I saw the plastic surgeon today and asked if there was anything else that could be done and he mentioned the fat harvesting where they take the fat from your stomach and then inject into your breasts to fill it out

I have not yet, but it was one of the first things my PS mentioned he would plan to do for me. It makes it easier to know that they will get some of that round, softness back. I can't wait.

I had it done during stage 2 about 6 months ago. Much of the fat was reabsorbed, so I am about a B plus on one side and a c on the other. I have decided to just live with it, and wear bras w slight fiberfill. Just grateful for being relatively healthy!
