There was hardly any change after my breast fat transfer, will my breast size increase if I gain weight?

I have underwent breast fat transfer surgery a week ago. I am not happy with my results. There’s no much difference before and after. I could see only a minimal change in volume. Breast size will get increased later if I gain weight?
