  • Unwanted fat deposits can be targeted– One of the major differences between an implant and fat grafting is that with fat grafting, fat is taken from other areas of your body to increase the size of your breasts. Many patients enjoy that while their breasts are enhanced, they can also target other areas of their body they’d wish to remove fat from.
  • Minimal scarring occurs– Fat grafting leaves behind very minimal scarring. The procedure is performed using liposuction with small incisions.
