I'm 123 pounds, had four full-term babies. I work out every day. I'm doing a procedure called harmonic vibration lipo to my inner and outer thighs, upper and lower abdomen, and flanks and transferring the fat to my breasts (if I have enough of it). This office has a history of 75% of the fat "taking," so I'm going to overfill (again, if there's enough fat to harvest).

Day 1 - Couldn't get fat transfer to breasts after all
beingrealDecember 3, 2016
After lipo to my stomach, flanks, hips, inner and outer thighs, oh and a teensy but on inside of knees, it was determined that there wasn't enough fat to be transferred to my breasts. I was really bummed out.
First night after procedure was awful. I threw up twice including my Percocet and anti-nausea meds. Couldn't hardly walk, didn't want to eat, needed help with everything.
Today I feel a bit better and was able to take a 30 minute walk, then shower and massage fluid out my holes (there wasn't hardly anything that came out). Then I had to get my compression garments back on. I was completely pooped after all that. Been in bed all day ever since. Trying to manage pain with Tylenol but I don't think one pill at a time is enough.

Sorry to hear you couldn't have fat transferred hopefully you get the results you want from the lipo is the reason there wasn't enough fat because of the actual procedure? I had traditional lipo and had just enough fat to transfer and that wasn't any taken from thighs etc

If my memory is right (I was out of it from meds), there was 400 cc's total. That's only 200 each breast and I was wanting more than that. I now wish that I had chosen to do it anyway because I can always have implants later if it's not enough but it's too late.

Oh no!! I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope you have a speedy recovery. Was the fat transfer the main reason for surgery or the lipo??

Lipo was the main reason for stubborn fat. But I really was hoping to not have to get implants.

Aw schucks. Yeah I'm having my implants removed in a couple of days in exchange of a fat transfer. I do not like the feeling of implants. I have had the sientra textured implants for 2 years and they have been getting more and more uncomfortable by the day. I hope you find suitable ones for your body.

Feeling much better. I can walk around and up and down stairs today. Still sore and needing Tylenol is all. I put before and after pics side by side and can see a difference already even with the swelling which makes me happy.
