Frank J. Ferraro, MD of Plastic Surgery Specialists of NJ located at 2 Sears drive #103 Paramus, NJ 07652 sees increasing evidence that fat transfer in the reconstructive and aesthetic use in the breast is safe. Recent studies show that fat transfer to the breast after mastectomy for reconstruction is not associated with an increase in recurrence or new cancers. Long controversial fat transfer had been thought o impede early detection of breast cancer. But the literature does not support this. Consider all your options and understand all the risks prior to making an informed decision.
