How low is too low percentage of body fat for fat transfer to the breasts?

Sensible453705
I’m 5’8 157lbs weight lift often. Have hips, pear shaped relatively flat chested. Arms have some flab I want to get rid of, no inner thigh gap so that’s another area could pull fat from. Waist pretty narrow can see some ab definition. Is there a body fat percentage range that surgeons would like clients to be in for successful fat grafting to breasts? I want to know if I should gain weight since I have surgery scheduled in about a month. Thank you
