Botched fat transfer to lower eyelids? (Photo)

June 13, 2023
Asked By:Calm541541

I’m 33, have had fat transfer to lower eyelids to treat hollows 6 months ago. After the initial swelling went down, the results looked good for the first 2-3 months. Afterwards, it seems that the left over fat accumulated in irregular bags under both eyes. These bumps are not very firm but they look like a hump between my eye and cheek. Is this the permanent result? WAre there any non surgical interventions to help dissipate this fat more?
