Do breasts that are more dense weigh more than breasts that are mostly fatty?

Emma Watson
If dense breast tissue does weigh more is that why the before afters can be so different? You look at a woman with over 1,000 gram reduction and it can look similar to someone with a 600 gram reduction? that maybe the 600 gram patient had more fatty tissue that weighs less but takes up more space?
