Asked By:kimmcc in Auburn, AL

So ive had fat transfer done twice both times was a waste. After the first couple weeks i think i look great , but it doesnt last. Its been almost two weeks this time and i can already see my body getting back fat was removed so it'll help with the swelling . I asked if he knew how much fat would survive he said No just make sure i wear my compression. Ive been wearing it day, night. I want just want hips . What can i do now?
