About Scottsdale Lipo Aug

Scottsdale lipo aug is a procedure that has been taking the medical world by storm. Still relatively new on the market, this procedure involves moving fat cells from one part of the body - like the stomach, buttocks, or thighs - and injecting it into the breasts in order to provide fullness and an increase in size. This procedure has been around in one form or another since 1895, but since the development of liposuction, fat cells are able to be harvested more efficiently, leading to a longer cell survival rate.

The Procedure

Also called fat grafting, this treatment is best reserved for women who want to improve the appearance of their breasts following reconstruction, to correct a pre-operative issue, or to provide a modest, 1 - 1.5 cup-size increase in breast size. Though widespread application of this procedure is still being studied, selected qualified surgeons offer fat grafting in the form of Scottsdale lipo aug for individuals looking for implant-free breast enhancement.

During the procedure, liposuction and breast augmentation are combined in two phases: harvesting and injecting. In the harvesting phase, fat cells are acquired through liposuction methods that can involve laser, ultrasound-assisted, and water-assisted liposuction techniques. After being harvested, the fat cells are processed to remove impurities like anesthetics, lipids, and medicinal fluids. This process is necessary in order to increase the probability of a successful fat transfer and to remove any unwanted materials from appearing in the breasts. Following the processing stage, the fat cells are then injected in pre-selected areas around the breast, in the space between the skin and the breast capsule, and/or behind the breast between the gland and the chest wall. This process allows the surgeon to sculpt the breast while he or she is injecting the fat cells and achieve a beautifully natural result.

Keep in Mind

A point of concern with this procedure is how much fat transfer is needed to really have a lasting effect for the patient. Since some fat cells will be naturally absorbed by the body following the surgery, your surgeon will need to over-inject the breast tissue with the harvested fat so that the surviving cells can leave you with a noticeable difference. Living fat cells fluctuate with weight gain and loss, so your breasts are likely to fluctuate with your weight as well. As with any breast augmentation procedure, it is important to maintain routine breast cancer screenings and to inform your technician that you have had Scottsdale lipo aug.
