When we think of breast enhancement, most people immediately envision breast implants. The old-school “boob job.” But there is another procedure gaining popularity that is known for its natural appearance: fat transfer. This unique method relocates the patient’s unwanted fat from a problem area directly to their breasts. The result is bigger breasts and improved shape. Fat transfer to the breasts presents several advantages over traditional implants. At Aesthetic and Cosmetic Surgeon in Los Angeles, we perform Awake VASER Liposuction with fat transfer to the breasts as our preferred method of breast augmentation. We are consistently pleased by our patients’ enthusiasm over their natural-looking breast enhancement procedure. Here are some of the things they rave about in the wake of breast surgery:

The Natural Look and Feel

Perhaps the most universal source of enthusiasm among our patients is how natural their breasts look and feel after augmentation. There are a few different types of implants, and a few different approaches to breast implant surgery. Despite the variance, they all tend to enhance breast size while suffering from a stiff, unnatural look. Fake breasts also feel different to the touch. Fat graft breast augmentation uses the patient’s own tissue. The fat injections are indistinguishable in feel and movement from real breast tissue. This type of augmented breasts feel and appear natural, yielding a classy and beautiful body contour.

Dual Benefits: Body Liposuction and Breast Enhancement

When selecting fat transfer for breast augmentation, patients experience a two-pronged improvement to their body shape. The process starts with Awake VASER Liposuction, which comprises the gentle elimination of excess fat from specific problem areas. Top targets for fat harvesting liposuction procedures include the abdomen, thighs, flanks, legs and back. Removing stubborn fat from your silhouette yields a more sculpted, defined figure, and provides the fat required in a natural breast enhancement procedure. This procedure works simultaneously as a targeted liposuction and as breast augmentation. These pieces work together to produce not just enhanced breasts, but a more attractive overall figure.

Reduced Risk of Complications

Silicone implants come with risk of capsular contracture, implant leakage, rupture, rejection, allergic reaction and other complications. A Breast fat transfer procedure doesn’t invite any of these issues. Allergic reaction and rejection are impossible because your own body’s fat is being used. And since no other foreign material is used, there are minimal instances of infections. Awake VASER Liposuction fat transfer is a safer choice when it comes to breast augmentation.

Minimally Invasive with Quick Recovery

The Awake VASER Liposuction with fat transfer to breasts procedures done at Aesthetic and Cosmetic Surgeons in LA are minimally invasive. The liposuction portion of the procedure is very shallow: the fat layer under the skin is melted and dissolved with ultrasonic waves before being removed. Patients experience reduced pain, inflammation, and bruising than in other Liposculpture methods. Once the fat has been extracted, it goes through a purification process. Then, fat injection takes place. Healthy fat cells are injected into specifically targeted parts of the breast, and voila, breast enhancement complete. The whole surgery is done under local anesthesia, which is considerably safer than general anesthesia. These awake procedures also call for shorter recovery periods than procedures that require general anesthesia.

Long-Lasting, Natural Results

One advantag of fat transfer to breasts is the permanence of the result. Breast implants should be replaced or removed every 10-15 years. The results of Awake VASER liposuction fat transfer last as long as you do not gain or lose significant amounts of weight. The fat cells that incorporate into the existing breast tissue become permanent. The fat harvested and transplanted into your breasts will grow old with your body.

Customizable and Personalized Enhancement

Every pair of breasts is unique. Breast fat injections allow patients to enhance the breasts they have, instead of giving them stiff, cookie-cutter fake boobs. When you get this procedure done at a low-volume, boutique practice like Aesthetic and Cosmetic Surgeons, we hear your vision, study your body and customize a procedure to achieve your goals. The result are beautifully-shaped breasts, an increase in fullness, and about a cup size increase.

Conclusion

Awake VASER liposuction fat transfer has several advantages over conventional implants. The patuents that undergo this treatment come out with larger breasts that look and feels natural. The surgery is minimally invasive, has fewer complications and patients heal faster. It also comes with the dual benefit of body contouring from liposuction and breast enhancement, and is a fully customizable procedure. There are among the primary reasons that so many patients are choosing fat transfer for their breast augmentation surgery.
