I'm 5'5 30 pounds overweight, it's mostly gathered into my tummy and I have C cup breasts right now. I'd like to go up to a DD to have a more aesthetically pleasing figure. How many cup sizes can you go up with fat transfer? // and if not much, would fat transfer before breast implants be better?

Answer: Fat transfer or breast implants or both? It is not that common for a patient to need both breast implants and fat transfer but there are some indications. This is especially in someone with very thin breast tissue who seeks a large implant and risks having visible waviness and rippling. You will not succeed in going from a C cup to a double D cup with fat transfer alone under any circumstances and if your breast tissue thickness and skin elasticity is judged to be satisfactory then placing the implants is your best choice. Meet with an ABPS board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss specifics and be examined in a face-to-face setting so that your questions can be answered.
