Is Breast Augmentation With Fat Transfer Right For You?

Natural Fat Transfer is a great choice if you want to enhance your breast size without implants, are satisfied with your current body shape, and prefer a subtle increase in volume (up to 1 cup). This technique provides a natural look and feel, giving your breasts a fuller appearance that blends seamlessly with your body.

Liposuction And Fat Transfer

Natural Fat Transfer also offers the added benefit of body contouring. During the procedure, liposuction is used to remove excess fat from areas like the hips, thighs, and abdomen. This fat is then purified and carefully injected into the breasts for a personalized volume enhancement.

It’s important to know that some of the transferred fat will be reabsorbed by the body within the first 6 weeks as it establishes a new blood supply, which may result in a slight reduction in initial volume. Additionally, fat grafting can be combined with breast implants during primary breast surgery to enhance cleavage or used in revision surgeries to correct contour irregularities or volume loss.

Proper Candidates For Natural Fat Transfer

If you’re looking to increase your breast size by more than one cup and want to alter their shape, Dr. Avi Islur may suggest Breast Implant Surgery as the better option. However, if you’re aiming for a more subtle boost of up to one cup size without changing the shape, Natural Fat Transfer could be ideal for you.

For Natural Fat Transfer to be effective, it’s important that you have enough fat in areas like your abdomen or lower back (love handles) for harvesting.

Keep in mind that results with Natural Fat Transfer can vary. Some patients may experience a 20%-40% loss in volume within the first 6 weeks due to natural fat reabsorption. If desired, additional fat grafting sessions can be done to increase volume.

How Much Does Breast Augmentation With Fat Transfer Cost?

The cost of breast augmentation with fat transfer in Winnipeg can vary depending on several factors, such as the surgeon’s experience, the complexity of the procedure, and the specific clinic. On average, you can expect the cost to range from $8,000 to $12,000 CAD. This price typically includes the surgeon’s fees, anesthesia, facility fees, and follow-up appointments.

Frequently Asked Questions About Breast Augmentation with Natural Fat Transfer

The immediate size change from a fat transfer is due to two factors:

1) the added volume from the transferred fat and

2) swelling from the procedure.

When fat is removed from one part of your body via liposuction, it initially lacks a blood supply. For the fat cells to survive, they need to establish a new blood supply to receive oxygen and nutrients. Any fat cells that don’t successfully connect to a new blood supply will be reabsorbed by the body. The fat cells that do regain a blood supply within the first 6 weeks will survive and thrive.

To promote the survival of these fat cells, it’s crucial to avoid putting pressure on the breasts during the first 6 weeks. This means avoiding sleeping on your chest or wearing tight compression bras to ensure good blood flow to the area.

The fat cells that successfully integrate into your breasts after a fat transfer will behave like any other fat cells in your body. This means they will expand with weight gain and shrink with weight loss, but they will not die. Therefore, it’s important to be at or near your ideal weight before undergoing the procedure to help maintain the results.

Smoking or vaping nicotine causes blood vessels to constrict, reducing the blood supply and oxygen needed for the survival of newly transferred fat cells. This can significantly impact the success of fat grafting. To promote optimal fat cell survival, it is crucial to quit all nicotine sources—whether smoking, vaping, or nicotine gum—at least one month before and for several months after the surgery.

No, the good news is you cannot get capsular contracture from Natural Fat Transfer. And there’s no need for implant replacement surgery.

This is not an option unless you have an identical twin.

Yes, your Surgeon can remove your implants, and some of the volume can be replaced with your own fat. Depending on your ideal breast size, you can also replace your old implants with new ones and add a Fat Transfer to enhance the appearance.

Yes, a breast lift can be performed alongside a fat transfer; however, it’s important to note that a breast lift tightens the skin, reducing the available “space” for the transferred fat. This limited space can put extra pressure on the fat cells, potentially leading to a higher rate of fat loss. Your surgeon will evaluate your individual case and discuss whether combining these procedures or staging them separately is the best approach.

Fat grafting has been used for over a decade in breast reconstruction following breast cancer lumpectomy, and extensive studies have shown that it does not increase the risk of breast cancer or interfere with mammograms. Occasionally, fat grafting can lead to the development of oil cysts or fat necrosis, which can be detected through mammograms or MRIs and are distinguishable from breast cancer. It’s important to note that fat grafting may result in minor changes in breast texture, which could require additional mammograms or examinations compared to someone who hasn’t undergone fat grafting.
