Pros and Cons of Fat Grafting Breast Augmentation

  • Pro: Incision is minimal, under 4mm, and leaves very little scaring
  • Pro: Quick recovery time of about three days, much faster than silicone implants
  • Pro: It is the perfect procedure for small cosmetic changes to even out both breasts
  • Con: It will usually add no more than one cup size and sometimes two
  • Con: The survivability of the fat graft is unpredictable and may show a loss of up to 30% within two months
  • Con: You may also need a breast lift to support the fat graft
  • Con: The Price may be more expensive than saline implants

What kind of results can I expect?

Following surgery, the breasts will appear initially fuller. Patients can experience a 1-2 cup size increase from the procedure, followed by a decrease in size due to fat loss. It is typical for a 1/3 of the transferred fat to be lost after a month or two after the breast augmentation surgery. After that, you can expect to see the final size and look of your new figure.

The procedure is designed to subtly improve the shape, contour, and fullness to your upper chest. If those are your goals, then this will be an ideal procedure for you

What is the downtime for the procedure?

The usual downtime for this procedure is 2-3 days. Most patients state that the procedure’s liposuction portion is associated with more discomfort than the actual breast transfer procedure. The majority of patients are back to work in 3 days. Mild to moderate exercise is encouraged after the first few weeks, but it must be low impact.

We advise patients to avoid any rigorous jumping or running for two months after the procedure.

Can I wear my regular bra after the surgery?

The doctor will suggest a special bra after the surgery. After a week, you will be able to wear a regular bra.

What is the cost of the procedure?

The procedure’s cost varies with each patient and the number of liposuction areas required to harvest the fat cells. It starts at $6,000 and increases to $10,000, depending on each patient’s different surgical requirements.
