I'm a 5'5 and 135-140lb female, my current measurements are 34' underbust with approximately 13' across, one breast is a 1/2 inch off my chest and the other is approximately an 1'. I breastfed 7mo post partum. I'm researching heavily into correcting volume loss. I know the survival percentage rate of fat graft is largely varying between surgeons and ive heard that it can also vary if they use a Brava. Could anyone advise me if this is reasonable with my current volume shape? Thx
Answer: Fat Grafting Fat grafting will typically only increase your cup size by 1 size, so you would only get to a size B cup. 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: Fat You will first need donor fat for the transfer, and then may achieve only one half to one cup in increase with a transfer. Beyond that, you may need implants. I would suggest meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon and discussing your options.

Answer: Fat grafting to improve breast volume Hello Shelraye,If you have enough donor fat, fat grafting for breast augmentation can be an excellent option. Generally a single fat grafting session can achieve a 1/2 cup to 1 cup increase in size. Though, I have had patients achieve in a single session, two sessions may be needed for larger volume increases. Your asymmetry can be corrected with the fat transfer and should not be an issue. Fat survival in the breast is around 60-70% when fat is placed in both the breast tissues and pectorals muscle.I would recommend an in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this type of fat transfer to determine if this would be a good procedure for you to meet your goals.Best of Luck!Dr. Rednam

Answer: Fat transfer to breasts A fat transfer to your breasts can increase your cup size some if you have enough donor fat to harvest from other areas of your body. I have had excellent results with purified fat transfer to the breast but managing expectations with the patient is key. Generally, patients can go up one size maximum. I recommend an in person consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to address a cosmetic treatment plan that best suits your needs.

Answer: Fat grafting to breasts Generally you only increase a cup size with fat grafting to ensure viability of the large majority of fat cells. However, "cup size" is rather arbitrary, and you could certainly get some improvement in shape based on your pics. Also fat grafting would help even out your breasts more as well. You might need 2-3 treatments separated over time to achieve the results you want. Also, without seeing your torso and legs, you have to have enough fat to harvest in those areas as well.
