I am 2 months post op after a fat transfer to the breast.. Are my results close to permanent?

Question

If not, when can I wear a push up bra and when can breast manipulation happen where I don’t have to worry about killing fat cells. Thanks in advanced!

Hi thanks for your inquiry. Your results should be permanent at this point. Before you start wearing push up bras or doing any breast manipulation, check with your surgeon. Find out their recommendations. Recommendations vary so much between surgeons. Good Luck! Have a great day!

Each plastic surgeon has a preference for the type of bra to wear following breast fat transfer.  My patients find that sports bras that open in the front are more comfortable to wear,  and easier to manage for the first 6 weeks or so.   In addition, select a size that does not place any tension or pressure on the incisions.  I do not recommend underwire bras.   Best to ask the PS who performed your surgery for the time frame of converting to push up bras. You will need at least 6 weeks before you will realize your result.
