Interested in Breast Fat Transfer, does it make sense/safe to save fat (fat banking) for additional augmentation in the future?

Asked By:IttyBittyCosplayer in Tampa, FL

I would like to ideally avoid using implants, but would also like to increase in size from a B cup to a D cup. I keep reading conflicting opinions in regard to the breast fat transfer process. Some say that in order to increase cup size further, sometimes additional procedures can be done. I've found a few surgeons that offer "fat banking" for this purpose. While it would be nice to avoid multiple liposuction procedures, is this normal to save fat? Would the fat cells survive that long?
