I had fat transfer to the face 1 month and 4 days ago and a hard lump appeared under my left eye 3 days ago. Its painful and the skin is red. What should I do. It looks like the inflammation is getting worse. I took an ibuprofen and put warm compress but it didnt do anything.
Autologous fat grafts palpate as hard, discrete and nodular. Respected physician assures this is normal. Is this normal? Is it wise/unwise to massage these? Are they less predictable than fillers might have been? 2 gum balls where I'd had jowling and pearl-sized bumps under eyes. As edema goes away, lumps look more prominent. I'm in my late 40's, 8 dyas post-facelift , lower lid blepharoplasty w/numerous autologous grafts to face.
Hi, today is exactly 4 weeks post op.Lower eyelids still hurt and feel the hardness/tightness when blinking the eyes or when the eye muscles (love bands) move at any facial expressions. My puffy dark circles have become 2 big round puffy panda eyes now. I am disappointed with the much lower and prominent tear trough lines. I am already thinking of doing lower blepharoplasty to remove those fat. How soon can i do it? Thanks in advance!
I have had fat injected on my cheekbones 6 days ago ,on eyebrows, under eyes,laughing lines and lips.It was combined with breast augmentation & liposuction . Although i am based in London, got this done in Turkey when i came to visit my family.I have turned into a monster.Cant stop crying.My cheeks are really hard to touch and painful.Doctor asks me to wait two weeks at least but i have no hope it ever get better. Thank you.
How long should I wait to have a hard lump in lip treated after fat transfer? Procedure done mid Dec 2012. Lump is hard and not going away with massage. Dr says to wait it out. It's ugly and pulls the lip. Steroid shot? If so-what takes care of it without making a bigger problem?
