Fat transfer breast augmentation.

New York (I-Newswire) November 7, 2013 - bodySCULPT is a well-known plastic surgery practice specialized in providing customized breast augmentation in Manhattan, NYC. As an AAAASF-accredited plastic surgery practice, bodySCULPT provides effective and safe breast augmentation procedures for women. The plastic surgeons here utilize advanced techniques to achieve the cosmetic goals of women undergoing breast enhancement surgery. 

bodySCULPT offers the fat transfer breast enhancement option for those women who want to avoid using breast implants. This method is best suited for those patients who have excess fat in other body areas such as the hips, flanks or thighs. Through minimally invasive liposuction, the plastic surgeons extract fat from these body parts; a portion of this is processed and the stem cells are extracted. It is then mixed with the remaining fat tissue and the final mixture is injected into the breasts to provide the desired enhancement. This type of breast augmentation is credited with benefits such as:

• Safe and effective procedure
• Minimal rejection issues
• Minimal side effect, scarring and discomfort
• Speedy recovery

Women who opt for this procedure can enjoy dual benefits of body contouring in the donor site as well as natural-looking breasts. 

A pre-surgical evaluation is made to determine the patient's eligibility for the fat transfer breast augmentation procedure. The plastic surgeons discuss the benefits and risks associated with the surgical procedure so that patients can make an informed decision. The trained staff at the practice provides end-to-end care for patients - surgery through complete recovery. 

Patients who reside outside Manhattan are offered the convenience of virtual consultation and fly -in programs.

This is something of great interest to me and something I'm taking very much into consideration for when I have my next surgery. If I can get away without having an implant to achieve the look I want without breast implants and just having a fat transfer along with an uplift I really will be considering this as an option for myself. 

It is an interesting topic, and something we'd joked about as teenagers, but I would be sceptical. Im sure I read somewhere that its not a permanent procedure, and your body could easily start to break down that fat as it recognises it as being foreign to that area. I cant find proof of that, but it must have stuck in my mind somewhere. I guess I'd have to do more research before considering something like that

Yup, I'd read this too in earlier studies, but the latest studies using a different technique seems to have lowered the risks greatly.

Its something I too need to look further into before making my decision but I'd definitely go for this if it were found to be right 'for me' xx

Sounds like a great option.

I had a fat transfer to my left breast last week, although not in the same way as this and it was through the NHS. 

Personally, I would prefer to have implants as I still think it's early days with not enough studies. None of the studies I have looked at are longitudinal enough to show that these results are long lasting. There are also several types of fat transfer which come with different fat survival rates, as well as other factors which need to be taken into consideration. Also, necrosis, calcification and cysts are things to think about, along with maintaining your weight and ensuring you do the best to not decrease the chances of fat survival, as well as carrying on with top ups.

There is so much to think about and I know you have done plenty of research into it, Cookie. I hope you find one that is right for you. Hopefully there will be more research into it, particularly longitudinal studies that can give you and the rest of us much more reliable information to base our decision on.
