Breast Reconstruction - lipotransfer

Roseamy - did you have a lattisimus dorsi flap reconstruction?

My understanding is that 133ml is between 1/2 to 3/4 cup - if you use a measuring cup. Not a bra cup. I think the bra cup would vary on chest measurement.

Ellie, where did your friends have the "top" enhancement done? Was this in the US?

Hi,

I did have a lat dorsi recon with an implant, this was done 9 months ago and the first fill done 2 months ago I am hoping to get the 2nd fill done soon.
I would say that it is about a 1/2 to 3/4 cup full, we use the metric system in England but I have a measuring jug with cup measures on and i had a look and guesstimated it.
It has had the added effect of softening the area near the radiotherapy damage, they layer the fat in to the tissue rather than just inject it in like when you put jam in a doughnut, this helps the fat to take better and builds up the area better.
Good luck in your research I hope this helps.
