Breast Fat Transfer is a gentle way to make your breasts bigger. With breast fat transfer, they fix the shape of the breast using fat from your own body. Doctors take some extra fat from places like your stomach or legs and put it into your breasts. This process helps your breasts look fuller and more natural.
You'll need about 2 to 3 weeks to start feeling much better, though it takes a bit longer, a few months, to completely heal.
Staying for about a week or so after your surgery is a good idea so your doctor can make sure everything is going well.
You can usually go back to work in about a week or two, depending on what you do for a living.
You can get back to light exercises in a couple of weeks, but wait about 6 weeks before doing anything heavy or intense.
You'll notice some changes right away but expect to see the real results after about 3 to 6 months.
Skip any tough physical stuff, like lifting heavy things or intense workouts, for the first 6 weeks.
Eating healthy is key. Drink lots of water and stay away from salty foods to help keep swelling down.
In your first visit, the doctor will check you out and talk about what you want from the procedure. This is a great time to ask anything you might be curious or worried about.
You'll need to lay off some medicines and stop smoking before the surgery. Your doctor will give you all the details you need to prep.
When it's time for the surgery, the doctor will take some fat from other parts of your body. The surgeon will clean the fat up, and carefully put it into your breasts, and make sure they look good and natural.
You'll have a check-up a few days after your surgery to see how you're doing. There'll be more visits over the next few months to keep an eye on your healing.
Most people who have this treatment end up really happy with it. About 85% of the fat stays where it's supposed to, giving you lasting results. It's nice because you can slim down where you had too much fat and boost your breast size at the same time.
