Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation

• Step 1. Fat tissue is liposuctioned from the patient’s thigh, hips or stomach.

• Step 2. Half the tissue is processed to extract stem cells.

• Step 3. Stem cells are combined with the remaining fat tissue to form a cell enhanced tissue graft.

• Step 4. The graft is injected into the patients breast.

Even though you may think you have more than enough fat, this procedure depends on fat survival rates. Basically, after the fat is harvested, they then need to be purified and then put back into your body. Due to the procedure and purification, fat survival rates actually depend on the individual as all the fat cells that were harvested wouldn’t survive the purification process. We will now take a closer look at each aspect of the procedure.

Once the fat has been removed through liposuction from your stomach or thighs, it then needs to be cleaned or purified. Traditionally, this is done through centrifugation, but this particular method actually destroys a lot of fat cells. As a result, purification can be done through Lipivage or Puregraft and these two technologies actually help to reduce fat cell death so that more is available for injection into the breasts.

After purification is done, the doctor then needs to re-inject the fat cells into the breasts. However, its is extremely important that great care is taken when doing so. Basically, they need to be injected and spread in very thin layers across the area of each breast. If too much fat is injected, then complications and various issues may arise. This is known as grafting fat cells and it does take quite some time to do. Once that is complete, the procedure is done and you will have larger breasts.

There are many advantages of this particular procedure than any other for breast augmentation. One of the major ones is that your breasts will look and feel natural and it will be harder, if not impossible to detect that they were augmented. However, with silicone implants, these are quite easy to detect. Also, with silicone implants, you will have some fine scarring. However, with fat transfer, there would be very little and in many cases, no scarring. You will also be able to get rid of stubborn fat you may have on your body and since you are using your own body fat, there will be a significantly lower risk of contamination and infection.
