What are my options after fat transfer for breast reconstruction ruined my legs?

August 21, 2022
Asked By:Exciting9167 in Houston, Texas

I have bad collagen apparently. I had to have my implants removed that had been in since my mastectomy and replaced with a FLAP and fat transfer. Im under 120 lbs. we used my legs as a donor site. It didn’t really do much for my breasts and my legs look awful now. Now I have ugly breasts and legs! Is there any hope for this? Dimpled, loose skin. it is mainly inner thigh and about 5 inches above the knee. I have not tried a laser as I did a skin tightening on face w limited results. Help please!
