Soooo I really don’t want breast implants, ( I’m just too concerned about breast implant illness)but I was wondering would it be safe to inject like 1000cc-1200cc into each breast, since 30-40% of that fat won’t survive? (I’m thinking I’ll be left with 600ish cc in each breast) I haven’t heard about doctors injecting that much and I would really like to go up to a full DD from a B cup and I don’t want to get it done and be left with a smaller cup size than I would like.
Answer: The truth about fat injection into the breasts- the problems and the limitations People, including doctors, think that "40% - 60% of my fat lives" when fat injection is done in large volumes to the breasts.

Answer: Is it possible or safe to inject 1000-1200cc into each breast for a fat transfer to the breast? No. Unfortunately that is not how breast fat grafting works. All the fat must be surrounded by living tissue to get blood flow and ultimately survive. Breast fat grafting is generally 100-300 cc per breast. Now, that being said, the procedure can be repeating but it is VERY unlikely you would ever get to the point you have suggested. Additionally, the fat does not give the same appearance as an implant so you likely wouldn't be happy in the long run if it were possible. Best of luck.

Answer: Fat transfers If you are a size B, it would be impossible to inject 1000-1200 cc of fat into each breast. Unfortunately, you have not told us your bra size. If you are size 32 or 34, each 100 cc of fat corresponds to 1 cup size change. If you are size 36 or 38, each 200 cc of fat corresponds to 1 cup size change. You are correct in how much fat survives. If you want 100 cc of fat increase then you would need 150 cc of fat injected. Attempts to inject large amounts of fat can result in an inadequate bed for the graft to take and the fat will undergo absorption or may calcify and leave hard nodules.

Answer: Is it possible or safe to inject 1000-1200cc into each breast for a fat transfer to the breast? In general, 200 cc per breast is typically the upper limit of fat injection recommended by most plastic surgeons. It is not that more cannot be injected; but on average, this has been determined to be the most that can be expected to live during one transfer. Multiple transfers would be required for additional cc's. In general, the abdomen and thighs are preferred donor sites but fat from other areas can be used. The fat must be injected through multiple planes in small amounts to the tissue through one tiny incision under each breast. About 50% of the fat obtains permanence

Answer: Fat Grafting the Breasts BII has not been validated as a real entity. It is defined as such, and it's treatment determined by women with no clear scientific evidence of cause and effect relationship to implants. It almost entirely afflicts middle and upper middle class women who frequent social media. The BII groups monitor their follower's activity and comments, and anyone who does not follow the groups' vision of breast implants leading to illness leading to 'en bloc capsulectomy' leading to perfect recovery are blocked. Further, there appears to be a fiduciary relationship between the BII groups and their 'selected surgeons'. I suggest you let our leaders in plastic surgery science tease out the details to determine any legitimacy of claims. In the meantime, it appears to be a very unlikely entity, if it is anything at all. Go get your implants, because fat grafting, no matter how large a volume, will not produce implant like results. And no, you can't graft a liter of fat into each breast, most of it would die, and you'd have hard oil cysts in your breasts.
