I am not fat but i have really small breast and thick thigh. My tummy is very flat but all the fat just seem to go my thigh and not anywhere else. So Once I have saved enough money, i have decided to do something about it. I actually have consulted alot of doctors across nations, including US, UK and of course Korea. Initially, I wanted breast augmentation but I guess I am not exactly very comfortable with the idea of having implants and I am really afraid that my future partner will know about it. Couple with the complication, I omitted the idea quickly. Another reason for choosing fat transfer is that I actually want a small increase of breast size. I am down with surgery in 2 weeks time. After consulting few of the very notably ( one in Seattle and the other in Carolina, I have decided to perform in Korea as it is nearer to my workpalce. Doctor said he would remove 1000cc from both thigh and would inject 400 cc into each of the breast. He gauged that 40 % will only remain, so he said after two months or so, I would only have half or one breast size increase which I am completely happy with. I will keep this coming and hope I will have a good results.

I'm pretty sure I've made the right choice. The place I went to is huge. They have a ward and many nurses and doctors to take care of you. Ultimately, I think this is crucial as any surgery has risk and you want to go to somewhere that actually is responsible to your well being. On the day itself, there's this consultant that explains everything to me and asked for my expectation. Then the doctor came in and we talked a little. Then we went straight to the surgery room. I have sedative and local anaesthesia. When I woke up I'm already at the ward. I stated in the ward for one night and throughout my entire stay, there were nurses who kept coming to check on me. My legs were so sore ... But I would say that pain is not unbearable, i even got up and walked for a while. The next day, after seeing the doctor, I even went shopping,though in a very slow manner. The doctor said the swelling would take a month to come down. And if I want a more permanent result, I should go for second refil as the fat would most likely be absorbed in two months time. They would keep the fat for me. For those who would like to do any surgery, I would suggest to go for a proper one that actually equips with emergency preparation. If you are concern with money then you should not do plastic and wait till you have more money to do it. Will update soon !!!

Well done mui, your breasts look lovely. Do you know how many cv they put in each breast?
October 21, 2014
240 on the left and 220 cc on the right. it's actually get nicer and more soft. Doc said it will absorb and retain 40-60%, its better to get second refill which stays better.
October 24, 2014
I think it depends how much is absorbed after 2 months. But most probably will cause the size would be more stable. plus it is also cheaper for second round.

You look great! How long did your surgery take?
October 25, 2014
Which hospital did you choose? it's amazing that there is no bruise after the procedure at all! I'm planning to do the same thing next month and am still looking for good clinics.

The thighs are getting more sores but the breast is getting softer. I could feel the fat is getting a little absorbed or just the swell simply has just gone down. I didn't develop any bruise one my breast which is good .

Looking good! Are you wearing a compression garment on your thighs? How are you doing?
October 26, 2014
ya. I am wearing it everyday. the swell has already gone down a little but the bruises are crazy!
October 27, 2014
Bruising is bad for me too :( How long did your doctor say to wear your compression garment? Glad to hear your swelling is going down!
October 28, 2014
I was advised to wear it for one - three months, three months being the best . Keep walking, it helps. the thing that bothers me is that every morning, I will be waken up the burning sensation on my right thigh... apparently its nerves awakening...

Lovely results so far! I had my transfer done 5 months ago now and I think I have probably retained 40-50%. Over all a half cup to a cup increase. Just like your Dr said. My Dr said I may potentially keep up to 80%, but that hasn't happened. It's great your Dr has been very realistic and honest with you. I think a second transfer some day would be great, but the expense is a big issue, plus having enough fat for another transfer too. I hope you retain as much as possible! You look great. Wishing you well with your recovery :-)

Thank you! the hospital said they will keep my fat for 6 mths so they suggested to go for another time and the second time is normally only half or even the less than the original price. Did you have any irregularities even when they shrink ? and do they still stay in nice shape?
October 27, 2014
Hi. They have definitely maintained a nice shape and no irregularities. Feel soft and totally natural. Just smaller than I'd hoped, but probably a fair result - presuming they don't shrink any further. I think I was most pleased with the result at about 4-5 weeks post op. Great size then. But definitely lost more after that. Mine have probably stayed the same since about 2-3 months post. Will the fat they have stored for you work as well on the second transfer do you know?
October 28, 2014
the doctor said fat could only stored for 6 months then it would be discard as it would not be a good fat anymore. so as long as i returned within six months time. it would be good. plus the second time injection are normally more stable.
