What Breast Augmentation Technique Looks the Most Natural?

When it comes to enhancing the size of their breasts, many women are stuck choosing between their safety and a pleasing aesthetic outcome. They want the safety of saline implants in case of a rupture, but they want the natural look and feel of silicone gel, which mimics the breast’s natural movement. But what if you didn’t have to choose?

Dr. Robert Langdon, founder and director of The Langdon Center for Laser & Cosmetic Surgery, can give you the best of both worlds with lipo-augmentation, one of the safest, most natural-looking breast enhancement techniques available today. You get the safety of increased volume provided by your own fat (a tissue native to the breasts) as well as maintainence of the breasts’ natural look and feel.

How Does Natural Breast Augmentation Work?

It’s no secret, implants can have their drawbacks. Patients who choose saline implants have to deal with the rippling of the implant’s shell, and there’s a risk of leakage with both saline and silicone implants. Also, the FDA recommends a revision surgery to replace implants every 10 years.

Natural breast augmentation at The Langdon Center for Laser & Cosmetic Surgery removes these concerns. First your own fat is obtained using the Body-Jet liposuction systemt from a donor site such as the abdomen, hips, or thighs. 

Dr. Langdon then injects the purified fat into all quadrants of the breasts to enhance their shape and size. He even enhances the upper, inner quadrants of the breasts to produce more cleavage. Once the purified fat is injected, the adult stem cells in the fat go to work, supporting the grafted fat cells by developing into different cell types, including blood vessels, that help the fat reintegrate into the tissues. This increases breast size and improves breast shape without the need for implants or compromises on safety.

Am I a Good Candidate for Natural Breast Augmentation?

If your breast size leaves you wishing for greater volume, or you’re concerned about breast asymmetry, a natural breast augmentation may be for you. Ideal candidates are those with enough fat in a donor site to harvest for the transplant process. Schedule your comprehensive consultation to learn more.

How is the Natural Breast Augmentation Procedure Performed?

Once you’re made comfortable with the appropriate local anesthetic for your procedure, the donor fat is extracted using the Body-Jet liposuction system. It delivers controlled bursts of an anesthetic solution to the fat cells to break them into small clumps that can be easily suctioned out through small cannulas. 

The fat collects in the sterile Lipo-Collector for gentle cleansing and concentration before the cells are placed into precision syringes for Dr. Langdon to inject into the breasts. He shapes your new breasts with this purified fat with an eye for the maximum cellular uptake. At the micro-level, the adult stem cells produce more blood vessels so the fat can reintegrate into the tissues of their new surroundings.

After your procedure, you’ll be given detailed aftercare instructions for your recovery period, which may last 1-2 weeks. This also gives the newly grafted fat cells a chance to adhere to their new positioning, which improves the long-term outcome of your natural breast enhancement.

What Results Can I Expect from a Natural Breast Augmentation?

Natural breast augmentation has many benefits over traditional breast enhancements with implants. One of these advantages is less scarring. Other than the tiny incisions made during the fat harvesting portion of the procedure—which will heal without sutures—there are no major incisions to recover from. The size and shape of your breasts will be improved. There are no foreign materials involved, and your fat should integrate into the breasts within a few weeks. Without the use of implants, your natural breast augmentation results are good for a lifetime without the need for future surgeries.
