Breast Augmentation Fat Transfer: Could Today's Love Handles Be Tomorrow's Boob Job?

Breast Augmentation Fat Transfer: Could Today's Love Handles Be Tomorrow's Boob Job?

Fat Grafting for breast enhancement is still a controversial procedure. Some doctors are using the Brava system which uses negative pressure to enlarge the breast with fat injections.

Fat grafting, while natural, can obscure mammograms as the fat is injected directly into the breast and can mimic suspicious areas on mammograms. The fat will only give a modest increase in size and won't give a "lift" like an implant can do.

Given these limitations, it is save to say that currently breast augmentation with implants is still the time tested procedure of choice.
