Will my upper lip go down? Can fat be sucked back out if it doesn't? (photo)

Dear SydneyLoo,Swelling 50 hours after fat transfer is very normal. Swelling can last up to 8 weeks so I would be patient at this time and try not to worry. Icing and taking Ibuprofen will help reduce the swelling. If you have any more concerns, I would bring this up with your surgeon. Best regards,Nima Shemirani

Dear SydneyLoo,
you shouldn't be worried since you are still in early stage of recovery. Your swelling should subside. You can used ice and ibuprofen to help reduce it.

Yes, swelling is typical after fat transfer and can last 3-6 months. I recommend prp to help improve final results. Icing the area, predisone, ibuoprofen and venus legacy treatments can help reduce swelling. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thanks for your question!  You are still very early in the recovery process.  Your lips will likely still change quite a bit before you achieve your final result.  Just be patient and trust your doctor.  Good luck!

You are very early in your recovery. Swelling is worse at 72 hr and then starts to improve. May take a full 6-8 weeks to get to the final result. Is normal to feel worried due to swelling at the beginning. 

It's still early on in your recovery process so your lips are still swollen and will continue to change over time. You can always ice and take ibuprofen to assist in the healing process.
