Am I a good candidate for breast fat transfer? 30 y/o hoping to achieve a fuller, less saggy look (photos)

Your breasts are low on the chest wall. You will need a lift and the technique I recommend is The Bellesoma Method. This will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained. Later, fat transfers or small implants can be placed if additional volume is desired.

Best Wishes,

Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Fat transfer can help with some volume to help fill the breasts and shape. You do have some ptosis, but I would not necessarily push for a lift given your expectations and small amount of ptosis. The problem I see is where to get the fat, you look quite thin. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for your question. Based on your photos, you are unlikely to have a significant volume of fat available for transfer due to your overall physique. If you wish to avoid an implant and would like a fuller upper pole, I would recommend that you undergo a breast uplift procedure with auto-augmentation. This means using tissue from the lower portion of your breast (often removed as part of an uplift or reduction procedure) and keeping it to improve the projection of your breasts. Fat could be added in addition if there are adequate volumes available.

Hello! Congrats on your weight loss journey! To achieve what you are looking for, I would recommend having a consult with a surgeon and considering Fat Transfer and possible breast lift. With the two surgeries combined, I believe this will give you the results you are looking for!
Best of luck!

Dear goldencherry,
fat transfer breast augmentation is a viable alternative for women who desire larger breasts without the use of implants. Fat transfer is also widely used in reconstruction of the breast after a mastectomy or lumpectomy. It can also be very effective in correcting the size and shape of the breasts due to genetic problems such as tuberous breast or Poland Syndrome, two conditions that look like misshapen or underdeveloped breasts.In addition, the following scenarios are also reason to consider breast fat grafting:• If you have chest areas that appear creased and sunken• If you desire more permanent correction than is provided by temporary fillers• If you wish to improve your body contour, revise scars, fill bodily depressions and rejuvenate the natural curve of your breasts• To fill in contour irregularities or hide obvious signs of breast implantsYou should discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon and make sure your surgeon understands your concerns and your breast augmentation goals. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
