I would do a second transfer if you have donor fat to give more volume to hide the ripples. Otherwise, the implants can be placed behind the muscle for better coverage.

No, since you have large and heavy breasts, they are sagging from the weight. If you add more fat, which is more weight, you will still sag. You need a reduction which includes a lift. with just a lift, you will sag again from the heavy weight.
