While many women still desire the rounded, voluptuous look of breast implants, many are now choosing to go a more natural route using a simple fat transfer procedure to augment the chest.
Who is a good candidate for fat transfer?
Breast explant performed on its own can leave the chest looking deflated and sagging. That is where the fat transfer procedure can come in handy. If you are a woman who desires fuller, more youthful breasts but you want a natural look without the risk of complications, fat transfer after breast implant removal may be the ideal solution for your goals. This procedure may even take the place of a breast lift without the need for additional scarring. The following characteristics define a good candidate for the treatment:
- Healthy, both emotionally and physically
- Non-smoker, or willing to quit before and after the procedure
- Has a healthy amount of donor fat in the stomach, thighs, hips, or other areas
- Wants to decrease the bust size without returning to pre-implant breasts
- Will be satisfied with an increase of one cup size in the chest
- Is open to body sculpting at the donor sites
- Desires a natural look
- Has a realistic, positive outlook towards their results
- Wants a solution that will last a lifetime
