Will fat lost after breast transfer due to weight loss come back when I gain weight again?

Asked By:DCP106 in England, United Kingdom

Female 36 years-old 166cm. Had fat transfer to breasts in 2019 and it worked really well and most fat survived. My weight has fluctuated in the last few years, and the fat in my breasts goes up and down when this happens. I've recently lost quite a lot of weight (57kg to 46kg) and obviously my breasts have become significantly smaller, pretty much back to how they were pre-transfer. Will the fat still return even though it's quite a lot of change?
