Best Natural Breasts at Age 56 with Fat Transfer for Breast Augmentation - Charlotte, NC

Final results of fat transfer to my breasts/incision harvest sites 83 days!

WORTH IT$10,500
I wanted to respond to the ladies who are concerned about my harvest incision sites and profile of those area to see how they have responded...skin elasticity and lumpiness from Liposuction. Given my age, 2 children in my mid to late 30's and irish/italian decent, I have my belly bumps but certainly better with less subcutaneous fat! I believe I'm a classic "skinny fat girl" because of my silicone implants for almost 20 years creating visceral bad fat from all my illness and toxins. That is behind me and hope these pictures give you some comfort with an ole gal like me! It will get better with RF tightening and collagen production in the next 3 months.

Pls post your procedure process on the RF and collagen production procedures. Im having trouble finding consistent info on site. Your review has been one of most helpful....especially since we are apx same age

My belly skin laxity is something I will battle forever as I just didn't bounce back after delivering over an 8 lb child at age 37! My daughter was built like her father. Ha! I began the Venus legacy RF tightening on August 8, almost 2 months following Bednar's procedure. I have gone 3 times total, one every 2 weeks. The jury is still out on my being convinced that this will allow me to wear a 2 piece high cut swimsuit in 3 months, but that is what the studies indicate....it is a cumulative affect with wait time of 3 months for final results. 90 days seems to be the magic bullet for matrix of new collagen synthesis. Hope this helps. Continued good healing for you. I think both of us defy the prejudices against older women's outcome and feel blessed to have you and many other women on this website sharing each other's wisdom that led me to Bednar who outperformed my expectations. Peace

Is the fat transfer permanent and last indefinitely?

Yes, I believe Dr Bednar's patient results attest to the 90 day mark as being the timeline of fat cell establishment. Sorry if you didn't see prior post regarding the efficacy of the fat transfer. I got busy and hadn't responded to you before leaving town. Thanks and hope this helps!

Hi - I saw a comment you posted on another review (55m, I believe) which led me back to your review to ask a question. How have your lumps and bumps healed? I believe you mentioned having them back in October. Any improvements? I have to say, these pics don't indicate you have any, at least I'm not seeing any, but you mentioned it so I wanted to ask. Thank you!

Sorry, just getting back to you. If you look at my earlier replies, yes, I have some dimpling on my belly...more because of the laxity in skin that I've had post child bearing. But no, I have no irregularities from Dr. Bednar's harvest areas in my back, flanks, and legs. At least, not noticeable per my fiancé. We are our own worse critics, and I'm delighted with the outcome given what I put my body through with the silicone implants and toxic yeast/mold. I am blessed. Busy getting a new phone, backing it up so I haven't any new pics. No change.....:)

Close to 2 weeks from my 90 day breast fat transfer happy dance!

Again, I am pleased with my retention results, measuring a 34D, good upper pole, nice teardrop shape and fit my frame. Bednar did a great job.

How are the incision sites? Did you have any scars that are still visible? Looks great! I had a consult with dr bednar as well and I'm in the process of saving up for mine :)

Yes, I'll post a picture that will hopefully show the 4 prominent ones in the bikini/groin area, but the breast/back are barely visible. I'm past my string bikini days so the sun will not be shining on that low bikini line any time soon! Takes a year to heal according to Sylvia. LOL!

None beyond my existing belly skin stretched and bumps from 2 babies and a small hernia. I will try to get a picture as soon as possible.

You look amazing. I'm considering getting fat transfer to my breasts. Although still big, I've lost volume at the top. I would be so happy if my result was to look like yours..

You look great! Do you have a filter on in your photos? Or just good lighting?

Pulled an archived photo I had of my outer thigh at 10 days post op to show the bruising from the harvest site where I had the least amount of "cush"! Thought this would give perspective relative to my breast redness where I had trauma at injection site.
