What is Fat Transfer to the Breasts?
Loss of volume in the breasts is a common occurrence, particularly after weight loss or pregnancy. Breast implants are one option to address this, but not everyone is interested in or a candidate for implants. Fat transfer to the breasts – also called fat grafting – is becoming an increasingly popular alternative among women. This treatment takes a small amount of excess fat from one area of the body and administers it into another area that could use additional volume. Houston, TX plastic surgeon Dr. Rafi Bidros incorporates the most advanced liposuction and fat grafting methods available for performing surgery. MyBodyMD is proud to create natural-looking outcomes that last. Contact our trained team to schedule an initial consultation.

MyBodyMD Reviews
Dr. Bidros is absolutely phenomenal! I was SO impressed with his professionalism and knowledge. The office was super organized, clean and efficiently run. Michelle, Mandy, Jackie and Connie are all rock stars.!!! They get things done and are so incredible at their jobs, not to mention classy and beautiful. I will recommend Dr. Bidros to everyone. So easy to talk to and understand. Thank you!!!
Dr Bidros and his entire staff is wonderful, they made me feel so comfortable the very 1st time I meet them, he is the best plastic surgeon I have ever meet and would recommend him highly to anyone needing plastic surgery, his work is awesome.
Dr. Bidros and his staff are truly wonderful. After three bouts with cancer, he brought me through in the most beautiful way. Happier than I’ve been in many years, and I will recommend him every chance I get. He has a wonderful team with him, and they deserve every bit of my thankful respect. I am lucky to have a team of doctors I love, but their staff, not so much. Not so here. It is a joy every step of the beautiful way with his staff, his work, and his practice. I feel blessed my doctors put him at the top of my list. He is helping me feel pretty again!
I would give Dr Bidros a 100 start review if possible. This is my 3 surgery with him each of them great results and after care. His team is awesome all the girls are very sweet. I am a happy patient. Love Dr Bidros he is a great surgeon and person. Would highly recommend to friends and family. Could not ask for a better Dr.
I had my breast reduction with Dr Bidros after doing 6 other consultations. I choose Dr Bidros because of his honesty when answering my questions, addressing ALL of my concerns and even his nurses and office staff are respectful which is HARD to find unfortunately. Fast forward to the day of my surgery, Dr Bidros came in, got me ready, and even reminded that I’m in great hands. After surgery Dr Bidros spoke with my family and kept them in the loop about my care. During my healing process I had an issue, called the office and was able to speak with Dr Bidros which is different from leaving a message and getting a call back within 24 BUSINESS hours especially after having surgery. His bedside manner is also HARD to find!! If you’re searching for a surgeon who’s a perfectionist with amazing office staff give them a try. I searched for months until I found Dr Bidros and I hope this review can help someone who searched long and hard like I did.

How does fat transfer to the breasts work?
During a fat transfer, patients are placed under the appropriate kind of anesthesia. Liposuction is completed via a small, specialized cannula to delicately remove the fat, so it can be purified and harvested inside a centrifuge (which preps the highest quality fat for syringes). After preparing the injection site, the fat will be added to the breasts for transfer. The injection process is completed in layers until the desired outcome has been attained. Numerous injections will be necessary for optimal results.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a fat transfer to the breasts cost?
The cost of fat transfer to the breasts varies depending on a few factors. In fat transfers to the breasts, a larger volume of fat is needed than in similar procedures to add facial volume, so surgical liposuction is used, as well as a lengthier process for fat purification and grafting. During your consultation with Dr. Bidros, he'll discuss the amount of volume needed to achieve your needs and goals, along with pricing estimates and payment options for you to consider.
What if I don't have enough fat for a transfer to the breasts?
During your initial consultation with Dr. Bidros, he'll go over the amount of fat needed to meet your goals. You might not have enough excess fat for the transfer; however, this is usually only a concern for those with a meager body fat percentage or those who want a large volume of fat added to their bust. Fat may be removed from multiple areas or combined with donor fat. Dr. Bidros will explain your options during your consultation.
How long does fat transfer to the breasts take?
The length of time needed for your fat transfer will depend on the amount of fat being taken from your body, as well as the volume desired in the chest to attain your desired result. Dr. Bidros will be diligent with the fat transfer method we offer at MyBodyMD so that your results look as close to natural as possible. In all, it may take a couple of hours or longer.
What can I expect after my procedure?
Following your fat transfer, the incision is closed with sutures or surgical adhesives. All patients will be taken to a private recovery space and carefully monitored prior to being released. You will be instructed to continue wearing a recovery compression bra to assist with swelling. Several days after surgery, the swelling will start to decrease, and the breasts will begin to feel normal as they settle into their new position. The majority of patients can resume normal activities within the first week; however, physical exertion such as exercise should be avoided for approximately a couple of months. Fat transfer to the breasts produces gorgeous outcomes that feel and appear normal. This procedure in most cases can be a life changer for many women, allowing them the chance to feel more confident.
