Cosmetic surgery is a very popular solution for men and women over age 40 who wish to fight back against the signs of aging and rejuvenate their appearance.

Thanks to ongoing improvements in cosmetic techniques and technology, there are several ways you can combat the signs of aging to help you reshape your body, rejuvenate your face, and boost your self-confidence.

Liposuction

Is Breast Augmentation with Fat Transfer a good alternative to implants?

If you’ve been considering breast augmentation, but are not quite comfortable with having a non-natural substance implanted into the body, you may want to look into the benefits of breast augmentation with fat transfer.

A newer alternative to breast implants, fat transfer (or fat grafting) lets women enhance the appearance of breasts without the concerns that come with saline or silicone implants (such as rippling or rupture). The procedure is considered investigational, and the potential risks are still being evaluated.

During the breast augmentation with fat grafting procedure, the fat cells will be harvested, or removed, from an area such as the thighs. The fat cells will then be injected into the breast tissue through very fine incisions.

Here are a few advantages to breast augmentation with fat transfer:

· Fat grafting uses a natural substance from your own body

· Removal of fat cells from the hips, thighs or tummy can create a slimmer appearance (similar to liposuction)

· Breasts can be shaped precisely using fat cells

· Risk of scarring is minimal since fat cells are implanted through tiny incisions

· The result is very natural-looking

On the downside, this procedure requires more surgical time than breast augmentation with implants and may be performed during multiple procedures. Research is currently being done to determine if fat transfer may interfere with mammography and detection of breast cancer.

How to Choose a Breast Implant

You’ve decided to enhance your contour with breast enlargement, and now it’s time to decide what type of breast implant you should use. Thanks to modern technology and design progress, there are more options today than ever before. The materials, textures and shapes available make it possible for women undergoing breast enlargement to achieve very natural-looking results — and results that truly complement their own unique sense of femininity.

Different Implants for Different Goals

Every woman has a very personal idea of what her perfect breast shape might look like. The breast implant you choose will depend on your specific augmentation goals. During your initial consultation with a cosmetic surgeon, share all of your breast surgery goals and ask for recommendations. Make sure your physician goes over the advantages and disadvantages of various options, so you have a realistic idea of how they perform and can make an informed decision. You may even want to bring in some magazine clipping showcasing your ideal breast contour.

How Do I Choose The Right Size For Me?

At your consultation, your plastic surgeon will be able to help you make an appropriate decision regarding what size implant you should consider. The answer depends on many different factors, but the main component I consider is the dimensions of your current breast. It is logical to use an implant size whose dimensions will match your current breast so that your natural breast tissue can completely cover the implant and help maintain a long-lasting, natural appearing result. Even when staying within your natural breast dimensions, you will find that there will be a range of sizes for you to choose from – so you can truly tailor the operation to your specific desire.

Your Ideal Shape

From an overall standpoint, your breast enlargement surgeon should strive to create a more pleasing breast, paying close attention to shape, balance, and proportion. While it would appear that there are so many different shapes, material, and contours to choose from, I and most other plastic surgeons find that a smooth surfaced, round implant filled with either saline or silicone is your best option. After a comprehensive overview, your cosmetic surgeon can help you choose the implant that will give you the results you’re looking for.

Should You Consider Breast Augmentation?

Breast augmentation is one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures available today. But it’s not for everyone. If you’ve ever considered having surgery to enlarge your breasts, it’s important that you have a realistic picture of the procedure, its benefits and its risks. For starters, candidates should be at least 18 years of age, in good health and ready to spend time researching the procedure. You can start by talking to a skilled breast augmentation surgeon about your enlargement options, your potential results, and safety and recovery information.

What Can Breast Augmentation Do?

Breast augmentation can improve your contour, renew your breast shape and combat sagging. It may be a great choice for women who have had children or are experiencing loss of volume or weakening breast tissue. Breast enlargement for women who have lost volume due to weight loss, pregnancy, aging, etc. can enhance the overall figure and help women achieve a more dynamic, shapely physical appearance.

What Won’t Breast Augmentation Do?

Breast enlargement isn’t a “quick-fix” for negative body image issues. It won’t instantly improve your relationships, dating success, or social interactions, and it won’t improve your physical health like diet and exercise can.
