Will breasts regain volume after blood supply is established in retained fat after transfer?

Hello @Reliable557674, thank you for your question. It depends a lot on the fat seeding technique used by the doctor performing the surgery. Is probable that you will nor regain volume. Best wishes!

Hello,
And thank you for the question.
Following removal of breast implants without replacement, a patient may choose one of two options: do nothing and see how much the skin retracts or undergo fat transfer to the breasts at the same time.
Fat transfer is usually done through tiny incisions with minimal scarring and often more than one session is necessary to achieve the desired results. It also allows improvement of contour in the areas where the liposuction is performed in order to harvest the fat for transfer.
About 50-70% of transferred fat will generally survive after the surgery. The fat that does survive will act like normal fat as it's permanent but will also grow with weight gain.
I suggest that you seek an in person consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon specializing in Breast surgeries to further discuss your options, specific techniques, concerns and expectations. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results.
I hope this helps.
Best, Dr. Karanetz

No, what fat survived is all the fat you will have unless you add more fat or gain weight to increase the size of your breasts. You can always have implants.
