Non Surgical Breast Enlargement
We appreciate that many of our patients are interested in enhancing the shape and fullness of their breasts but would like to keep a natural profile and are not comfortable with the idea of implants, despite the huge progress that has been made in their manufacture and safety.
So it’s good to know all about what alternatives to breast implants are available and the variety of non-surgical breast enhancement techniques. Suction devices and other ‘natural’ alternatives may be suitable for patients who wish to avoid implants however our expert cosmetic surgeons think you may be disappointed with the results.
Today, many women are opting for a very successful alternative – Fat Transfer, also known as Lipomodelling and a Natural Breast Enlargement. This is less invasive than inserting implants but more effective and long-lasting than other “non-surgical” procedures which do not tend to work. Fat Transfer is an implant-free surgical procedure carried out by MyBreast surgeons in one of our leading hospitals to add volume to an area of the body. This is not suitable for slim patients as you need to have plenty of access fat (Minimum size 10-12).
What is fat transfer augmentation?
Fat is removed from an area of the body where it is in excess and transferred to an area that requires restoration or augmentation, this is designed to improve volume and change proportion and in most cases offers long lasting results.
Breast enlargement with fat transfer is as an alternative to implants and may be used to increase the fullness of the breast by one cup size, balance cases of asymmetrical breasts (uneven breasts) or restore contours in cases of unevenness.
Is fat transfer suitable for me?
A ‘Natural Boob Job’ isn’t right for everyone as you’ll need to be at least a UK dress size 10-12 to qualify. Unfortunately, we cannot consider patients whose body’s do not have sufficient fat resources. Your MyBreast surgeon will agree with you an area where you’d like to harvest fat from and discuss what breast enhancement outcome you may be able to achieve. It’s a win-win procedure. Our team of advisors are here to answer your questions and help you decide whether fat transfer is appropriate for you. Complete a More Information enquiry and we will send you some very simple qualifying questions.
How is the procedure itself done?
The operation involves fat being liposuctioned from one part of the body where it is in excess and injected into another that requires augmentation, this will improve volume and change proportion and offers long lasting results. Fat transfer procedures can be performed under local anaesthesia.
When is the procedure suitable?
Breast enlargement with fat transfer is as an alternative to implants and may be used to balance cases of asymmetrical breasts (uneven breasts) or restore one cup size of volume. Patients who require a small increase in size and present enough fat to transfer from other areas such as the legs or tummy are suitable. Your surgeon will advise you on the best way to proceed and the most suitable approach to reach your desired profile at your consultation.
Is fat transfer used on other parts of the body?
Fat augmentation may also be used as an alternative to facial fillers or implants, and to restore volume in the buttock region.
What is the recovery period?
It’s advisable to take one week off work and not return to normal activity for 6 weeks. It’s important to stop smoking two weeks prior to any type of surgery.
How else can I get a natural breast enlargement?
Breast Enlargement with Fat Transfer is not suitable for patients with a low body mass. For a natural looking breast augmentation, it is now more common for breast implants to be placed under the muscles (dual-plane) to disguise the upper edge of the implant, and there is even an increasing trend towards teardrop shaped “anatomical” implants.
