40, mom-of-2, candidate for fat transfer without lift, for increased volume only? (Photos)
August 25, 2024
Asked By:Dani Dani H in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada
I'm a 40 year old mom of two who has experienced a lot of weight fluctuations over the last 15 years. My breasts have lost a lot of volume and I have basically no upper pole fullness. Despite the fact that they sag, I'm more or less happy with the shape and position of my breasts, but do wish to have more fullness as they feel "empty". I'm wondering if I am a candidate for fat transfer without a breast lift given the sagging factor.

Smoking does affect others around the smoker. The biggest concern is if a smoker lives with you and smokes around you, especially in a car. Casual smokers that you might encounter in a bar should have little effect after a few weeks of healing.
It is very likely that you don't have lipedema . . . that is usually a leg process. And yes, you can use the fat in you hips/waist to transfer to the breast. Thank you.
Dear Exuberant692877,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. You might need a clearance from your doctor prior to surgery. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information...
