lipodystrophy

I was watching The Doctors and they started off talking about bizarre medical cases, like people who had to have 40 pieces of cutlery removed from their stomach, or had a 10 pound hairball. And then they got to this guy.
Now, your first reaction is probably "That's a bad case of gynecomastia." But he actually suffers from lipodystrophy, which leads to fat being deposited in various places. In his case, his breasts. So as he would gain weight he'd gain it all on his breasts. Did a little more researching and a similar phenomenon can occur after liposuction. If a woman has just her midsection lipo'd, any weight gain would occur in areas where there are still fat cells (i.e. breasts and butt.)

So anyways, just thought I'd throw this out there as it seems like a great story idea. (i.e. lipoing a woman everywhere except for her breasts and then putting her on a high calorie diet and her breasts grow huge.)

Well. If it is true, then I wonder why this is still not the very common practice IRL

Well, Lipo is more expensive than implants, many would say implants look better than fat breasts, health risks with gaining weight, as they don't do lipo on the face, your face would become fat...

That said, I'm sure there's been a few that have enjoyed that little bonus when they start to put weight back on.

well, the main problem with gaining weight (at least for women) is fat going to the wrong places.

well, beauty is in the ey of the beholder, but in some cases I agree with them. It really comes down to the size of the implants and the quality of the surgery. fat breasts have the downside of being saggy. Some implants look very natural and you would never guess. I of course always snicker to myself at the women with breats so fake that you can almost see the implant Dow Pharmaceuticals label through the skin.
