Re: Fat Grafting

Thank you.
I thing that fat grafting is different from DIEP or another flap - they suck the fat out by liposuction, centrifuge it and separate it from liquid, and inject to form a breast mound. It takes several procedures.
I am exploring this option and looking if anyone went through it.
Good luck with your procedure!
