Can you have a fat transfer to your breasts and butt during the same procedure?

Question

Can this be done in one procedure or would I only be able to do one area at a time?

Thank you for your question, 
Yes, fat can be liposuctioned from other areas of your body and transferred into your breasts and buttocks in the same surgery. Fat Transfer to the breast and buttocks is a common two procedure surgery. You should make a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to find out what is best with you.
Best Of Luck!

Yes, you can transfer fat to the breasts and butt in the same procedure. The key for high fat survival is preparing the recipient sight (breast) properly PRIOR to the procedure. The fat survival rate we can achieve with our procedure is 85%. We use an external expander to prepare the recipient sight and achieve these results, in accordance with the latest studies.

Dear Patient: thanks for your question.  You can Transfer fat to both the Breasts and the Buttocks, however the limiting factor would be how much Fat we can harvest from areas of your body safely.  The usual recommendations would be that you should not be harvesting more than five liters of fat in one procedure.  Always go to a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to get a combination of procedures done, they are the ones trained to do these type of procedures.  Hope this helps!

Yes, you can have these areas done at the same time. Technique is important for best results. I use gentle water-assisted harvesting to get the most viable fat to transfer and survive. I then combine with prp and sculptra (to the buttock) to improve final results. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a body shaping expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Fat can be transferred safely to the breasts and buttock in the same procedure.  Ideally pressure is avoided on the grafted area for some time after transfer but a short period pressure on the grafted area during the surgery does not jeopardize the results.
