Has anyone had liposuction to refill their breast after a lumpectomy? I had to have two lumpectomies as they didn't get all the cancer the first time, so I lost half of my breast. I prefer to use my own fat to fill the breast back out, but want to know more about it such as side effects after the procedure, long term results, etc. This seems to be the most natural way to reconstruct the breast, but there seems to be so little information about it.
