history of any problems in the family of breast tumor or cancer.
Is
there any preparation needed before surgery? - No,
just a
mammogram before the procedure and once a year thereafter to ensure all is
well.

long will be the results last? As long as there is no change in body weight or
general health, the results of autologous fat transfer will last for a minimum
of 10 years.
