Can I lose breast fat after gaining weight about 2 years after breast reduction?

Hi, I got a breast reduction on July 18, 2022. Unfortunately I've gained about 30 lbs since the beginning of this year due to medications and have been having a hard time losing it, I'm about the same weight I was when I had my first consultation. My breasts have grown due to the weight gain but aren't as big as they were before my reduction. Is it likely that I can lose the breast fat I gained by losing weight? Other info: F22 by end of July, 5'5", 140 - 150 lbs
