BREAST LIPOFILLING
Breast fat transfer is a surgical procedure aiming to restore natural fat loss in the chest area.It is an ideal method for achieving a more toned cleavage and reshaping the breasts with a very natural outcome.
What is breast fat transfer?
Breast fat transfer involves the transfer of autologous fat cells from one area of the patient’s body to another, specifically the breasts. This procedure not only improves the appearance of the breasts but also allows for body contouring in certain areas.
By extracting fat cells from one or more donor sites through liposuction and injecting them into the breasts, this technique helps prevent hollow areas and correct premature aging effects.It is important to note that breast fat transfer requires sufficient donor fat, which can be obtained from areas such as the abdomen, hips, or saddlebags.
Why choose breast fat transfer?
Breast fat transfer offers several advantages, including:
-
- A slight and natural increase in breast size
- Correction of deformities, such as tuberous breasts
- Correction of asymmetry
- Restoration of the breasts to their previous state after significant weight loss, pregnancy, or breastfeeding
Breast fat transfer is an excellent technique for achieving a more toned and reshaped décolletage with a highly natural result.
It is important to note that breast fat transfer is not suitable for significant volume increases. However, it can be combined with smaller silicone implants to achieve the desired outcome.
Aesthetic medicine can cater to individual desires and expectations, and your practitioner will guide you based on your specific needs. Therefore, the initial step involves a diagnostic evaluation to determine the feasibility of the procedure and identify suitable donor fat harvesting areas for liposuction.
What does the surgical procedure consist of?
The breast fat transfer procedure involves three main steps:
- Liposuction is performed to remove excess fat from the donor areas.
- The harvested fat is purified and prepared for reinjection.
- The purified fat is carefully reinjected into the breasts to achieve the desired contour.
The intervention lasts from 1 to 4 hours, depending on the number of fat grafts to be performed and the amount of fatty tissue to purify during the operation.The cost of the procedure starts from 4,500 euros.
What are the advantages of breast fat transfer?
Breast fat transfer offers several advantages, including:
- Use of the patient’s own fat, eliminating the risk of rejection or complications associated with foreign substances.
- Minimal scarring due to the use of small incisions (1 to 2 mm) that can be strategically placed within natural body folds, resulting in minimal visible scars.
After the fat transfer:
- Postoperative discomfort is generally less than that experienced with breast implant placement, although mild swelling and bruising may occur during the healing process.
- The final results of the breast fat transfer become noticeable within 3 to 6 months after the surgery, revealing shapely and naturally toned breasts.
- To gain the long-term benefits of the procedure, it is essential to maintain a stable weight, as fluctuations can affect the appearance of the transferred fat.
It is important to note that breast fat transfer does not halt or prevent the natural aging process of the breasts, which may continue to change over time.
With breast fat transfer, you can enjoy the dual benefits of achieving a slimmer waist, flatter abdomen, sculpted thighs, and naturally beautiful breast shape. Say goodbye to concerns about wearing a two-piece swimsuit and embrace a perfect beach body this summer!
