Alternatives to Implants  

I am not open to implants but I would be interested in finding out if there is such a procedure as fat transfer. I was under the impression that fat tissue can be moved to the breast area. I nursed 3 children and would like to get my breasts back to their original state without implants.

RE: Alternatives to Implants  

Fat transfer or "grafting" was explored in the past as an option for breast augmentation. The procedure was unsuccessful due to the body’s ability to alter the adipose (or fat) tissue. If weight loss occurred, the shape of the breast would again change. If you are unhappy with your breasts because of breast feeding, you may just want to consider a lift. With a lift, the nipple is re-positioned and excess skin can be removed, this alone will give the breast a better look, but will not enhance the size.
