What is Fat Transfer to Breasts?
Fat transfer to breasts, also called autologous fat grafting or natural breast augmentation, is a procedure that uses liposuction to harvest fat from one area of your body and inject it into the breasts to increase size, improve shape, or correct asymmetry. This technique provides natural, subtle enhancement without implants or foreign materials. While the size increase is more modest than implants (typically one cup size or less), the results look and feel completely natural, with the added benefit of body contouring from the liposuction donor sites.
The Procedure
Fat transfer to breasts is performed under general anesthesia or sedation and takes 2-3 hours. First, liposuction is performed on donor areas with adequate fat (typically abdomen, thighs, flanks, or back) using gentle techniques to preserve fat cell viability. The harvested fat is carefully processed and purified to concentrate healthy fat cells. Finally, the purified fat is meticulously injected into multiple layers and locations throughout the breasts using small cannulas, creating natural volume and shape. Strategic placement is crucial for optimal fat survival and natural results.
Ideal Candidates
Ideal candidates desire modest breast enhancement (1 cup size or less), have adequate body fat for harvesting (typically BMI 22+), want natural results without implants, are seeking to correct mild asymmetry or contour irregularities, or desire body contouring in donor areas. Good candidates are in good overall health, maintain stable weight, have realistic expectations about modest volume increase, are non-smokers, and understand that some fat reabsorption is normal. This procedure suits those wanting natural enhancement or who cannot or prefer not to have implants.
Benefits
- Natural breast enhancement using your own tissue
- No foreign materials or implants required
- Modest size increase (typically 1 cup size)
- Improved breast shape and contour
- Body contouring benefit from liposuction
- Natural look and feel
- No implant-related complications
- Can correct asymmetry or irregularities
Risks and Complications
Risks
- Fat reabsorption (typically 20-40% of transferred fat)
- Calcifications or cysts from fat necrosis
- Asymmetry in fat take between breasts
- Lumps or firmness from fat necrosis
- Infection at injection or liposuction sites
- Changes in breast sensation
- Interference with mammogram interpretation
- May require multiple sessions for desired volume
Important Considerations
- Results more modest than implants (1 cup size typical)
- Not all transferred fat survives (expect 60-80% retention)
- May need multiple sessions for desired volume
- Requires adequate body fat for harvesting
- Weight fluctuations affect breast size
- Must wait 6 months between sessions
- Inform radiologists about fat grafting during mammograms
- Not suitable for those wanting significant size increase
