How it is done
(1) Fat is harvested from areas with enough fat, such as the abdomen or thighs, according to body shape; (2) unnecessary components are separated and the fat for grafting is purified; (3) the fat is injected in portions across several areas, considering the layered structure of the breast so that it does not concentrate in one spot; (4) left-right balance and overall shape are checked. A board-certified anesthesiologist handles anesthesia 1:1.
