Can fat grafting be used to add fullness/create cleavage? How soon can it be done after implant surgery?

bpwalker
I am 5'9", 180 lbs, and was a 34 D/DD prior to bilateral mastectomy. I had expanders replaced by 700cc high profile silicone gel implants March 6. I had discussed with my doctor my desire to have good projection and cleavage. Disappointed with results. Implants are wide and full at the bottom; flat on top. I would like to know if fat grafting could be used to add fullness/ cleavage and improve shape. I have a vacation planned in May. Is it possible to have the procedure and recover by May 20?
