I'm 2 years post gyno op (unilateral, breast removal, no fat). A few months after the surgery a crater started to form. It didn't improve by itself. It's visible when i flex the muscle, move the arm or lie on my back. Doctors recommended fat grafts or hyaluronic acid injections. My main concerns are: - how are fat injections compared to fat grafts? When can i return to the gym after the procedure? - what is the outcome of hyaluronic acid injections, compared to the procedure above? Thanks, Alex
