There is no doubt that effort to find new ways of aesthetic surgery was started more than 100 years ago. Transplanting body fat for breast augmentation started in the early 1900s by using fat injections to augment breast size. Soon it was found that the solution is not the perfect one. The fat injected soon became absorbed back into the body. As a result, the breasts not only became lumpy but also started having infections and swellings very commonly.
The research continued and another cosmetic surgery procedure called autologous fat transplantation or micro-lipoinjection was introduced. This procedure allows fat to be removed from one area of the body and used to enhance another. So unnecessary fat from some part of the body (belly, thighs etc where extra fat accumulates) could be used for breast augmentation or breast enhancement. This method of increasing breast size worked with very little side effects.
Is there any advantage of fat transfer over plastic surgery?
Saline or silicone breast implants are good but here are some advantages over plastic surgery for using fast transfer procedures for breast augmentation:
1. Saves cost especially when done with another procedure, typically liposuction.
2. Less (almost no) pains because fat is injected into the breast tissue.
3. No chances of allergic reaction because fat is taken from the patient's own body. There are hardly any cases of complications seen with the complaints of infections or complications as a result of taking fat from other part of the body. It is completely autologous. As no foreign materials are introduced into the body that may cause rejection.
4. The procedure work and lasts from 3 years to life time. This is better when compared with other methods.
What are the disadvantages?
This depends a lot on the skills of the surgeon. One disadvantage of fat transfer breast augmentation is that the results are unpredictable and may require several sessions to achieve the desired results. 40% of the fat cells typically remain after an injection.
Therefore, the surgeon must perform an evaluation to determine if the patient has reached the desired level of enhancement once the procedure is complete. So be sure to consult a good experienced surgeon if you are planning for breast augmentation via fat transfer.
Who should go for this procedure?
There is no age limit. However it is recommended for the woman above 22. Since the procedure is very natural and carries almost no side-effects, it is safe and long lasting.
Who can do fast transfer?
All good aesthetic surgery specialists do fast transfer these days. It is becoming more and more common these days in US and Europe. Only in Orange County, Newport Beach US, there are more than 10 clinics offering these services. I however warn you to be sure to go the experts.
So, you see how interesting it is to use your own body material to re-shape your body and make you look attractive. Breast segmentation and breast shape enhancement has never been so naturally possible.
