Hi there!I had a few procedures done about 5 weeks ago, including a tummy tuck (with muscle repair), liposuction on my chin, sides, and lower back, plus some fat transferred to my face Everything's healing okay, but I'm already thinking about next steps! I'd really love to add more fullness to the top of my breasts (sagging isn't a concern for me). To do this, I'm interested in liposuction on my upper back and moving that fat to my breasts. How long should I wait after my current surgeries before jumping into this? I'm eager to focus on upper breast volume ASAP but I want to make sure I'm giving my body enough time to recover safely. What's your advice? Thanks so much for your help!
