25 years old, plan on having children in 4-5 years - Will I lose fat transfer results after pregnancy?

Any fat transfer is subject to change over time with weight gain or loss. When you become engorged with milk, you fat may be compressed and you may see less volume over time.

Pregnancies can cause permanent changes to women’s bodies. It does however not change fat distribution

Pregnancy related changes are generally related to skin laxity of the breast and abdomen, muscle separation of the abdomen call diastase is recti and breast ptosis or droopiness often creating a lack of volume in the upper half of the breast.

These changes will happen whether someone has liposuction and or fat transfer before the first pregnancy or not.

The impact of pregnancies on both abdomens and breasts very substantially among different individuals. A lot of it is genetically predetermined and some it’s related to things like excessive weight gain or the choice to breast-feed or not.

If you have sisters who’ve had children then that would be a good way of knowing body changes to be expected otherwise your mother is an excellent example of what you can expect in regards to pregnancy related changes + age.

Breast fat transfer results very substantially among different providers. The procedure can typically create one half to maximum one cup increase in breast volume. The procedure does not change the shape of the breast substantially.

It creates volume but does not change the shape.
