Dr. Robert Whitfield performs about 100 fat transfers yearly, often on cancer patients on hormone-blocking drugs. He says first-time transfers work fine with proper patient preparation and health management, not a second attempt. He treats patients of any age, including a healthy 70-year-old seeking breast rejuvenation.

Yeah, they seem to know everything. I'm just a little curious about them. So Emily, fat transfers obviously do work on the first take. That's why we're interviewing Jenna so she can share her experience. And I did them for cancer patients. About 100 times a year, and they would typically have a more difficult time than someone like Jenna because they're on medications that would block some of their hormones, and they're typically a little bit from an immunosuppressed standpoint; they're more challenging. So, and you can get good results in those patients the first time and/or the second time, of course. But it's not the second time is the magic trick; it's more about preparing the patients, and you want to get everybody as healthy as possible. Like Uh, Jenna was describing in her case. Um, uh, somebody is interested in fat transfer. They had an explant. Not happy with my aging breasts. Super healthy 70-year-old. Yeah, we don't do the age discrimination in my practice or on my channel. I think that's gross. So yeah, we take care of everybody.
