Can a BBL be reversed 1 week post op. I loathe my results. It doesn’t look right on my petite frame. (Photo)

Question

5’5 117 lbs age 52. Want to reverse my bbl . The procedure was a huge mistake. Want the fat transfer reversed ASAP! Please advise as I’m not sleeping or eating properly. See surgeon for post op Thursday. He has his credentials and is an Elite doctor. I’m happy with the Lipo to my tummy, flanks and arms . I didn’t want the fat to go to waste so he suggested fixing my flat little bum. I told him I wanted it small and to fill the imperfections. It’s a disaster to say the least . Appreciate your feedback.

Try to be patient. Things can look really "funny" and unnatural early post op. Things will call down a lot and ~50% of the fat injected will be lost over 3-6 months. It is not really safe or the best idea to go back into surgery ~1 week after the first surgery. Your body needs time to heal.

It is difficult from the picture to understand what are the issues.  I would need your before photos and an exam to be more helpful.
