Lipo-sculpting is being dubbed the weight loss procedure of the future. Everyone woman's dream – to lose weight in one place and gain assets in another. Fat transfers are still considered quite taboo and controversial in the plastic surgery industry, but some clinics and surgeons are nearly converted. Some questions still remain about the procedure, however women seem to love the idea of using their own body parts as opposed to foreign materials.

The Denver Post said, "Because so little of it has been done, we don't have a lot of data," said Dr. Karol Gutow ski, a Chicago plastic surgeon and head of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons task force that investigated the technique. Most plastic surgeons aren't doing the procedure, instead waiting on results of long-term studies, Gutowski said. A key question is how long bigger breasts will last - will the fat melt away if the woman loses weight?"

Also surgeons have cautioned women keen on the procedure that fat transfers can't do the work of breast augmentations. They can't turn an A cup to a D cup, but a slight perk and boost from A to B is definitely doable.
