Breast before procedure
I have reloaded a picture of my breast before alloclae procedure. As you can see, my right breast was much smaller than my left. I lost some volume after breastfeeding. My goal for the procedure was to add size and volume and I was able to achieve that.
Alloclae Breast Fat Transfer (Donor Fat)
I wanted to write a review for Alloclae as this is a very new FDA approved procedure that many people may not know of. I wanted to provide an honest review in hopes of providing insight into the decision-making process of getting this procedure done.
I have always been pretty small-chested for my athletic frame. I am 5'6, 160lbs. Prior to breastfeeding, I was closer to a B cup. After breastfeeding, I was a solid a cup on my left breast, and slightly under an A cup on my right. I would estimate there was a 0.5cc difference. There was some volume loss particularly on the upper and lower poles of my breast, especially the right one. I learned of Alloclae by accident scrolling through the web of alternative breast enhancements from implants. After some time researching, I decided to schedule an appt with Dr. Zeidler due to her primary focus on breast enhancement, education and skillset, her bedside manner, and her location.
On the day of the appointment, I was brought into their medical room promptly. Pictures and numbing agent were put on me. After waiting the hour for the solution to take effect, the procedure began. I will say the poking of the needle for the numbing solution was quite painful. Dr. Zeidler ended up having to inject various cc of lidocaine to help block the nerves. The procedure is done awake with no anesthesia, however the doctor was nice enough to put a towel over me so that I didn't have to watch the process.
When the procedure was done, I was surprised how much bigger my breast looked. I wasn't going for 100% symmetry, but I did want it to look relatively balanced. I ordered 200cc total. 87.5cc went to the left, and 112.5 cc went to the right. I went from an A cup to a C cup!
I was sent home with some aftercare instructions. I will saw that being post 9 days out. I was more sore than I thought I would be. I have a pretty high pain tolerance, but the pain has been at a 7-8 up until 1-2 days ago. You may need to consider a moderate dose ibuprofen. Also, if you are active like me, you can expect to be down for the count for at least 2 weeks. Any jumping or compression on the breasts hurt. I have also had to sleep upright (I am a stomach sleeper) because of the pain and discomfort that ensues if anything compresses the breasts. It's still a bit uncomfortable to wear any bras for a long period of time, so I have been going without.
Finally, I will say my skin has been stretched as a result of the swelling, etc., so I have experienced some stretch marks and thinning of the skin of the breasts. Not ideal, but this is no fault of the doctor. I will wait for the swelling to go down before I treat the stretch marks. My breasts are still quite red and they do itch. The doctor has been responsive to my inquiries which has been an added plus.
