Can Facial Fat Injections be Contoured Days Later?

By forthewedding on 23 Jan 2013

I had liposuction performed on my chin on Monday. The fat was then injected back into certain areas of my face (under eyes, "laugh lines", etc.). My doctor has requested that I come back on Thursday so that he can "contour" the injections. Has anyone ever heard of this procedure being done in this fashion?

Hi there, welcome!

I haven't had this procedure, so I'm not speaking from experience. However, From the reviews I have read I've never heard of a doctor doing it days after the procedure. Did you ask your doctor if that would have any detremental effect on your results?
