Benefits of Breast Fat Transfer in Los Angeles
Permanent Results
Unlike traditional implants, breast fat transfer augmentation won’t need replacement after 10 years. It’s a life-long enhancement.
Better Shaping
This procedure allows your Younique surgeon to youniquely shape your enhancement for the best results.
2-for-1
This type of breast augmentation uses liposuction to remove the necessary amount of fat cells from areas where you don’t want the fat!
Consultation
It starts with a personal consultation with your trained and licensed Younique provider. During this one-on-one, they’ll discuss your concerns, your goals for treatment, and your medical history. If your provider determines that breast fat transfer surgery is the best option, your surgery can be scheduled and you’ll be filled in on the pre-surgery preparation details.
Procedure
First, you’ll be put under general anesthesia. Once you’re prepared, Dr. Youssef removes fat from unwanted areas such as the thighs or hips using a small cannula. Once the fat is removed, it is harvested and injected into the breasts. These small injections are made near blood vessels to ensure permanency and growth. Breast fat transfer in Los Angeles typically takes longer than a breast augmentation with implants since fat needs to be removed first.
Recovery
Recovery after breast fat transfer is similar to the recovery time experienced by liposuction patients. You will wear body compression garments for about 2 weeks over the areas from which the fat was removed. Most patients are able to return to their normal activities within a few days after the procedure.

When is breast fat transfer a better choice for breast augmentation?
Breast fat transfer is usually a more suitable choice for women who want to make a subtle change to their appearance, like those who want to go up a single cup size, or for patients who have issues with their current breast implants. For women who want a more noticeable or dramatic breast augmentation, breast implants are a better option.
Also, some women’s body types and shapes attain a more natural-looking enhancement from breast fat transfer in Los Angeles. Women with smaller frames or who exercise quite a bit may have concerns that regular implants would look unnatural for their figure. Because breast fat transfer augmentation is more subtle, these women can achieve lovely results!
How long will my augmentation last?
The fat that is transferred must survive in its new location. It will need to establish new blood supplies and receive nourishment. Generally speaking, about 50% of the fat doesn’t survive this process, and your body naturally flushes that from your system.
The fat that does survive is permanent. Because not all of the fat that is transferred stays, a second procedure may be required after healing to fully achieve your goals.
