Lamenting about weight gain, and how one wishes that gain ‘went to the boobs or that butt’ is one of those things you have heard countless times second-hand, and almost definitely experienced firsthand before.
We, as women have a bigger bone to pick with our weight (there’s no ‘mumbod’ that everyone’s embracing or finding attractive), and are therefore more sensitive to any form of extra baggage, even if it’s in grams. We just sniff it out better, somehow.
The interesting thing to note, however, is that while we cannot program our fat to move in the direction of the bosom or the derriere depending on our deficiency in either of both departments, we can actually graft it – and it’s happening more common than you think you know.

Got Woke, Stayed Woke
Fat grafting has been used by plastic surgeons for a long time, but t is only in recent times that women have been more open to the option of seeking fat grafting for areas such as their breast, their buttocks, and even their faces.
The reason is simple: we women got woke, thanks to the web of knowledge (pun intended) being cast wider with our reliance on social media and the internet.

The Science is There
With improved techniques which include centrifuging the fat to extract the more youthful cells, fat grafting results are almost permanent, according to experts. This gives it an added edge to facial fillers which may last only a year or two.

Not only do you get to have an enhanced pair up or down there for a long time, you get to lose those love handles those online ‘How to Lose Your Love Handles’ videos have been lying to you about.

They Can *Never* Tell
The most important reason why women would choose to have fat grafting to their breast and buttocks rather than to have implants is that fat is a natural filler obtained from their own body and has fewer side effects than a foreign object like an implant.

Silicon-na Leave a Mark
Scars can be sexy… but only on a man, come on.
While silicone implants have been the most traditional method of breast augmentation, they also come with certain risks. Fat transfers, on the other hand, leave smaller scars, leave the door to size increments with future procedures wide open, poses no threat of foreign body rejection, and offer a more precise and curated patient adjustment.
Patients can expect natural-looking results whether they do it for their face, buttocks, or breast… and don’t we know how a pert bum, a full cleavage, and a face shaped to your desire can do to your self-esteem.
