Should I increase my calories or carbs to support the fat transfer in the first few weeks?

Hi. I m post op day 2 from extensive thigh lipo and breast fat transfer. My surgeon harvested 500 ml and transferred 400 ml total. I am using the VitaMedica Recovery support with Bromelain and Arnica as well as antibiotics and regular Tylenol for pain. I have a low normal BMI and I follow a careful low carb low calorie diet with most of my calories from healthy whole food proteins and fats. Should I increase my calories or carbs to support the fat transfer in the first few weeks? Thanks!
