25, 32B, C/D goal – could I achieve fuller round teardrop breast with a fat transfer?
Answer: 25, 32B, C/D goal – could I achieve fuller round teardrop breast with a fat transfer? (Photos)
Sep 25, 2023
Hi Kcol97,
Thank you for the question. While the results of fat transfer to the breast can vary depending on the individual characteristics of the patient, I generally tell my patients that they can expect to maintain approximately 1/2 to 1 full cup size increase long term. This depends on not only how much donor fat can be harvested for grafting, but also how much recipient tissue you have to accept the graft. Based on your pictures, I would judge that you are currently a small B cup and…
Which is the safer option – Brazilian butt lift or butt implants?
Answer: Which is the safer option – Brazilian butt lift or butt implants?
Sep 25, 2023
Hi madisonvvl,
Based on your BMI, you will likely achieve a more substantial result from intramuscular gluteal implants. That being said, in cases like yours, I generally also liposuction the lower back/love handles during the same procedure in order to obtain enough fat to perform a mini-bbl in addition to the implant. This allows me to camouflage the edges of the implant and fill out your “hip dips” to enhance the result. As always, it is best to consult with a BE/BC plastic surgeon…
Will I be okay doing the total body enhancement/red light therapy if I have butt & breast implants?
Answer: Will I be okay doing the total body enhancement/red light therapy if I have butt & breast implants?
Sep 25, 2023
Hi gentle497619,
Thank you for the question. Once you have completely recovered from surgery, there should be no contraindication to redlight therapy or total body enhancement. As always, be sure to check with your individual surgeon for any postoperative questions before changing or adding to your routine. Hope this helps!
Is it possible to do awake fat graft for 100cc only of fat? Above breast implant?
Answer: Is it possible to do awake fat graft for 100cc only of fat? Above breast implant?
Sep 21, 2023
Hi munirah97x,
It is certainly possible to perform breast fat grafting while awake using only local anesthesia and oral medication. 100-150cc is a conservative amount of fat to be grafted, and should be able to be safely done superficially to your breast implant if performed by a qualified plastic surgeon. Hope this helps!
Butt augmentation revision for bigger implant size?
Answer: Butt augmentation revision for bigger implant size?
Sep 20, 2023
Hi Augmentation233821,
Thank you for the question. You are correct in that it is generally possible to increase the butt implant size during revision surgery. I place butt implants intramuscularly, which means that I will generally only place an implant that allows me to close the muscle without tension over the implant. Over time, these muscle fibers stretch and a scar capsule forms. This enables placement of a larger implant during the second surgery, while still allowing for a tension…
