I had 500cc & 550cc transferred into my breasts 90 days ago. First breasts were extremely hard and gradually soften, then dropped over time. However hard lumps are everywhere outer side of the breasts (under the armpits) some are the size of tangerine, a coin size and some as small as zits. What can I do to get rid of them. My doc said to wait and see for another 90 days if not better, he will drain with a needle, but I read and found that the size l have, can’t be done.
Answer: Fat transfer to breasts I would definitely wait for now and see what things look like in about six months. By then you will be able to tell which lumps are unlikely to go away on their own and at that time make a decision on what to do.

Answer: What can I do to get rid of lumps in the breasts after a fat transfer? I am not sure that the data has been collected on rate of calcification, and then the issue becomes whether that is clinically significant. The calcification lumps are usually not an issue. It is reasonable to expect lumps to improve or soften with time. As scars mature, they soften. This process may take several months. If the lump is the result of swelling, seroma, or hematoma, it should resolve quickly. If the lump is fat necrosis or viable fat that becomes discrete and remains palpable, it may require further treatment like aspiration or removal.

Answer: What can I do to get rid of lumps in the breasts after a fat transfer? Thanks for your question. This one is difficult to answer without photos and examination. In general, if there are persistent lumps at 6 months after fat grafting, an ultrasound can be done. If they are cysts, then that can be aspirated. Sometimes, they may need to be treated with liposuction or surgical removal depending on the size and symptoms.

Answer: Time Lymphatic Massage can potentially help this this. I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with. Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS), a member of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and a fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach TrainedDouble Board-Certified, Double Fellowship-Trained Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Lumps Dear Luv_p,I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment. Only after thorough examination you can get proper recommendations and advice.Daniel Barrett, MD
