Treatment Overview
Breast fat grafting is a procedure that restores volume to the breasts by transplanting the patient’s own fat, harvested from areas such as the abdomen, buttocks, or thighs. Because it uses the patient’s own fat, there is minimal risk of a foreign body reaction or rejection, and the results are characterized by a relatively natural feel and shape. Forever Clinic performs this procedure using a multi-layer micro-fat grafting technique aimed at maximizing survival rates. Conventional fat grafting involved injecting large volumes into a single layer, which could result in an uneven surface or poor survival rates. Multi-layer micro-fat grafting involves evenly distributing small amounts across multiple layers to create natural-looking volume and ensure that fat cells receive a consistent supply of nutrients.
Recommended Audience
- For those who want to add volume using their own fat without implants
- For those seeking a natural feel and shape
- People who have areas where fat can be harvested
- For those who feel uncomfortable with foreign bodies
Treatment Highlights
POINT 01An approach that takes graft survival rates into account
Our goal is to minimize damage during extraction and increase the survival rate through the microfat grafting method.
POINT 02Natural Results
We administer the treatment in small, even doses to ensure a natural-looking surface and volume.
POINT 03Clinical Experience
Medical professionals with clinical experience handle both the design and the procedures.
Treatment Process
STEP 01Design
We design the areas from which fat will be harvested—such as the abdomen or thighs—and plan the procedure.
STEP 02Fat Removal
Fat cells are harvested from the targeted areas while minimizing damage.
STEP 03Fat Purification
Pure fat cells are purified through centrifugation.
STEP 04Fat Grafting
We perform the injection using a two-layer micro-fat grafting technique.
Notes
Both the donor site and the recipient site require post-procedure care. The degree of graft take varies from person to person, so we may recommend additional procedures depending on the case. For a certain period after the procedure, compression and massage must be managed according to the instructions provided during your consultation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Does the transplanted fat remain in place?
The degree to which transplanted fat takes root varies from person to person, so additional procedures may be necessary depending on how the treatment progresses. We will provide more details during your consultation.
Q. From which areas is fat harvested?
Samples are taken from areas such as the abdomen and thighs; specific locations will be discussed during your consultation based on your individual body type.
Q. How is this different from implant-based cosmetic surgery?
Since this method uses the patient’s own fat, the results feel quite natural; the level of volume and other details will be explained and compared during your consultation.
