Can fat grafting be done after breast implant removal?

Short answer
Yes, fat grafting is one option after implant removal to restore some volume without a new device. Because fat gives a smaller increase than implants and part of the graft is resorbed, expectations should be modest and staged sessions may be needed. The condition of the remaining tissue and capsule affects what is possible.
