Asked By:Anonymous93671 in Georgia, GA

Most of the swelling has subsided and my cheekbones look grotesque and overly done.Fat was to be transferred to the hollows. Instead,my hollows look much more defined thanks to the fat placed over my cheekbones.I had minor pre-jowling and fat was transferred to jawline to hide this.instead the fat was placed in my jowls, now they are enlarged and look much worse. I look unrecongnizable and grotesque. My question is, is there a way to reduce fat survival?Will massage or any other technique help?
