If you've always wanted larger breasts but don't like the idea of getting implants, talk to Dr. Ortegon about a natural breast augmentation with the fat grafting technique. Dr. Ortegon can use a special technique to increase the size of your breasts by transferring fat from other areas of your body to your breasts. Not only will your breasts look and feel more natural, but you won't have to worry about some of the complications associated with breast implants, such as rupturing or capsular contracture.
How Natural Breast Augmentation Works
Only some plastic surgeons around the world are skilled to perform a natural breast augmentation procedure using the fat grafting technique. Fat transfer techniques are frequently used to increase volume of the facial tissues or to perform the buttock augmentation procedure, also known as the Brazilian Butt Lift.
Dr. Ortegon can transfer fat that has been harvested from another part of the body into the breast tissue. If you've been considering liposuction of the buttocks, abdomen, or thighs, consider getting a natural breast augmentation procedure in conjunction with the fat removal procedure so that Dr. Ortegon can use the excess fat to enhance your breasts. Dr. Ortegon uses a different liposuction technique to remove fat for harvesting so that the fat cells do not die. Only live and active fat cells will work to enlarge the breasts permanently.
This type of breast augmentation procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia and typically requires very small incisions. You will notice results immediately after your procedure but your body will reabsorb some of the transferred fat cells within about a year. Any remaining fat will stay in the breast tissue permanently and most patients enjoy an increase of half or one full cup size.
