What Is Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation: Candidacy, Recovery, & More

Most patients are familiar with breast augmentation surgery using either saline or silicone implants, but there is an alternative way to increasing your breast size and fullness without the use of implants… introducing fat transfer to the breast, also known as fat transfer breast augmentation!

What Is A Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation?

Fat transfer to the breasts is a great procedure if you would like to subtlety increase the size of your breasts without using an implant. This is done by combining liposuction of unwanted fat from various areas you would like to target (such as the waist, abdomen, arms, thighs, etc) and then transferring that purified fat to the breasts. You will increase the size and fullness of your breasts with your OWN body fat, no implants necessary!

Who Is A Good Candidate?

To be a candidate, it’s important that you already have your desired breast shape, good skin tone, and only want a moderate increase in size, as this procedure alone is not able to solve sagging breasts or provide dramatic changes in size. It’s also important that you’re physically healthy with no medical conditions that impair healing. If you identify with the following, this may be a great option for you:

  • You do not wish to have implants

  • You want a moderate increase to your breast size

  • You have areas on your body that you would like to target with liposuction

  • You want a more natural option to increase breast size

How Many Cup Sizes Can You Gain With Fat Transfer?

Roughly one cup size or 150cc! If you wish to achieve a larger increase in cup size, you may consider multiple rounds of fat transfer or breast implants may be a better option for you.

How Long Does Surgery Take?

The exact length of time will depend on your BMI and how much fat will be removed, but this procedure typically lasts between 2 to 2.5 hours under local anesthesia.

Can Fat Transfer To The Breasts Be Performed While You’re Awake?

Yes, we can perform fat transfer to the breasts under local anesthesia! Patients will be given a cocktail of medicine to ensure they are comfortable throughout the process.

How Long Does It Take To Heal?

Patients will typically require about one week off from work. You will need to take it easy for about 4-6 weeks after undergoing a fat transfer breast augmentation which means no exercising or lifting anything over 5 pounds.
