June 25, 2023
Asked By:ibac in Sanger, California, USA

It it possible to inject fat in the mammary gland for the purpose of breast augmentation with fat transfer? wouldn't fat damage the mammary gland? One doctor told me that since the breast have almost no fat but only mammary gland he would inject max 150cc per breast INSIDE and around the mammary glands.
