The best harvesting sites for breast fat transfer with the greatest number of fat cells are found in love handles/abdomen and inner and outer thighs.
Asked By: LucyLucy3
ANSWER
We recommend to all our patients to abstain from high intensity/anaerobic workouts for 3 months post FT. This allows the blood supply of the new cells to connect to the old cells for permanent retention. Also, you want to avoid any bouncing or shearing during high intensity workouts like interval training as those motions can create disruption of blood supply to the new cells during the first months. We have a list of workouts for all of our patients on our Facebook Dr Bednar's fat transfer page.

You seem to be a good candidate for transfer because you have depots in areas that carry the greatest number of cells and you have enough of your own natural breast tissue to make a verry natural difference in size

We have used Renuva-which you are referring to for cellulite dimples in buttocks and some smaller areas of indentation from falls or trauma in thighs and the average use has been 3 syringes with fantastic results. We have not used it in breasts as there are no FDA indications for it.

ANSWER
After three months you will see permanent results from fat transfer in regards to volume. We have seen patients lose some volume after significant weight loss only to regain after adding some weight back on. The aging process will continue, however, the fat cells transferred are permanent.
