Fat graft to breasts - does the injection site leave a scar?

Dear Reliable855251,
In the case of fat transfer to breasts, incisions are very small, so the scars are almost invisible. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Hello @Reliable855251, thank you for your question. The incisions are usually only a few millimeters in length, the incisions used for fat grafting to the breasts are extremely small. Any resulting scars are usually barely noticeable due to their small size and frequently disappear with time. Additionally, to further reduce visibility, doctors carefully position these incisions in covert areas. Another benefit of fat grafting is that, generally speaking, it recovers faster than more invasive procedures like implant placement. . I recommend scheduling a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. This will allow you to examine and discuss the best options for your specific case and goals. Best wishes!

There are tiny scars from the very small cannula used to insert the fat. No stitches are stables are usually used. The scar for harvesting fat is a little larger, but still small.

Both Liposuction and fat transfer, requires making small incisions. Liposuction incisions tend to be more visible because of the amount of work done through the opening.
Grafting fat is less traumatic on the skin opening, and the incisions tend to heal without visible scars, or minimally visible scars.
Plastic surgeons vary on how they make they were decisions how many decisions are made, and where the incisions are placed.
Delivering consistent quality, Liposuction, and fat transfer results is more difficult than most people realize. The number of plastic surgeons who have truly mastered These procedures are in a minority.
I suggest having multiple inperson consultations with local plastic surgeons in your area.
