I had fat transfer 10 days ago . Day 3 I had bruises to one bit of my breast I felt a hard lump in that area . Told my PS he said its just where he injected the most fat . Today the lump is still painful & seems to be getting bigger it's the size of a golf ball
Answer: Fat transfer Thank you for your question and congratulations on your recent procedure! More than likely this hard lump is normal post-op swelling and should subside in the next 8-10 weeks. The most important thing is ruling out infection, so keep an eye on it and if the size continues to increase or you begin running a fever, you will want to be seen by your surgeon right away. If you still have concerns I would recommend scheduling an in-person checkup with the surgeon who preformed your surgery. Good luck!

Answer: Fat transfer/Lipofilling/Lipotransfer/Autologous fat transfer I would see your plastic surgeon for assessment. If this area is getting bigger they should rule out infection and abscess formation but may just represent post-operative swelling.

Answer: Lumps after fat injection This sounds like it could be normal. These things will usually smooth out in the first 8-10 weeks. You should consult your physician on your next follow-up. If you begin running a fever you may need to see them right a way to rule out an infection. This is rare.
