The initial loss happens mostly within about three to six months as non-surviving fat is resorbed. Long-term volume therefore depends on how much of the graft survived initially and on later weight changes.","detailed_answer":null,"format":"paragraph","confidence":85,"verified_at":"2026-09-14 13:42:07","updated_at":"2026-09-14 22:42:08"},"sources":[{"id":16,"title":"Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation","url":"https://www.plasticsurgery.org/cosmetic-procedures/fat-transfer-breast-augmentation","publisher":"American Society of Plastic Surgeons","type":"organization","accessed_at":"2026-09-14 13:42:07"},{"id":21,"title":"Advancing fat graft survival: from adipose-derived stem cell mechanisms to next-generation regenerative strategies","url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/42388980/","publisher":"Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology (2026)","type":"academic","accessed_at":"2026-09-14 13:42:07"}],"published_at":"2026-09-14 13:42:07"}
