I have C cup sized breast with loose skin, sagging breasts and stretch marks. I was considering a fat transfer to plump them up but read on here its not very reliable. Would it make more sense to just remove the excess skin? Are there any other suggestions? I am 5'2, 120 pounds.

Answer: Mastopexy versus Fat Transfer to Breasts
Without "before" pictures or seeing you in person, it is impossible to answer your question. However, if you have loose skin and stretch marks on your breasts, I doubt that fat transfer will be very useful. You likely need a mastopexy and possibly an augmentation as well if you need to replace volume.
Good Luck.

Answer: Breast augmentation together with breast lift
Without a photo or preferrably a physical examination it is impossible to know what would be best in your situation. Given your description of sagging breasts with stretch marks it is highly unlikely that fat transfer/grafting alone will correct the issue. Thinned stretched out skin with stretchmarks just does not have the elasticity to give you the result you want. If you just put an implant or fat into the breat it just may end up sagging more.
I hope you realize that this format of posting questions and receiving answers lacks the face to face direct communication required for you to make an informed decision regarding your surgery.
My response to your question/post does not represent formal medical advice or constitute a doctor patient relationship. You need to consult with i.e. personally see a board certified plastic surgeon in order to receive a formal evaluation and develop a doctor patient relationship.
