Fat injection is suitable for ladies seeking a mild to moderate increase in breast volume. It is the best option for ladies who do not want any foreign materials inserted or injected.
Ladies who are very slim may have insufficient fat for significant breast enhancement.
The fat is usually harvested from the thighs or tummy area as fat from these areas gives the best results.
The fat is injected through a small ( < 4mm) incision below the breast using a fine cannula. It is injected in multiple layers, both superficial and deep, enhancing both volume and shape of the breast.
The amount of fat injected varies according to the needs and desires of our patients. It can be as little as 50 mls for subtle shaping or as much as 300 mls for more dramatic volume and contour enhancement.
Depending on the desired result, one to two sessions may be required.
This surgery conducted by plastic surgeon usually takes two to four hours and will not require hospitalisation.
Most of our patients return to work within 2-4 days.
