Fat transfer to the breasts—or fat breast augmentation—is becoming an increasingly popular option for people looking to enhance their breasts. Using fat from the patient’s body is one of the most natural looking and feeling breast augmentation options. However, many people worry that fat transferred into the breasts is not permanent. Let’s look at the question, “How long does fat transfer last in the breasts?”
Immediately following the fat transfer, some fat will not survive. This is expected and Dr. Sessa accounts for this by transferring a little extra fat. From there, once the new fat establishes a blood supply, it is like all the other fat in your body. It is susceptible to loss, but generally, remains a permanent fixture.
If you lose a large amount of weight, the transferred fat could be affected. Age may also impact the volume of the breasts, but this is true with traditional breast implants as well. It should be noted that a fat transfer does result in subtler results than breast implants most of the time.
