How big of a difference would 200 cc make in belly area? (photo)

Question

I'm 30 years old, 170 cm/5'7 and 72 kg/158 pounds. Fat transfer to breasts in 2 weeks with tumescent/WAL lipo from inner and front thighs, flanks/sides and belly. My surgeon is I believe conservative with how much she takes, as my both thighs would amount to 300 cc together according to her and 50-100 from sides. The leftover 200 cc would be taken from my belly. How noticable the difference would be? I like my contours there, I'm trying to imagine is it even noticable in the end which is good in my opinion - I don't want a dramatic change. Are unevenness risks lower with smaller amounts?

Thank you for posting your question here!My answer will be based on the limited information and pictures provided, for a detailed and bespoke plan please consult with your plastic surgeon in person.From what you are saying it seems that your surgeon is on the conservative side which seems to meet your outlook. A lot goes into how things will look after surgery including the fat layer thickness in a certain area, the amount of fat taken out , which layer of fat is taken out (deep vs superficial), and how the skin will react to the liposuction in terms of contraction so depending on how it's done the way you will look after lipo will look different , but if done right the change with the numbers you mentioned will be subtle and will likely offer some refinement to the areas being addressed and it is a good thing that she is spreading the harvesting locations as not to alter your shape too much since you are happy with the way you look already.I hope this helps! Best of luck!

Just removing 200 cc's from your abdomen would look nice as it would thin down some, not all, of your fat.  Probably more could be removed if you want.
