Hi I had a facelift done didn’t realised my doctor would perform facial fat graft after.. he over corrected that I ended up having puffy cheeks mid and lower cheeks. I use to have v shaped face now I have square face. At one stage it looked better because I lost a lot of weight due to sickness. Now that I have recovered and went back to my usual weight my face gone puffy and no definition anymore can I get it minimised. I have facial asymmetry as right side of my face is smaller than the left . a symmetry. I love my left side as it is perfect, I had to lift my naso labial and had permanent filler of only 2ml. Just needed my right to have a lift to meet the left. And just have a really mini for the left. But instead I have 2 puffy heavy cheeks. Is there a way I can remove or minimise this fat graft? Thanks
