I had a previous post regarding weight loss and breast rippling, I was curious to know if it is possible to transfer fat to the breasts while having implants. I loved my more full breasts when I couldn’t feet them and the fullness was more of my own fat. I have become very aware of the implants and can feel them more as to when I had more fat I never felt them to be foreign to my body. Is going under the muscle an option for ripples on he Cleavage area.

Answer: Fat transfer Dear Cristinajjj,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.Daniel Barrett, MD

Answer: Follow-up: Is it possible to perform a fat transfer over implants? Any scar tissue from the implantation can interfere with breast fat transfer in the sense that the plastic surgeon may have more difficulty navigating around the involved area. Breast augmentation, liposuction and fat grafting are performed routinely in my practice.
