    @Luni ss. I didn't have radiation. Fortunately I was post menopausal and so they didn't feel I would benefit from radiation. I did wait 6 months after my last herceptin infusion. Herception really brought out all of the aches and pains. Felt and looked 20 years older than I actually was. We now have 10+ years of actual procedures now where I believe the doctors would have most of the kinks worked out. I understand that radiation is really hard on the skin. Maybe there is a lotion or ointment that you can use in preparation for the surgery.

    I had this done approximately 7 years ago. It was still somewhat controversial at that time. Very few surgeons did it. I had it done after cancer. I didn't want implants and I didn't want huge breasts. Usually you get a cup size bigger. I was a 34C to begin with. My breasts turned out beautifully and I wouldn't want to be any larger. They got bigger over time for some reason. A little over 34D. I disagree with the mammogram thing The one annoying thing is false positive cysts and fat necrosis that shows up as "suspicious" areas and three times I had to go through ultra sounds and biopsies for no reason. Costly. Still glad I did it my way. Funny how the two lights behind him look like breasts...just sayin.😂

    Right, very honest. I always go with the MD that tells me " NO" first, versus the ones that see I'm paying cash and promise the moon and space ship. I was a - A , went in for consult. Wanted a D had the cash that I saved. Went to 3 Dr. Two told me yes, standing at 5 feet 128 lbs. One told me "no", and he was not willing to put his name on that "as my work is its own walking billboard." Take this (cocoa butter) and go home. Massage the boobs for two weeks, and when you come back, we will aim for a full C. I was surprised but felt reassured. Got them done and was happy as ever... The only downside is I'm approaching year 10 and scared that getting them redone won't turn out as perfect as these. So, lowering my expectations and a fat transfer might be the option.

You’re very honest. Thank you. Women (I think) chose to put themselves through these procedures for so many many reasons. This is a big deal. I gather you care and understand these are human bodies that have entire lives to live. I am going to get several procedures. I truly wish you were near Tampa.

    I don't think it would give you a breast lift that's a different procedure. Fat transfer to the breast will mostly give a fuller look to the breast shape you already have. If you have sagginess then you'd need a breast lift and maybe implants/fat to get back the fullness you once had before your breast started sagging.

    I've been reading about how it's better to do fat transfer if you're skinny because the cells will be lean when transferred, instead of enlarged, and how some doctors actually ask patients to lose weight before the collection and what they do is collect a thin layer over a large area, giving preference to stable areas like love handles and thighs.

    I just had my 1st fat grafting along with tissue expander to implants and so far so good - two weeks post surgery. I do wish more doctors took the time to let the patient know AHEAD of time what they are in for as far as fat grafting. and what to do following the procedure as far as massages/lymph node massage. I like Dr. Barrett's approach and explanations!

    Have a third fat transfer next week. After BC 17 years ago, had implants removed due to significant capsular contracture. (Clinical trail participant for gummy implants). Had minimum fat transfer with new implants 220 cc. Severe capsular contractor within 4 weeks! Had them removed and just decided on fat transfer. Implants do not agree with me. No longer con-caved, but realize the best results will be nearly flat chested and wear a padded bra. I won’t do more than three because I find it considerable painful/uncomfortable and don’t like the downtime. But feel it was worth it. I can feel my heart beat again and my chest is warm if that make any sense.

How long after I stop fully breastfeeding is the procedure recommended? And I am in Az so jow long should I be expected between follow up appointments?

    The ideal timing for breast augmentation when you are breastfeeding is about six months after you have completely stopped breastfeeding. You can speak and visit a board-certified plastic surgeon to further discuss your preferences and the options that are available for you, especially if you are looking forward to having another child.

    breast reduction is best suited for women who wish to decrease the size of their breasts. While there are different techniques used to perform this surgery, I prefer the vertical incision (lollipop pattern) breast reduction technique instead of the anchor scar pattern, which reduces more noticeable scarring than usual. I also use a SAFE liposuction technique to reduce additional fat around the stubborn axilla area and bra line. This way, my patients are achieving beautiful results with minimal incisions which reduces downtime and delivers an overall better breast shape long term. If you are considering breast reduction surgery, you should consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options and make sure your surgeon understands your goals. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

    My surgeon did composite including implants. I was lean before so it was a challenge to find fat and he went with flanks and inner thighs. Man the lipo sites were sore after but all bruising faded. Boobs still in drop and fluff stage and I have a lot of upper pole fullness and visible slim down in hips and thighs . He said he only took 300 grams which is interesting since it looks like I lost an inch or so from those areas.

As for the fat transfer, I have volume in my breasts that exists in places it's never existed before.. especially on the sides of my breasts, I have never had side boob before!! As well as volume between and on the inner sides of my breasts, before my sternum bone was super aparent and obvious but now there's some meat there finally! Once my breasts drop and soften a bit more I can tell I will finally have cleavage I've never had before.. my surgeon injected fat in three different places on each breast, one on the side, the tops, and the inner part near my sternum. The fat has created such an improvement in my breasts along with the implant, I would 10/10 recommend!

    What about stem cell enriched fat transplant? I read a few years years ago that fat transfer often had a very lumpy results due to reabsorption of the fat by the subjects body. I then read that they were using stem cell enriched fat to prevent reabsorption. The gist was the Drs harvested twice as much fat as was needed for the transplant. Next the Drs harvested all of the stem cells from half of the fat they removed and placed those stem cells in the fat they didn't harvest stem cells from. They then used that stem cell enriched fat for the transplant. The fat they harvested the stem cells from was discarded and not used. Is this not the best method? Is it not being done now? Any further information on the subject?

    "Once grafted, fat takes on a life of its own" ...truer words never spoken Also he is absolutely 100 % accurate about the pain from the liposuction harvesting site. I have had 9 breast surgeries in 4 years from mastectomy to failed sub pectoral implant reconstruction (gummy bear implants ruptured - and where recalled by manufacturer) followed by the procedures listed below. By far the most discomfort has been the liposuction from the flank - I feel like the proximity to the spinal cord makes that area far more sensitive than other areas I am a 42 year old female with the BRCA 1 genetic mutation and have had a a bilateral prophylactic mastectomy. March 2021 DIEP Flap reconstruction June 2021 lipofilling harvested from flank to upper pole of breast I understand that, as with any cosmetic procedure, there is no way of predicting how much fat will survive post lipofilling.
