Implants are not the only option for women who want fuller, shapelier breasts. At Arizona Aesthetic Associates Plastic Surgery in Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Gilbert, AZ we perform fat transfer breast augmentation to add volume and shape to your breasts using your own natural tissue. Breast fat transfer can be done for breast augmentation or for breast reconstruction.
Rest assured that we deliver some of the best looking results in breast fat transfer in Scottsdale and surrounding areas.
Fat transfer breast augmentation is a procedure that involves taking fat from various areas of the body where we may have excess fat and then injecting the fat into the breasts for to increase size and shape of the breasts. This technique has the double benefits of reducing and contouring areas of excess fat where the fat is taken from and enhancing the breasts in the same procedure.
The procedure uses gentle liposuction to harvest fat from areas of the body where there may be extra fat. This harvested fat is then separated from the liposuction fluid and is then gently injected into the breasts to add shape and volume and/or to improve symmetry.
This procedure is a viable alternative for women who want larger breasts without implants. This procedure will produce a more modest increase in breast size than can be achieved with implants, but the procedure can be repeated to gain additional volume and size.
The surgeon chooses a donor site with excess fat, such as the tummy, thighs, or love handles. Fat is harvested from the area using a special liposuction technique that helps preserve the living fat cells. The harvested fat is processed and purified to create higher stem cell concentrations.
After the fat is purified, our surgeon meticulously injects hundreds of individual fat droplets into the breasts using an instrument called a cannula. This technique helps prevent bleeding in the tissues to better preserve the life of the fat cells. The transferred fat is incorporated into the existing adipose (fatty) tissue, enlarging and reshaping the breasts.
Fat transfer (also known as fat grafting) is not recommended for women who want a significant increase in breast volume and projection all in one surgery. It may be a good option for women who want to correct moderate asymmetry or achieve a moderate increase in breast size in one surgery. Breast fat transfer can also be used to correct and improve breast reconstruction.
During your consultation with one of our board-certified plastic surgeons, you will together establish what you hope to achieve from your breast fat transfer in Phoenix.*
Typically, an increase of one cup size can be achieved in a single fat transfer breast augmentation procedure. However, multiple fat grafting procedures can be done over a period of several months to achieve greater degrees of enhancement.
After a fat grafting procedure, some of the transferred fat cells are absorbed by the body. However, many patients retain a large quantity of the transferred fat cells. Our surgeons at Arizona Aesthetic Associates Plastic Surgery use advanced techniques for maximum fat cell survival.
Those cells that survive continue functioning as normal fat cells for long lasting results. Patients also benefit by slimming areas of the body where the fat is removed from. Once the fat cells are gone, they are gone for good.
Increasing the size of the breasts with natural fat grafting appeals to some women as much less invasive alternative to breast implant surgery.
