What Does This Procedure Do?
Fat transfer to breasts, also known as autologous fat grafting, is a procedure designed to change breast size and shape. By utilising your body's own fat cells, this method provides a small augmentation without the need for implants. It's a potential 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 can produce a small desired change, it may not provide the dramatic results some patients desire, which can often be achieved through traditional breast augmentation mammoplasty with implants.
Who is an Ideal Candidate?
This procedure can be suitable for individuals desiring subtle breast augmentation mammoplasty without implants. Fat transfer to breasts is also an option for those considering breast implant removal or breast implant removal and lift (mastopexy) procedures, allowing for volume replacement.
Fat Transfer Systems and Why Dr. Hertess Uses PureGraft
Dr. Hertess utilises the PureGraft Fat Transfer system to encourage quality results. This advanced technology helps ensure that the fat used in the procedure is purified and smooth.
Recovery and Garments
The recovery period for fat transfer to breasts is relatively short compared to traditional breast augmentation mammoplasty surgeries. Patients may experience mild discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which usually subside within a few weeks. Specialised compression garments are provided to support the healing process. Following post-operative care instructions diligently helps with recovery.
Pricing
The pricing for fat transfer to breasts varies based on several factors, including the volume of fat being transferred, the time required for the procedure, and whether it is performed in combination with other surgeries like breast implant removal or lift (mastopexy). Dr. Hertess understands the uniqueness of each patient's needs; therefore, a personalised consultation is necessary to determine the exact pricing specific to your requirements. During the consultation, all aspects of the procedure, including costs and financing options, will be thoroughly discussed to ensure transparency and clarity.
