Is the Brava Required Before Fat Transfer to the Breasts?

April 24, 2012
Asked By:MakenzieR in Seattle, WA

I am considering fat transfer breast augmentation because I don't want to be too much bigger, and do not want implants.I've read that the Brava system does not work for breast enlargement, but have seen a few recommend it as a precursor to fat transfer. Do all surgeons require this? Why wouldn't I just do the Brava on it's own?
