Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation, A Miraculous Intervention

Despite being regarded as a traditional method, with a real history in this field, silicone implants are no longer required for achieving a higher size for the breasts of a woman. Other advanced methods such as injections of own fat are not preferred and are associated with a smaller risk of complications. The results of a recent study in this field indicated that this method is a viable alternative to regular silicone implants.
There are two basic parts for this intervention, one for harvesting the fat that will be used for enhancing the size of the breasts and another one for the actual augmentation. One of the most important conditions that should be satisfied in order to proceed with the intervention is related to the existence of an area from which fat will be extracted. This is also known as a "donor area" and if the patient does not have excessive fat in any part of the body fat transfer breast augmentation will not be possible.

Most surgeons use advanced medical equipment, such as lasers, for extracting the fat from areas like abdomen, thighs or buttocks. However, there is a limit when it comes to the quantity of fat that should be used in each session. If more than 200 ml are extracted the patient will be exposed to some dangerous risks.

As for the advantages, you should firstly know that fat transfer breast augmentation does not leave any permanent scars and is less traumatic than other similar interventions. The diameter of the incision is only 4cm and the wounds will heal in a very short time. This method can not only increase the size of the breasts, but can also achieve the results of a breast lift intervention.
Finally, another very important aspect is that no foreign material is used, so there is no risk for rejection of fat by the organism. On the other hand, the disadvantages are that patients are only able to see the final result in a few years, while breasts may shrink when they lose weight.
