Beware your next mammogram
$8,300
While I am still happy with the appearance of my breast augmentation by fat grafting, I now have to write a word of warning about mammograms. I had my first one a few months after my procedure. The results were unusual (fat necrosis nodules) but I expected that, given the grafting. I was asked to get an ultrasound and mri. Inconvenient, but ok. A year later I got my second mammogram and ultrasound. I thought maybe some of the nodules would have dissolved and my results would look better. They did not. They looked worse (larger irregularities, nodules that look like a solid dot within a larger liquid bag, and three hard lumps that I can feel when I touch my right breast.) The left side is clearer. Maybe bc I’m right handed? Anyway, it’s scary. And this is what my mammograms will look like for the rest of my life?... i thought fat grafting would be safer than implants, but now I think the opposite is probably true. I think if I were advising a close friend or family, I would advise against fat grafting simply bc of how dangerous it is to have unclear mammograms forever.... here’s a good post on this subject. https://www.drkarenhorton.com/dr-hortons-blog/why-not-augment-breasts-with-fat/

Great result. Do you still wear compression garment?
Yes. I wear it to sleep at night only
Ok. Thanks for replying.
How long did it take until you got to wear it just at night? :)
Hi. Sorry so late replying. I'd have to look back at these comments but maybe 1 month? I wore the garment at night for several months, at least 3 according to these entries.
Did you have breast implants in addition to the fat transfer, or just a fat transfer?

You look stunning. Your breast is still same size judging from the pictures. I think you’re just used to seeing them. You progress is mind blowing
Thank you so very much. I’m very satisfied.

Breast implants DO cause cancer .
