Aug 23, 2023

There are a few areas of the face where the I need to have filler dissolved prior to the surgical operation – rhinoplasty, bone-related upper or lower jaw surgery, lower eyelid operations, amongst others.

Breast fat transfer is a common procedure performed by plastic surgeons for patients in your exact situation. The fat is generally used to augment the entirety of the breast, but specific focus on the medial breast for cleavage or upper pole of the breast (to fill out “deflation” of the breasts) are common requests from patients.
