What Does This Procedure Do?
Fat transfer to breasts, also known as autologous fat grafting, is a procedure designed to enhance breast size and shape subtly. By utilising your body's own fat cells, this method provides a small augmentation without the need for implants. It's an ideal solution for individuals seeking a slight change in look and feel to their breasts.
What Does This Procedure Not Do?
It's important to note that fat transfer to breasts may not be suitable for drastic size changes. While it achieves a subtle enhancement, it may not provide the dramatic results some patients desire, which can often be achieved through traditional breast augmentation with implants.
Who is an Ideal Candidate?
This procedure is good for individuals desiring subtle breast augmentation without implants. It's particularly beneficial for patients with little breast tissue or thin skin, where it can effectively disguise visible implants or skin rippling. Fat transfer to breasts is also an excellent option for those considering breast implant removal or breast implant removal and lift procedures, allowing for volume replacement.
