What Are the Benefits of Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation?

If you want nicely sculpted breasts that aren’t more than one cup larger than what you currently have, fat transfer surgery may be a good option for you. You may decide to have this advanced form of breast augmentation for many reasons because the procedure provides:

• A natural alternative to improve the size and shape of your breasts
• Improvements to your body proportions by enhancing your breast and cleavage
• An opportunity to reshape your body by removing excess stubborn fat from other areas
• No scars on your breasts because your surgeon doesn’t need to cut into your breasts
• Few complications because the procedure doesn’t use artificial implants
• Minimal scarring because the procedure needs only tiny incisions for the fat harvesting
• Lifelong results with no specialized care or replacements required
• Reduced downtime after surgery since it’s minimally invasive
• A psychological boost with an improved body image

After discussing your treatment goals with Dr. Shokrian, he creates an individualized treatment plan just for you. He performs the fat harvesting only in areas you wish to trim, which improves your overall body appearance.

What Happens During Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation?

Fat transfer breast augmentation enhances your breast shape and size without implants. The procedure also reduces fat in other parts of your body. This is an outpatient procedure, meaning you recuperate at home. The main steps in the procedure include:

1. Blueprint plan. After an assessment, your cosmetic surgeon marks the areas to harvest fat from and the injection sites on your breasts. The best areas for fat harvesting include your:
   • Inner thighs
   • Outer hips
   • Love handles
   • Abdomen or flanks
   • Back
   • Arms
2. Anesthesia. You’re usually given local anesthesia on the identified treatment areas and a sedative, although general anesthesia is an option.
3. Fat harvesting. Your cosmetic surgeon makes small incisions in the donor area to harvest the fat needed for your breast augmentation procedure.
4. Fat concentration. The plastic surgery team refines and concentrates the fat, removing any impurities, such as blood or water.
5. Fat transfer. Using a special syringe, the cosmetic surgeon injects the fat concentrate into the tissue layers of your breasts. Your doctor often marks multiple tiny entrances in the lower fold of your breast and around your areola.
6. Dressing. Your doctor dresses the incisions of the donor site and wraps your breasts to promote healing.
7. Observation. The medical team monitors you until you’re cleared to leave. You need someone to drive you home.

Your fat transfer to breasts procedure takes three to four hours, depending on the amount of fat harvested. Your New York City cosmetic breast surgeon uses the latest medical technology for improved safety and success.

What Can I Expect after Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation?

Recovery starts immediately after the procedure. While the final results take about six months as the fat cells settle in your breasts, you notice an immediate difference in their size. The final results last for the rest of your life, and they don’t require special care. After the procedure, you can expect:

• Pain and soreness.
• Surgical bra.
• Rest.
• Medications.
• Loose clothing.
• Follow-up appointments.

Pain and soreness.

You may feel some discomfort, but you can manage it with over-the-counter pain medication. Avoid touching or rubbing the treated area for at least a week.

Surgical bra.

Rest and avoid strenuous physical activity for the first few days after the procedure. Applying ice packs to the treated area helps reduce swelling and discomfort.

Rest.

You can likely return to work and normal activities after a week, although you may still experience some swelling and bruising. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and liberally apply sunscreen on the treated area when going outside.

Medications.

Swelling and bruising should subside within a few weeks. You may still experience some numbness or tingling in the treated area, but this resolves on its own.

Loose clothing.

You can expect to see the full results of the procedure within six to 12 months. The results of AccuTite can last for several years, although your results vary.

Follow-up appointments.

Before you leave, you make an appointment with your plastic surgeon to review your recovery.

Dr. Shokrian at Millennial Plastic Surgery is available during your recovery. If you notice excessive bleeding, swelling, pain or an infection, call the practice immediately. Expect your breasts to shrink a little after the breast fat transfer, both from decreasing swelling and from fat absorption, which sometimes occurs.

Your surgeon lets you know what you can start eating again, but most people go back to eating regularly after surgery. Drink plenty of fluids unless otherwise told not to by your doctor. Upset stomachs are common after any surgery so stick with a neutral diet if you begin to experience nausea with food like chicken, rice, bananas and tea. 212-421-7123
