Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Natural Breast Augmentation (Fat Transfer).

Ideal candidates are healthy adults with adequate donor fat, realistic expectations, and non-smokers. We evaluate breast shape, skin quality, and overall health during consultation to determine if fat transfer will achieve desired volume and natural-looking results safely.

Some transferred fat survives permanently, while a portion is reabsorbed. Final volume typically stabilizes after three to six months. With stable weight and healthy lifestyle, results can be long-lasting; touch-up sessions are available if additional volume is desired.

Most patients resume light activities within a few days and return to work in about one week. Bruising and swelling fade over several weeks. Avoid vigorous exercise and heavy lifting for four to six weeks to protect grafted fat and ensure optimal healing.

Incisions are very small for both liposuction and fat injection and typically fade to nearly invisible lines. We place entry points in discreet locations, minimizing visible scarring while achieving improved contour and breast shape.

Risks include infection, fat necrosis, cysts, calcifications, uneven absorption, and asymmetry. Dr. Javaheri minimizes complications through meticulous technique, sterile environment, and careful patient selection. We discuss personalized risk profile and postoperative monitoring during your consultation.

Fat transfer offers natural feel without implants and avoids foreign-body risks, but provides more modest volume increases and sometimes requires staged treatments. Implants deliver predictable larger augmentation. Dr. Javaheri will recommend the best option based on your goals and anatomy.
