For those seeking a natural alternative to traditional implants, fat transfer breast augmentation offers a safe and effective solution. This innovative procedure enhances breast size and shape using the patient’s own fat, providing a natural look and feel without the need for synthetic implants. Dr. Tavakoli, a highly experienced plastic surgeon, specializes in this advanced technique, helping patients achieve their ideal breast contour with precision and artistry.
What is Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation?
Fat transfer breast augmentation, also known as hybrid breast augmentation, is a procedure that involves:
- Liposuction to remove fat from areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks.
- Purification of harvested fat to ensure optimal survival and retention.
- Injection of the fat into the breasts to enhance volume and shape.
This method provides a more natural enhancement, avoiding the risks associated with implants while utilizing the body’s own fat for contouring.
Benefits of Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation
Choosing fat transfer breast augmentation comes with multiple advantages:
- Natural-looking results – The procedure creates a soft, natural breast contour.
- No foreign implants – Reduces the risk of implant-related complications.
- Body contouring benefits – Liposuction enhances overall body proportions.
- Minimal scarring – Small incisions mean reduced visible scars.
- Less downtime – Recovery is generally quicker compared to implant surgery.
Who is a Good Candidate?
This procedure is ideal for:
- Patients seeking a modest breast size increase (typically ½ to 1 cup size).
- Those with sufficient fat stores in other body areas for transfer.
- Individuals looking for a more natural alternative to implants.
- Patients seeking breast symmetry correction or enhancement after implant removal.
For those desiring a larger increase in breast size, a combination of fat transfer and implants (hybrid breast augmentation) may be recommended.
Recovery and Results
- Mild swelling and bruising are common in the first few weeks.
- Patients can usually return to light activities within a few days.
- Final results become visible over a few months as the fat settles.
- A percentage of the transferred fat naturally absorbs, but long-term volume retention is typically high.
