Hi, is it advisable or rather will it jeopardize my fat transfer if i have collagen injection on my breast?
Answer: Collagen I would not recommend placing the collagen into the area of fat. I am not sure why you even want collagen injections to your breast or any other part of your body since Hyaluronic acid, like Juvederm, is much safer and less reactive.

Answer: Will it jeopardize my breast fat transfer if I get a collagen injection? Hello @Charming589613, thank you for your question. Depending on the technique to make the the lipo transfer, the tissues take more or less time to stabilize and integrate properly.Collagen injections are usually placed at a different plane than fat is located in a lipoinjection procedure and if is done that way there would be no correlation or damage. Best wishes! Alana Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: Fat transfer Dear Charming589613, I understand your concern. It is best that you consult your plastic surgeon regarding post operative care and management (i.e including massage techniques and timing) specific to your case. Your surgeon knows your condition well and has preferences on when and what to use for faster healing and recovery. Post operative care and management depends on the type of surgery performed and the technique used during surgery among other factors.It is best, however, that you follow your plastic surgeon's advice on post operative care management for a smooth and faster healing and recovery.

Answer: Will it jeopardize my breast fat transfer if I get a collagen injection? Combining a breast fat transfer with collagen injections may not be advisable without consulting with a medical professional. Collagen injections can potentially interfere with the success of a fat transfer procedure. Collagen injections may lead to the displacement or absorption of the transferred fat, affecting the desired results. It’s essential to discuss your specific situation and goals with a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine the best approach for your desired outcome and to ensure your safety.

Answer: Collagen injections In the United States collagen injections fell out a favor rapidly when new better alternatives became available in particular Restylane which was the first HA hyaluronic acid based filler. Before HA fillers were available collagen had a short lifespan and had undesirable side effects like leaving bumps and requiring allergy testing. Regardless, most cosmetic fillers are prohibitively expensive to use for body contouring purposes and are primarily aimed for facial aesthetics where one and 2 mL syringes are sufficient to have a substantial impact. You didn’t include any context in regards to timing to the various procedures. I suggest you ask each of the providers how they feel about this. Collagen injections for breast augmentation is some thing that doesn’t happen in the United States at least not commonly. Perhaps you live in a different country with different products, different rules and different medical standards. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
