Using Fat Transfer for Breast Augmentation

Girl In Beige Bra Perfect Shape Form Line Curves Chest Raising Hands Up 300x200A fat transfer, also referred to as fat grafting or autologous fat transfer, is a surgical procedure performed in order to enhance the appearance of certain areas of the body. This procedure involves removing extra fat from one area of the body and injecting it into another area that needs enhancement. One of the most popular uses for this type of surgery is breast augmentation. By transferring fat from one area of the body to another, women can achieve larger, fuller breasts without having to undergo invasive surgeries like breast implants. Dr. Kimberly Carpin of Webster, TX, is a professional that offers this treatment as an alternative to traditional implants.

What Risks Are Associated With Fat Transfers?

Fat transfers are generally considered safe and effective procedures when performed by board-certified plastic surgeons who have extensive experience with this technique. However, there are some risks associated with this type of surgery which you should be aware of prior to making a final decision. These risks include breast asymmetry, lumpiness of the breasts, bleeding, and infection.

Are There Any Side Effects Associated With Fat Transfers?

Like other surgical procedures, you might experience some side effects after getting a fat transfer. Some of these side effects can include bruising and swelling, which typically fade within several weeks. Other possible side effects include tenderness or discomfort in the treated area that should also resolve on its own over time. If you notice any other symptoms after your treatment, contact Dr. Kimberly Carpin right away to schedule an appointment for further evaluation.

What Should I Expect From My Fat Transfer Procedure?

Breast augmentation with transfer starts with a consultation visit with Dr. Kimberly Carpin and her team. During this time, you and your surgeon will discuss your treatment goals and medical history. You will also receive a physical examination of the treatment area to help determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure.

If you decide to move forward with fat transfers, Dr. Kimberly Carpin will take some excess fat tissue from another part of your body using liposuction techniques. This process can be performed on almost any region of the body that contains unwanted or excessive fat. Some common areas include the abdomen, thighs, arms, hips, and buttocks. She may then clean and purify the extracted fat before injecting it into your breasts to improve volume and size.
