How Do You Take Care of Lumps in the Cheeks AFTER Receiving Fat Injections in the Cheek?

Not Worth It
Spent: $1,200 in Korea

Pros: no cutting involved

Cons: face looks lumpy

My mom had been very sick and had gone to Korea to get treatment. While she was there a friend of hers asked my mom to accompany her for some cosmetic surgery consultation. She somehow was talked into getting the fat injections because she looked so skinny.

It has been 3 months since the procedure. I can see that my mom is regretting it, the lumpiness seems to really bother her and I would really like to know what kind of after care will help.

What is recommended for people with fat injected into their cheeks? What should one do if there is lumpiness in the cheeks? Is there a tool that can be used to help massage the fat until it smooths out?
