Enhance your feminine curves using natural fat
Fat transfer breast augmentation is a procedure that uses your body’s own fat to enhance the size and shape of your breasts. Dr. Slack carefully harvests fat from areas like the abdomen or thighs, then refines and injects it into your breasts for a natural, fuller look. This technique offers a more subtle, organic enhancement compared to implants, providing beautiful, long-lasting results. You’ll not only enjoy a more feminine silhouette, but also the added benefit of slimming down problem areas, such as the abdomen.

What can I expect during the consultation?
During your consultation with Dr. Slack, you’ll discuss your goals, concerns, and medical history. Dr. Slack will assess your body shape, breast size, and areas where fat can be harvested. You’ll explore options for fat transfer breast augmentation, and Dr. Slack will explain the process, potential risks, and expected outcomes. Together, you’ll create a customized plan that aligns with your vision for your body. Dr. Slack will also answer any questions, ensuring you feel well-informed before moving forward with your procedure.
What happens during the fat transfer breast augmentation procedure?
During the fat transfer breast augmentation procedure, Dr. Slack will begin by carefully harvesting fat from areas of your body, such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks. This is done through liposuction, using small, discreet incisions to minimize scarring. Once the fat is collected, it is purified and prepared for injection. Dr. Slack will then strategically inject the fat into your breasts to create a fuller, more natural shape that complements your curves. The procedure typically takes a few hours.
What can I expect during recovery after fat transfer breast augmentation?
After your fat transfer breast augmentation, you can expect some swelling, bruising, and tenderness in the treated areas (where the fat was harvested) and your breasts. For the first few days, you’ll need to rest and follow Dr. Slack’s instructions carefully. You may experience mild discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medication. Compression garments will be recommended for the harvested areas to minimize swelling and promote healing.
Most patients return to light activities within 1-2 weeks, but you should avoid strenuous exercises or heavy lifting for about 4-6 weeks. Dr. Slack will provide a detailed recovery plan to help you heal smoothly. Over time, the swelling will subside, and the fat that successfully integrates will provide long-lasting, natural-looking results.
Will my results look and feel natural?
Yes, your breasts will look and feel natural after fat transfer breast augmentation. Since the procedure uses your own body’s fat, the results will have a soft, organic feel that mimics the natural texture of breast tissue. The volume and shape will enhance your natural curves without implants, providing a subtle improvement. Dr. Slack’s expert technique ensures that the fat is carefully injected for smooth contours, ensuring your final results are undetectable.
How much fat is needed for fat transfer breast augmentation?
The amount of fat needed for fat transfer breast augmentation depends on your desired results and the available fat in areas like the abdomen, thighs, or flanks.
Most patients require 200 to 500 cc of fat per breast to achieve noticeable volume increases. However, some patients may need less or more, depending on their specific goals and body type. It’s important to note that not all of the transferred fat will survive. Typically, about 30-50% of the fat may be absorbed by the body over time. Because of this, plastic surgeons often overfill slightly to compensate for absorption, ensuring you get the desired results. In some cases, multiple sessions may be recommended to achieve optimal results. Dr. Slack will assess your body and discuss the most suitable plan for achieving your aesthetic goals.
