Breast Size and Changes Over Time

Breast size and shape vary naturally and can change across a lifetime. Factors such as genetics, aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight fluctuations all play a role in how breasts look and feel.

What Influences Breast Size?

Genetics largely determine breast size and shape. Over time, age-related changes, lifestyle factors, and life events like pregnancy or weight changes can affect breast tissue, sometimes leading to differences in volume or firmness.

Changing Breast Shape 

Some people choose lifestyle measures such as exercise to support chest muscle tone and overall well-being. In some cases, cosmetic options may be discussed in consultation. These include fat transfer techniques, where fat is removed from another area of the body and placed into the breast.

About Breast Fat Transfer

Breast fat transfer involves removing fat from areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or hips and transferring it to the breasts. Levant Cosmetic Surgery offers this procedure to suitable candidates, performed by a qualified medical practitioner in accredited facilities. Outcomes vary, and suitability depends on your goals, medical history, and individual assessment. Risks, limitations, and recovery will be explained during your consultation.

Breast Augmentation FAQs

Is breast fat transfer safe?
As with all medical procedures, risks exist. Our clinic follows comprehensive protocols to promote patient safety and wellbeing. Potential complications include infection, swelling, bruising, scarring, and changes in skin sensation, such as numbness or tingling. There is also a risk of asymmetry or uneven results, fluid accumulation, and, in rare cases, blood clots or adverse reactions to anaesthesia. It’s essential to have this procedure performed by a qualified and experienced medical practitioner who can assess your overall health and medical history and discuss all potential risks with you to ensure a well-informed decision.
How long does it last?
Results from breast fat transfer can be long-lasting. Once the transferred fat cells establish a blood supply, they may remain in place permanently. However, factors such as weight changes, hormonal shifts, and aging can influence breast size over time.
