I’m 5ft10, 150 lbs usually. Had BA 2 yrs ago but my implants began to ripple and implants were v visible. My surgeon said I had insufficient fat covering the implant and fat grafting would solve this. 2 weeks ago I had fat transfer from thighs to breasts and they look great. I normally eat healthily but I went on holiday last week and after overindulging gained 5 pounds. I want to lose this, but will losing weight in this early stage affect my fat grafts? Most of the weight gain is on my thighs.
Answer: Weight loss after fat transfer to the breast You should try to maintain your body weight for several months following any type of fat grafting procedure to ensure the best fat cell survival. Consult your plastic surgeon if you have any specific questions about your case. Best wishes,Dr.Bruno

Answer: Fat Everyone gains and loses weight in different places. If you lose weight in your breasts, I don't recommend intentionally losing weight, as you will lose volume in your breasts. I also recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with. Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS), a member of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and a fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach TrainedDouble Board-Certified, Double Fellowship-Trained Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Fat transfer Dear Amy870,Fat viability depends a lot of surgeon technique. The fat has to be placed back into the buttocks as soon as possible so that it has a greater chance of survival. It has to be placed carefully so that not too much fat is placed in only one area. Insignificant weight loss should have no major negative effect on your final results. Daniel Barrett, MD

Answer: Fat take after breast augmentation with fat Weight loss may make the surviving grafts diminish a bit but the main reason that fat transfers diminish after surgery is that most of the cells are dead at the time of transplantation. The dead cells will not 'revive', although some of the fatty oils in the cells can coalesce and form fatty cysts, which technically give volume but are not alive.
