us and once they know what to expect from the surgery, they are less apprehensive or scared.

Answer: Breast augmentation dilemma: help? I was recommended implants but I'm in no way comfortable with them. If you sought out a board certified plastic surgeon with a reputation for performing these procedures effectively in thinner patients, you probably received a reasonable recommendation. If you did not have enough fat to harvest for a fat transfer to the breast, it is unlikely that you would be a good candidate for a BBL.

Answer: Hope You should never do anything you aren't comfortable with, especially surgery. I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with. Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS), a member of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and a fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach TrainedDouble Board-Certified, Double Fellowship-Trained Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon

Answer: YES, keep doctor shopping You can have what you want. Breast implants come in smaller sizes and many shapes and are highly cohesive so they don’t ripple or wrinkle even under skin of very lean women. Implants are safe, long lasting, feel natural, and unlike fat transfer are guaranteed to produce your desired augmentation in one procedure. There’s always sufficient fat in certain depot (energy storage) areas (unless you’re truly cachectic) for BBL. My advice is to keep researching board certified aesthetic plastic surgeons, i.e. at surgery.org.

Answer: Breast Augmentation Dilemma Coffeebeans. I am afraid that if you do not have enough fat for breast augmentation, you definitely do not have enough fat for BBL to achieve a size that you desire. Both fat transfer and breast implants have pros and cons and you should consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss all aspects of each procedure. Unfortunately, if there’s not enough fat, implants are your best option. Best of luck.
