Breast augmentation with fat grafting: how long do the results last, and how much fat is retained?

AngelaMS
I am trying to decide btwn implants and augmentation with fat grafting. Only want to be a cup and a half bigger. It's a lot of money to spend (for fat grafting), so I want to make sure that the results will last and that I can see a change in the size and shape of my breasts. Some of the photos I've seen don't seem to show much difference in size or shape. Has anyone had this procedure a not been happy with it? It seems like most all comments are very positive, so I'm optimistic. Thanks!
