Fat grafting to breasts offers a subtle, natural solution for patients who want to improve breast shape, symmetry, or feel without relying solely on implants. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. German Newall specializes in this technique that refines the breasts using your body’s own fat.

What is Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation?
Breast fat grafting, often called fat transfer breast augmentation, is a method that involves gently harvesting fat from areas where it’s unwanted—such as the thighs, flanks, or abdomen—then purifying it and carefully injecting it into targeted areas of the breast. It is performed as a stand-alone procedure or to enhance other breast procedures. Unlike traditional breast augmentation using breast implants, fat grafting provides subtle volume enhancement that looks and feels incredibly natural.
The Advantages of a Natural Alternative to Breast Implants
By using your own fat, Dr. Newall creates beautifully balanced breasts while delivering added body contouring benefits in areas where excess fat is removed using liposuction.
Women who choose breast fat grafting appreciate these benefits:
- Enhanced cleavage or fullness in the upper breast
- Softening of visible implant edges
- Improved symmetry
- Subtle volume enhancement
Beyond improving breast appearance, fat grafting also carries regenerative benefits. The transplanted fat is rich in stem cells that can enhance skin quality, tone, and elasticity, making it particularly valuable for women with thinning skin, scarring, or breast tissue damage from previous surgeries or medical treatments.
Your Breast Fat Transfer Recovery & Results
After a few weeks of downtime, breast fat transfer patients typically resume most nonstrenuous activities. Swelling and bruising will gradually subside, revealing your full results over several months. Wearing a compression bra supports healing. Dr. Newall provides detailed postoperative instructions to ensure proper recovery, enhanced comfort, and optimal results.
Because the fat is your own, the results feel very natural. While not all the transferred fat survives long-term, the remaining portion becomes a permanent part of your breast tissue. Since the procedure entails sculpting the donor sites, many patients enjoy the added benefit of a more contoured waist or thighs.

How Much Does Fat Grafting Breast Augmentation Cost?
The cost of the procedure typically depends on the surgeon’s level of expertise and the amount of fat being transferred. Combining your procedure with other breast enhancement, breast reduction or breast revision procedures also impacts overall cost. Dr. Newall provides a detailed price estimate during your personalized consultation. Many patients take advantage of our flexible plastic surgery financing options.
