What is a Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation?

A Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation uses your body’s natural fat to change the size and shape of your breasts. Instead of using implants, this method uses liposuction to remove extra fat from areas like your thighs, abdomen, or flanks. The fat is then purified and injected into the breasts to achieve a fuller, more natural look.

It also has the added benefit of contouring the areas where the fat is removed, giving your body a more balanced and sculpted appearance overall. Since the procedure uses your own fat, there’s a reduced risk of allergic reactions, and the results can look and feel more natural than traditional implants. However, it’s ideal for those who have enough fat to transfer and are looking for a moderate increase in breast size.

What Are the Benefits of a Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation?

Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation’s benefits are specific and tailored to individuals looking for a natural and balanced enhancement. Here’s a more detailed breakdown of how the transformative procedure has helped our Beverly Hills & Los Angeles fat transfer patients.

  • The most significant advantage is the natural look and feel of the breasts post-procedure. Since the fat comes from your own body, it closely mimics the texture and movement of natural breast tissue, making it difficult to tell the difference between the augmentation and your original breast structure.
  • The procedure enhances the breasts and slims down areas where fat is removed. Common donor areas include the abdomen, thighs, and love handles. This means you get the benefit of a more sculpted body contour while increasing breast volume.
  • Traditional breast implants carry risks such as rupture, leakage, or capsular contracture (where scar tissue forms around the implant, causing hardness). Fat transfer eliminates these risks, making it a safer option for long-term results without the need for implant maintenance or replacement surgeries.
  • The surgeon can precisely control the areas where fat is injected to improve breast symmetry and shape. This leads to a more refined, tailored result, especially for those looking for a modest enhancement rather than a dramatic size increase.
  • The recovery from fat transfer is generally smoother than that of implant-based surgery. You’ll experience some swelling and bruising at both the donor and recipient sites, but since there are no large incisions, the healing process is typically quicker, and many patients report less post-operative discomfort.

For individuals wanting a subtle, natural-looking enhancement without the complications of synthetic implants, fat transfer breast augmentation is a great option. However, it’s best suited for those with enough fat to transfer and seeking a moderate increase in breast size, usually around one cup size.

Who Are the Best Candidates For a Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation?

The best candidates for Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation are individuals who are looking for a natural, subtle enhancement in breast size and have sufficient body fat for harvesting. Those wanting to receive a fat transfer breast augmentation must meet the following criteria:

  • The desire for a natural look and feel
  • Adequate fat for harvesting
  • Has good skin elasticity
  • No significant sagging
  • At a stable weight
  • Wanting to avoid implants

You’re likely a good candidate for Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation if you fit these criteria. However, a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon is essential to determine if this procedure aligns with your aesthetic goals and body type.

What’s the First Step?

The first step in your fat transfer breast augmentation journey at Motykie Plastic Surgery is to book your consultation at our practice conveniently located in the Beverly Hills & West Hollywood area. During this consultation, you’ll meet with a highly skilled surgeon who will assess areas of your body where fat can be harvested, such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks. They’ll evaluate your overall health, skin elasticity, and breast structure to determine if you’re an ideal candidate for the procedure.

You’ll also discuss your desired breast size, shape, and contour, and the surgeon will guide you through realistic expectations based on your body type.

What to Expect on the Day of Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation Surgery

During a fat transfer breast augmentation in Beverly Hills, the main focus is on two key steps: harvesting and grafting fat. First, the surgeon performs liposuction to extract fat from areas of the body with excess, such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks. Tiny incisions are then made, and a cannula is inserted to suction out the fat. This process is crucial, as the fat needs to be harvested without damaging the cells to ensure the best possible survival rate once transferred.

Once the fat is removed, it goes through a purification process. This involves spinning the fat in a centrifuge to separate healthy fat cells from any other components, such as blood or oils. Only the healthiest, most viable fat cells are selected for reinjection.

The purified fat is then injected into the breasts using a series of small, precise injections. The surgeon layers the fat evenly in the breasts to ensure smooth, natural contours. This careful placement not only enhances volume but can also correct asymmetry and improve the overall shape of the breasts. The entire process is delicate and requires an expert hand to create natural, long-lasting results without irregularities.

Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation Recovery

Recovery from fat transfer breast augmentation is typically smooth, with most patients experiencing minimal discomfort compared to traditional implants. After surgery, swelling and bruising are common in both the breast and donor areas. Compression garments are usually worn on the liposuction sites to help manage swelling and support healing. Light activities can be resumed within a few days, but avoiding strenuous exercise and heavy lifting for about 4-6 weeks is crucial. Final results may take 3-6 months to develop as the body heals fully and the transferred fat stabilizes.

How Much Does a Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation Cost in Beverly Hills, CA?

The price of a fat transfer breast augmentation in the Beverly Hills and greater Los Angeles area typically ranges from $8,000 to $10,000. This can vary based on the surgeon’s expertise, the extent of liposuction required, and the clinic or facility where the procedure will be performed. Additionally, since fat transfer breast augmentation involves both liposuction and fat grafting, these steps contribute to the overall cost. In some cases, revisions or combination procedures (like a breast lift) may also affect the final price.
