Autologous Fat Transfer
veFor serious breast enhancement that lasts for years, we recommend a silicone implant (not silicone injections) by a plastic surgeon. We can refer you to a plastic surgeon, if needed. But if you are an A-cup and want to up one cup-size, then fat transfer to the breast is useful alternatives. Liposuction techniques and the fat extraction process have improved a lot over the years and graft survival has also improved.
Advanced Liposuction Techniques
Fat transfer involves a liposuction-type surgical procedure. If co-incidentally you happen to be thinking of having a liposuction, then fat transfer to the breasts would be the obvious alternative to Macrolane or a silicone breast implant.
Fat transfer to the breasts with added stem cells (ADRCs or Adiposite Derived Regenerative Cells) can also be done. Proponents of this methods claim that the transferred fat cells survive better with added ADRCs. As with most other things trying to cash in on the word “stem cells” as the miracle regenerative cells, this method lacks rigorous scientific backing. And while we do not completely discount this concept, the machines that extract the stem cells are somewhat dubious. So we do NOT offer this option.
Macrolane is not available in Singapore. Only fat transfer to the breasts.
The Fat Transfer procedure is done together with a liposuction of a large area like the abdomen or the thighs. It is done in a day surgery with an anaesthetist to administer sedation. We use the retro-mammary gland injection technique. The retro-mammary approach ensures that the skin over the entire breasts feel completely normal even immediately after the procedure.
Yet another material used in breast enhancement is Aqualift.
This is not a hyaluronic acid filler and as such we are quite reluctant to touch it.
