I had outer thighs/hip fat transfer, how much fat will survive?

CThor15
had outer thighs/hip lipo last October which left a dip on each of my sides & looking square... dr did a revision & it looks a bit better, but now they told me not to sleep on my side (ever) & that only 70% or less of the injected fat will remain... is that accurate?
