Top Surgery with Breast
Fat Transfer in Mumbai
What is Top Surgery with Breast Fat Transfer?
Top surgery with breast fat transfer is a gender-affirming procedure for transgender women and non-binary individuals seeking a natural method of breast enhancement. Instead of implants, this technique uses the patient’s own fat to add volume and improve breast shape, providing a more subtle and natural-looking result.
Why Choose Breast Fat Transfer?
- Natural Look and Feel – Since the procedure uses your own fat, the results feel more natural compared to implants.
- No Foreign Materials – Eliminates the need for synthetic implants.
- Minimal Scarring – Only small incisions are made for liposuction and fat transfer.
- Dual Benefits – Excess fat is removed from donor areas, contouring the body while enhancing the chest.
Am I Ready for Breast Fat Transfer?
- Do you have enough donor fat in areas such as the thighs, abdomen, or flanks?
- Are you in good overall health with no conditions that may affect healing?
- Have you maintained a stable weight, as fluctuations can impact fat retention?
- Are you comfortable with a subtle increase in breast size rather than a dramatic change?
- Do you have realistic expectations about fat retention? (Some of the transplanted fat will be absorbed by the body.
What Happens During Breast Fat Transfer?
- Your surgeon will assess your body type, goals, and the availability of donor fat.
- The best areas for liposuction will be identified.
The procedure is performed under general anaesthesia or local anaesthesia with sedation, depending on the extent of fat transfer.
- Liposuction – Fat is harvested from targeted donor areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks.
- Fat Purification – The extracted fat is processed to remove impurities and ensure only healthy fat cells are used.
- Fat Injection – The purified fat is carefully injected into the breasts using micro-injections to shape and contour them.
The procedure typically takes two to four hours, depending on the amount of fat being transferred.
Recovery Timeline
- Swelling and soreness in both the liposuction areas and the breasts are normal.
- Wearing a compression garment is recommended to aid healing and reduce swelling in donor sites.
- Patients should avoid pressure on the breasts to allow fat cells to stabilise.
- Some of the transferred fat will naturally be reabsorbed by the body (typically 20-30%).
- The final volume will become more predictable after six weeks.
- Maintaining a stable weight is crucial to prevent fat loss.
- Once healed, the results are permanent, but weight fluctuations can impact breast size.
- Regular follow-ups with your surgeon help monitor progress.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much of the fat will remain after healing?
On average, 70-80% of the transferred fat is retained, while the body absorbs the rest.
Can I achieve a large breast size with fat transfer alone?
Fat transfer provides a more modest enhancement. For a significant increase in size, multiple sessions may be needed, or implants might be a better option.
Is the procedure permanent?
Yes, the fat that survives the transfer remains permanently, but significant weight loss can reduce breast volume.
Will I need a second fat transfer procedure?
Some patients opt for a second session to increase breast size further.
Can I undergo breast fat transfer without taking hormones?
Yes, hormone therapy is not a strict requirement, but oestrogen can improve skin elasticity and enhance overall results.
