Does Fat Transfer to Breasts Interfere with Mammography?

Asked By:spt1094 in Baltimore, MD

Hi, I recently received a benelli lift with implants (I exchanged 350 cc implants to 250 cc implants - I wanted to go smaller) and the physician put some fat around a portion of the breasts. Does fat transfer to breasts interfere with mammography?
