Robert Whitfield MD compares fat transfer to breast implants. Fat transfer creates natural fullness while implants give more forward projection. Older patients have more usable donor fat, and the procedure works well combined with a lift after breastfeeding.
Like my daughter is a Leo like me, and she's stubborn. And if, if she just sat there and decided, I want implants, you, I, everybody I know couldn't call her and change her mind. Like they're going to do what they're going to do. Is it easier when you're older to probably handle that as a life decision? Sure. There are a lot more options though. As we age, we usually gain more weight. So we do have more usable fat at that point for fat transfer.
Okay.
It's also usually after breastfeeding, you know, if there's tissue, it's easier to do a lift and add fat. There's examples of that in our work. And I've hired another surgeon like we talked about, Dr. Chung to help because I'm just one person. So we got to have more help, more like minded people.
Does a fat transfer look, I mean, similar to breast implants or does it just look like bigger real breasts or what is it? What's the looks.
Like bigger real breasts?
Okay.
Yeah. So an implant is always going to give on profile. This extension away from the chest wall, the old high shelf look like that's not normal.
