I have undergone fat transfer by a local surgeon. I specified I only wanted to fill hollow under my eyes, but he ended up overfilling my whole face. I am now 3 weeks post operation. My under eyes are still swollen and my face look very fat. Is there a chance to go back near normal by liposuction ?
I'd like a 2nd opinion: Had severe damage to face from filler removal. Had facial fat transfer 22 days ago, loved the way I looked up until day 12. As of today, it appears all fat has dissolved. I also had severe tethering in my right cheek that he had to untether and fill. Ps says wait to 3 months and see results, will this get better and fuller with time, should I be doing PRP and microneedling, adding Sculptura or Radiesse. My body hates HA fillers so can't use those-they cause severe inflammation.
I am 62 years old. I had fat transfers under my eyes, around the brow, and in the jowl area. Horrific swelling and bruising immediately after surgery. Eyes almost swollen shut. I am three weeks post-op and my cheeks are still huge, round black bruises on both of my cheeks. When I smile cheeks feel very stiff and smile is distorted. I look nothing like myself - more like a chipmunk. Since I am still bruised, can I assume that I am also still quite swollen? I'm starting to panic.
It's been exactly 19days since fat transfer to cheeks and my dog bumped into my face. I iced it right away thinking it'll help. Now I am afraid the fat will be gone. What r my chances of loosing the fat to the trauma area? And about when do u get blood supply to the newly injected fat? Thank you
I'm nearly 3 weeks from getting fat grafting to my cheeks and underneath my eyes. My smile looks totally weird: my cheeks get really high and round like a hamster packing nuts away for the winter. And I look really swollen in general. At 3 weeks is this swelling or is this the fat????
I had fat transfer 3 weeks ago. After the procedure I been speaking like a ventriloquist as I heard it helps with fat take (my surgeon did not suggest me to do this it was my own idea) Can I finally relax now and talk normally and start smiling at people?
I got fat grafting to lips, cheeks but my top lip still looks very swollen after 3 weeks and 4 days. I just want the swelling on my top lip to go down but not affect the fat, I was wondering if a few radio frequency treatments could help the swelling. Thank u
I had small amounts of fat transferred to my cheeks (8 cc in total: 5cc in one cheek, 3cc in other cheek) and am currently 3 weeks post surgery. Most of my swelling is gone except for some swelling near my upper left lip and left nasolabial fold. What surprises me is that I don't see increased fullness in either cheek now that swelling is down: Is that normal? Does the fat need to settle down before it takes and I see the fullness? When can I expect to see final results?
