Answer: Fat transfer Yes, loose all the excess weight before the fat transfer, or you may have smaller breasts than expected after the transfer. Most can return to office work within a few days.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Stable weight should be achieved when considering all cosmetic surgery. In general, patients considering body contouring surgery (including fat transfer) should be near their goal weight and with a routine that will help them to sustain this weight. Fat taken from the torso and transferred to the breast to enhance your breast shape will loose effect with weight loss after surgery. Fortunately, you are close to your goals already. Good luck.

Answer: Weight loss before BFT? Is it better to lose excess pandemic weight gain before breast fat transfer? Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. With the average of a ten pound increase this should not make a material difference for your BFT. Hope this helps.

Answer: Weight loss before BFT? Is it better to lose excess pandemic weight gain before breast fat transfer? (photos) Losing weight can have a noticeable impact on the size of your breasts if you tend to have a lot of fatty tissue stored there. Some of the retention rate will depend upon the amount of fat transferred, as smaller volumes will likely have a higher survival. Occasionally, a patient can resorb a great deal of the fat despite optimal transfer procedures. I typically transfer from 250 cc to 400 cc or so per breast. Thinner patients are outstanding candidates in my opinion, because the fat transferred is extremely resistant. I place one incision under each breast and the fat can be injected to the locations specified by the patient. Recovery is usually relatively quick. You will wear a sports bra for about six weeks, starting immediately after surgery. Many of my patients return to work after 4 - 7 days if that work is non strenuous and sedentary. Vigorous exercise should be postponed for two weeks.
