“Ended Up with a Bag Under One Eye”

Worth It
Spent: $2,500 in Des Plaines, IL

Posted 9 Jul 2010

I had fat transfer for lines around mouth and to fill the hollows that had developed under my eyes. Overall I am very happy but under my left eye, I now have a bag, I guess the fat didn't absorb correctly there? The last time I saw my doc, for Botox, he said that if it wasn't gone in a month, he'd try to do a correction. I am wondering what he can possibly do to correct it? Take fat out? Has anyone had this experience? I have been putting off calling him because I keep hoping the fat will just slowly absorb and the bag will go away...? Is there anything I can do to help this problem? Massage? Or.....?

Helpful review?

My Doctor: name not provided

I have been seeing this doctor for many years and have had several procedures performed. I like him and his staff, and respect his work.

Follow up with your doctor. He can either do another fat transfer or a micro liposuction depending on what's needed. It can also take awhile to heal from a fat transfer.
