Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation Procedure
Many women undergo breast augmentation surgery to increase the size of their chest and achieve a fuller figure. However, when it comes to your procedure, there are several critical decisions to make. For instance, you must decide whether to do your augmentation surgery with implants or fat transfer.
A fat transfer breast augmentation in Tulsa offers many of the same benefits as implant surgery. However, the procedure uses fat from your own body, so the results may seem more natural. Fat transfer can be combined with a breast lift (mastopexy). It can also be added to breast augmentation with implants to obtain a more natural appearance or enhance the upper and inner fullness of the breasts. Speak with our experienced surgeon, Dr. Kreitzberg, to learn more about the benefits of this type of breast surgery.
Benefits Of Fat Transfer Compared To Breast Implants
Since the fat transfer approach for breast augmentation uses natural body tissue, a significant benefit of this procedure is the natural-looking results. Specifically, fat transfer augmentation results look and feel more like natural breasts, which may be preferable for some patients.
Additionally, using fat transfer for breast augmentation may minimize risks associated with implants, such as rupture, scar tissue hardening, and allergic reactions. Another significant benefit for many patients is the very small scars with a fat transfer surgery, as the procedure uses injections for augmentation instead of incisions.
Lastly, breast augmentation with a fat transfer goes beyond simply enlarging your chest. It slims other areas of the body where excess fat is taken for the procedure. Many patients have fat taken from places such as the abdomen, flanks, hips, and thighs.
It is important to note that your newly enhanced breasts are still susceptible to aging despite the augmentation. Additionally, your body may reabsorb a portion of the fat in the months after surgery. This surgical approach is best for subtle breast enhancements, typically by one to two bra cup sizes.
Understanding The Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation Procedure
The first step for fat transfer breast augmentation surgery is to remove excess body fat from specific areas using liposuction techniques. Since the surgery is typically an outpatient procedure, general anesthesia and a local anesthetic may be applied to the areas undergoing liposuction.
Dr. Kreitzberg will make small incisions in the target areas and vacuum the excess fat cells from your body. This fat tissue he removes from your body is then purified in a closed system for reinjection.
Next, Dr. Kreitzberg will reinject the body fat into strategic places in your breast tissue for ideal enhancements. This step may require tiny incisions around your breasts. Lastly, any incisions necessary for the transfer and harvesting the tissue are closed using sutures and skin adhesive.
