I want to transfer fat to my boobs. I don't want implants. I need to lose some weight and I had lipo on thighs, knees and flanks. Should I diet and lose weight first and then transfer fat (will I have enough?) to my boobs or should I get the boobs done first and then diet? I absolutely don't want implants. Also, will be there any scars after fat grafting to boobs? Thanks
