Are you dreaming of fuller, more youthful breasts without the risks of implants? Our Atlanta Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation offers a natural, personalized approach to breast enhancement. By using your own body fat, you can achieve a subtle, natural-looking result that complements your unique beauty.
Whether we’re performing extensive, delicate reconstructive surgery or one of the many simple, in-office procedures we offer, Dr. Nicholas Jones and the team at Nip & Tuck Plastic Surgery are passionate about outstanding results. We strive for not only great cosmetic outcomes but also incredible patient comfort and confidence.
This procedure is a more natural alternative to traditional breast augmentation and does not use silicone implants. Also known as autologous fat transfer or fat grafting, fat transfer breast augmentation uses the patient’s own body fat from other areas and then transplants it into the breasts. Donor areas might include the abdomen, back, or inner thighs. Once the fat is extracted via liposuction, it is purified and then strategically injected into the breasts for an incredibly natural-looking result.
For women, the appearance of the breasts can be important to the sense of confidence and sensuality. For those looking to build confidence and improve the size, shape, and balance of their breasts, along with achieving highly natural-looking results, fat transfer breast augmentation can deliver. With the added positive of fat reduction in other areas of the body in one procedure, this option is an obvious choice for many patients. Our Atlanta, GA, fat transfer breast augmentation patients enjoy an outstanding list of benefits, including:
Patients who are interested in this procedure should be in overall good health and near their goal weight but still with enough subcutaneous fat in one or more donor areas for a successful transfer. Ideal candidates for fat transfer breast augmentation are those looking for a subtle change in breast size but not a dramatic increase, those who would like to correct uneven breasts, and those who are seeking to avoid artificial implants.
At your personalized consultation, Dr. Jones will discuss your unique goals for breast augmentation or other cosmetic enhancement and learn about your medical history before creating a customized treatment plan. Prior to surgery, labs may need to be completed, and certain medications may need adjustments.
This procedure can be performed under general anesthesia or sedation and generally takes around three to four hours to complete. Dr. Jones will start by making tiny incisions in the skin of the donor area to insert a liposuction cannula, which extracts fat cells for transfer to the breasts. The collected fat is then processed and purified to ensure proper grafting. Small incisions around the breasts are then used for the injection of the refined fat.
While a fat transfer breast augmentation adds volume to the breasts, it does not address sagging or breast ptosis, so many patients opt to combine the procedure with a breast lift or mastopexy. In addition, this procedure does address smaller pockets of fat that will be transferred, but additional liposuction may be necessary to completely address unwanted body fat and sculpt the body. Combining these procedures offers comprehensive results and a single recovery period.
For most patients, recovery takes about seven to ten days, with some bruising and swelling that may persist for a few weeks. Although recovery tends to be slightly easier than with traditional implants, remember that you will also be healing from liposuction, which means there will be two areas that may feel tender and require incision care. Final results may take up to six months to fully develop, and results are permanent.

Risks with this procedure include those possible with most cosmetic surgeries, such as bleeding, infection, or scarring. Serious complications are rare when this surgery is performed by a qualified professional.
For most patients, this surgery is permanent, and results last a lifetime.
In most procedures where liposuction is used, compression garments are a key part of recovery. Whether compression garments are needed after fat transfer breast augmentation will depend on how much fat is removed during each patient’s particular procedure.
Absolutely! This procedure is often combined with other cosmetic procedures, such as breast lifts or body sculpting, for a comprehensive result.
The cost of fat transfer breast augmentation depends on each individual treatment plan and the unique needs of the patient.
