Hi,
i have looked at med notes and the amounts are ;
harvested solution injected in left breast 133mls
138mls harvested left side
134mls harvested right side.
hope this helps.
they inject more than needed as there is a reabsorbtion rate of between30 and 50%, I have noticed mine has gone down and am expecting to need this doing again. I was originally told it normally takes 2 attempts to get the required fill.
