Had the surgery 3 years ago. A General Surgeon had performed it without lipo. I am overweight and I can feel that I do not have breast tissue under my nipples and when I flex my muscles, the parts that distort the pectoral muscle look, feel simply like fat. When I last asked my doctor, he said they are not able to cut perfectly and showed me some parts of the breast where he says the scalpel took some of the fat along with tissue. If I lose all the fat would my breasts look perfectly normal?
