It all depends where the fat is being placed. If its cheeks, chin, brow, then I do not see a problem with it. The closer to the nose you get with the fat, the more potential problems can arise, like extended swelling.

It is normal to have more selling with fat transfer than with fillers. The swelling will take at least 3 weeks to settle and will continue to change for a few months. But after 3 weeks you should be looking better. Reduce salt in your diet and this should help reduce swelling.

This is way too early to judge your results. You are going through the inflammatory stage of wound healing. This can take a few months and you will notice a change almost daily or weekly.

First, only 30% of the fat will survive and you need to give it time for the swealling to subside. This takes many months. Then, in certain areas, the transferred fat forms a capsule and it might be extruded or with the use of collagenase, shrunk. Some use very small cannulas to suction some of the fat.

First, give at least one year after surgery before starting to judge size. It takes time for the fat cells to get settled in the new area and start absorbing fat from your blood. Second, if you find that you want more, you can have a second procedure to further enhance your hips.

your final results can take over one year to realize. In the process the fat and swelling start to go down in 1-2 months and continue to go down up to 6 months. Then as the fat cells reestablish a blood vessel link in the new location, fat from the circulation is absorbed and the fat cells enlarge.

Dr. Memar was prepared to treat me after another surgeon had told me that I was not a good candidate. Dr. Memar and his staff were always very friendly and respectful to me. Dr. Memar always took the time to explain his treatments to me and to answer any questions I had. His work on my scalp was excellent! I'm now much happier about my appearance, and I will always be very grateful to Dr. Memar for the wonderful care he gave me.
I have been going to Dr memar for a couple of years now he is a wonder man and he also is good friend I have had work done by him 3 to 4 years ago. I am still having work done by him in a couple of days, I would not let anyone else do the job but him. He has a good spirit and personality, but most of all he does great work.( love the staff)
Excellent! I will recommend this procedure to my friends. Optimal instant results* Customer service was great the quality of care and service was Top Notch. They got me in and out faster than I expected! Very professional, friendly *Shout out to Dr Chi town this place is LIT highly recommended thoroughly pleases with my results
After working out for 2 yrs I decided to get a bbl! I'm so grateful I found Dr omeed, office I was so nervous n scared I've never had any surgery before! But, during my first free consultation the Dr omeed was so nice and informed me on everything! Not to mention his asst Lisa I love her she really is awsome, the hold team is just great customer service was spectacular, surgery was spectacular I didn't even feel anything , 3 days op n I'm chilling! Dr omeed has a gift!
Dr Memar is overall a nice, sensitive human being who is very good at what he does, and genuinely cares about his patients. Not the type to take himself too seriously. He apparently succeeds in connecting with his patients and work around issues that may arise without being defensive, which means he is always willing to learn and grow. He probably understands that this is about physical appearance and that connection is important. He is self-confident, laid back and doesn't complicate things for you. My submental lipo was successful and (so far) met my expectations. No pain or significant scars. i got what i wanted. He made sure to give me a realistic description of the results of the procedure and to avoid exposing me to disappointments. Everything is done at the clinic, you don't have to go to a hospital, and the after care is thorough . i do recommend and thank him. Updated on 25 Jan 2017: Most of the swelling was gone after about 10 days except for the left side of my lower lip which was altering my smile. During the holidays, family and all, i came up with the excuse that I had my lower wisdom tooth removed and had mini gum surgery because the tooth fell apart lolll. I was terrified it would stay this way but I remembered the test the Dr made me go through regarding healing time to make sure I memorized the info (lol): "- when should you expect full results ? - umm 1 month ? - 6 months !!!" So I waited and now after 5 weeks, finally my lip is back to normal. Whew !! Nobody could tell I did anything to my chin but everybody noticed i looked better. Until just a few days ago, It was difficult to raise my chin really high but now it's all back to normal. The area is not numb either and there are no lumps anywhere. Bingo.
Dr. Memar, Lisa and Miguel.... The Dream Team. Dr.Memar and his Team answered ALL of my Questions thoroughly. They welcomed me and comforted me at the Consultation, Dr. Visits, During Surgery and to this Day, They still call and Check on me... Dr.Memar and his team are very Polite, Helpful Professional and he makes himself Available at Any Hour of the day. Yes, I have his cell #.. I am Very Happy with my Results. I Am Officially A #MemarStar
The staff at Dr. Memar's office is very professional, informative, and friendly. I had a total of three visits/consultations prior to my procedure and each time Dr. Memar, Lisa, and Miguel never made me feel rushed. Their patience and experience with the procedure made me feel comfortable and reassured me that traveling to Miami or the Dominican was not necessary to achieve the look I desired. Dr. Memar & Lisa were very honest in informing me what my options and possibilities were for the look I wanted. It has only been 4 weeks since my procedure so it's too soon to determine what my final look will be, however, as of today, I can say I feel more confident in certain clothes. I can't say I am 100 percent satisfied because of the healing process and the on & off swelling, which is expected, but I can say I have no regrets & I highly recommend Dr. Memar & his team!!!
August 17,2016 Dr. Memar Preformed a Fat Transfer. I'm very pleased with my results. Dr. Memar You and Your Staff are so Amazing. There was no waiting time, You and yours staff made sure that I had full understand of my procedure. and everything went very well. the only problem that I had was with the garment. keeping it on in this hot weather, but I did it,I kept the garment on. It was hard. and I should have taken two weeks off. one week wasn't enough time. Thank You once again Dr. Memar
I have been going to see Dr. Memar for over two years after moving here from the Southwest. I cannot say enough about him and his care for me. The office is always clean and professional, the office staff greets me each time like I was a new patient and excited to see me again. His office and professionalism is second to none. As for the care he provides, I truly appreicate and embrace his input and overall honesty. Dr. Memar treats the whole person and that is important to me. I never feel rushed during my appointment time and in fact, he spends time with me talking about what's going on in my personal and work life. He is a rare individual and I am so pleased I found a caring physician like Dr. Memar.
So I read about and saw pictures with amazing results and decided to have my lifelong bags under my eyes addressed. I went in for a consultation and was so excited I got the Belotero fillers right then. It's only been a few hours so I won't freak out yet but it seems that most people noticed a difference right away. I don't see any change at all. Updated on 30 May 2016: So my doctor says I have swelling still so don't worry about what looks to me like a fat pocket. He had warned me that he starts very conservatively and may need to add more and it looks like that's what I need. I'm not sure I can afford to drop another $600 in hope that this time it will take.
