NATURAL AUGMENTATION – NO SILICONE NEEDED

FAT TRANSFER BREAST ENHANCEMENT

Our breast enhancement procedure removes a patient’s fat from one part of the body—typically the tummy or thighs—and transfers it to augment the breasts naturally. We refer to it as Up A Cup™, as our AirSculpt® fat transfer to the breasts is best suited for women who want to go up one cup size. Patients remain fully awake as they increase their volume without silicone, saline, or other foreign materials used in breast implants.

How Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation Works

Patients first receive whichever AirSculpt® fat removal or transfer procedure of their choosing. Anywhere from the chin to the ankle can have fat removed through two-millimeter-wide entry points with patients remaining fully awake.

For patients with significant loose skin entering the treatment or those who had a substantial amount of fat removed, AirSculpt® + can be seamlessly performed to improve skin laxity and reduce any sag.

Performed through the same entry points as the AirSculpt® procedure, Renuvion uses a proprietary device to precisely heat and contract the skin using plasma energy derived from helium gas and radiofrequency waves.

This treatment takes as little as 20 minutes to be completed! Patients begin noticing results instantaneously thanks to the rapid collagen production AirSculpt® + stimulates, but final results may take weeks to develop.

Why Choose Fat Transfer for Natural Breast Enhancement?

Unlike breast implants, fat transfer breast augmentation offers a more natural look and feel while avoiding many potential safety concerns. It eliminates the risks associated with foreign materials, such as silicone leakage, capsular contracture, or implant rejection. 

This method also allows patients to remain awake, avoiding the risks of general anesthesia often required with implants. As a result, the healing process is generally quicker, with downtime lasting 48 hours on average for most patients. The fat is injected through tiny incisions that heal without stitches and leave little to no visible scars. 

Beyond enhanced patient safety, fat transfer breast augmentation provides more personalized results. While breast implants come in pre-set sizes and shapes, a fat transfer allows surgeons to sculpt subtle refinements. For example, more fat can be added toward the nipples to enhance shape, or to one breast rather than the other to refine asymmetry.

AirSculpt surgeon Dr. Tabasum Mir explains why fat transfers produce a more natural result than breast implants. Still, much depends on your specific body goals. If you want to enhance your breasts and remove stubborn fat in one procedure, treatments like the Up a Cup™ are right for you. Those without any harvestable fat or patients looking for dramatically large breasts with a more synthetic look make for better implant candidates. Fat transfer results are long-lasting to permanent, whereas implants may need to be removed after five or ten years.
